Not a huge fan of the Kemper Comp, although many seem to love it. Would love to see at least a couple of different compressors with the regular terminology- ratio, attack, release, threshold etc.
The delays and reverbs have been updated, the drives were recently updated.......isn't it time for a compressor update now?
Totally agree, for some reason the compressor does not work very well form me. Would like to see more options.
Need more Comps for guitars too!
I researched the Kemper Compressor, and so far, I understand that a digital compressor can not give you the same performance as an analog one. So, I am looking at a Keeley to put in front.
I had the Kemper for about 8 months now and just cannot seem to get it's compressor to work how I would like it to.

Why would that be the case?
Plugins for DAW are digital and seem capable of very good emulations of classic analog compressors.
I've said this before but IMHO a good LA2A Levelling Amplifier emulation will be hugely-appreciated by many bass players, myself included.
Ever since Line 6 included one as the default in the Bass Pod xt (I think it was that unit), mapped to a dedicated "amount" knob, I've felt that something like this is essential and should be present on all bass-amp emu's.
In essence, it would allow one-stop levelling that results in the bass sounding perfectly-glued-in and doing its job reliably.
I use a Boss CP-1X in front of my Kemper Stage. It's like no other pedal compressor I've used. It's seems to act more like a multi-band studio compressor to me.

Maybe it's as simple as compressing a digital vs analog signal?? The Kemper comp is hard for me to dial in what I want. I have to max it out to get a similar sound to Keeley's Comp at 12 o'clock like in the intro on Don Carr's video...
If Kemper would model the Keeley then problem solved on using a stomp in front for this.
BayouTexan I agree that the Kemper compressor doesn't do it for me. I would like the ability to have a range of compressor styles that could do something like my Cali76 for example. However, that is a matter of programming decisions rather than digital "can't" do it.
