I played a gig on Friday which as a festival - sound check was rushed, the PA had some buzzing, we had a dep drummer etc....
After the gig I had a message from a punter saying the guitar sound was one of the best he had heard in a long time! No prompting....
Now he could have been referencing the other guitarist who uses a Helix but given I play most of the main parts, I think it was related to me!
So why am I posting this? Given I don't tweak much and my playing is only a reasonable level, it shows that out of the box the Kemper sounds great direct into a PA and it served as a reminder to me that whilst I'm always looking for improvements, this 10 year old piece of gear still nails it for me!
Just saying....
