Thanks to both of you. You were of great help! With these information, I can set up something nice. Appreciated!

Anyone got a good profile to mimic the sound of this awesome solo? What effects are used here apart from Wah and Delay?

Or let me ask this:

How should I approach recording a rhythm part with my Kemper and ensure that it sounds good on regular headphones? The fact that it sounds good on my speakers isn't reliable because the room vibrations add fullness to the sound and that might be misleading if with headphones, the guitar sounds so dry.

Ok, I will do tomorrow when I have time. The sound sounds very... dry. No fullness. It sounds like I connected my guitar to a 50$ amplifier. It's fuzzy and dry. With the Amplifi75 as a box, it sounds good. Bassy, full, great note seperation on complex chords. When listening to the recordings with my headphones, all this fullness is gone and it just sounds harsh to the ears.

You'll hear what I mean tomorrow.

I can't imagine what I am doing wrong. The gain on the interface is very low so it doesn't clip. Everything is connected like seen in YouTube tutorials. Yet, the sound that comes through the interface sounds absolutely disgusting.

I also noticed when I use lead profiles with my headphones plugged in directly into the Kemper, I have to turn off reverb and delay becauses you hear the guitar double.

Thanks for the input. I checked everything and all the settings are fine. I noticed that the sound through the headphones is great if I have them directly connected to the Kemper. When I use the headphones on the audio interface, the sound is terrible. Everything recorded through the Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2 sounds terrible. That's why VSTs never worked for me. Is this audio interface bad in general?

Hey everyone,

I have an issue. I want to record my first song with the Kemper Stage Profiler. The guitar sounds amazing through my Amplifi 75 that I use as a speaker, but as soon as I record the audio and listen to it through my headphones, it sounds very dry and harsh. I tried playing with EQ settings, the amplifier settings (definition, clarity, etc.) but it just doesn't sound good. When I listen to recordings of others through my headphones, it sounds great so I doubt my headphones are the reason. I start to wonder if it's the audio interface that is bad because I also never got a good sound with it when I used it for VSTs.

This is my signal chain:
Guitar -> Kemper -> Focusrite Scarlett Solo 2 -> PC (Cakewalk)

I use very good profiles from Andy James.

Thanks guys.

Hey guys. Are there any profiles out there that I could use to mimic the sound of Stranglehold by Ted Nugent?

I know and I appreciate it.

Hey buddy, that's the Shining band from Norway.

The one I linked is from Sweden.

Hey guys.

I am a fan of Shining and I want to cover a few of their songs for practise reasons. However, I have issues finding the perfect rig for that purpose. I am looking for a free or paid rig that offers a sound that is similar to the rhythm guitar in the following songs:
