The clever bit is how Kemper have created their tone stacks to replicate how the real amp works. These can and are only created by Kemper as " presets".
"Amp Models"!
A preset is something else entirely

If I know the settings where do I apply those settings?
it's all explained in the manual
-
short version:
a) the amp in question must be on the list of Amp Models included in OS10
b) the settings at the moment of PROFILING have to be known -
Ich kenn mich mit der Erstellung von Rigs (noch) nicht aus, aber gibt es denn nicht so eine Art Normalisierung, durch welche diese extremen Lautstärkesprünge vermieden werden können?
kurze Version: Nein.
Die Lautstärkenwahrnehmung ist recht kompliziert und abhängig von der Dynamik, dem Verzerrungsgrad und den Frequenzbereichen und das Ganze ändert sich dann auch noch je nach Abhörlautstärke.
Dazu kommt das es auch hier leider einen Loudness War gibt - gemäß der Prämisse 'Lauter ist besser' drehen manche Herstellen von PROFILEs ihre Rigs lauter um im Gegensatz zu der Konkurrenz lauter (-> besser) zu erscheinen.
Der Factory Content und alle Rig Packs sind von uns angepasst worden um genau das zu vermeiden, aber darüber was in der Rig Exchange erscheint können (und wollen) wir eigentlich keinen Einfluss nehmen. -
how is your monitoring situation?
are you listening to the mic'ed signal only? -
Best Comp pedal I ever head was the Thorpy Fat General. Sold it after matching the sound with the KPA comp
nice!
care to share the settings?
please? -
Thanx
I had humbuckers in the guitar.
maybe shielding foil on (the back of) the pickgurad and shielding paint for the electronics compartment would help

As I implied, I cannot see how it would be a plus making a profile that has the exact EQ of the actual amp. It sucks and it's easy to make amps like this sound like crap adjusting the controls the way you normally might think is needed.
for someone with a brighter sounding guitar/pickup, it might be useful to be able to adjust the mids and treble a bit, to essentially achieve the the same tone you're after - since we do have the JCM800 Amp Model avalable, it would only make sense to use this tonestack instead of the generic Kemper tonestack, to keep things as authentic as possible.

If you want to see a bunch of people losing their collective minds while speculating about Fender's new folly, go to the Gear Page.
14 pages and just 24 hours old.
"Impressive. Most impressive."
let me guess... another "Kemper-Killer"?
What's the count up to now? 10? 15?

Sorry Don, I didn't meant to advert anything (I'm not linked anyhow with Fender). Just general knowledge, and the powered FR cab is for all digital devices.
Don't want to upset anyone here
It's all good, just two identical posts about the same thing, apparently right after the news hit was a bit much for my taste
What I meant was, that this is not a press release mirror site, we had the same issue in the past once or twice, so I thought it might be a good idea to re-state that.
Please don't just copy and paste press releases, this subforum is probably more about 'Other Gear' in context with the PROFILER (like DAW and audio interface issues), or at the very least about personal experiences with certain equipment worth sharing.
Thanks -
threads merged.
please be more careful not to create double posts - especially in the 'Other Gear' section, as this is by no means the focus of this forum.
This is not a news/press release site, there are plenty of dedicated websites for that sort of thing. -
So, I guess that means a NO.
not necessarily.
what I wrote is my opinion based on my experience, but I do not make the decisions of what will be implemented and what not. -
As I finished writing this I just remembered the bride and groom had a neon sign of thier last on the wall behind their table roughly 10ft away. Maybe this was the cause?
yes, these things are horrible.
I still think a humbucker could have been the solution.
I love singlecoils in all the shapes and sizes, but since playing live again, I converted my live guitars to humbuckers only - there are some surprisingly good singlecoil sized humbuckers available that have the sound I'm looking for without the hum. -
The Bass was on 3 middle 3, mid 3 and treble 2.5 presence 3. It's not a liquid profile. The EQ on these 800s are so strange and interactive they can be set so many different ways to be good and lots of ways to be horrible. I know a lot of guys like to have the mids up on these amps but IMO that's what can be bad. It gets much louder that way but if you dial the mids back, it lets you push it more without becoming strident. Once you really get things cranking the EQ does less and less. This profile was done at volume of about 4, about as loud as you can yell!
thank you
assuming that with 'volume' you mean Master Volume, what was Preamp Volume set to? -
were you using singlecoils? did humbuckers also produce the same problem?
-
is this a Liquid Profile, or if not, do you have the settings so it can be retro-fitted?

I like to be distracted. I like visual aids. I would much rather sliders than knobs on EQ.
the issue is that after the physical phenomenon of sound is translated to electric impulses (close enough), the brain can and will act on what and how we hear.
If you are convincing your brain you are changing the sound, maybe by turning a knob on an EQ that isn't even part of the signal chain, your brain can work the expected results into an 'audible' change. This is why the 'producer channel' and similar contraptions 'work'.
It is your mind imposing it's expectations on the 'translated to software' signals.
Our visual sense is the strongest/the one we most rely on everyday, and that is why a representation of an EQ can actually fool you if you believe in it enough - and if you don't believe in it, what's the point of having such a thing. -
Unless its a Steinberger TransTrem 😃
I actually thought about including this in my post but decided against it to make the point clearer and because it's a relatively obscure (but super impressive nonetheless) vibrato unit
-
Therefore you could look at the vibrato effects in the KPA depending upon what you are trying to achieve..
A vibrato effect will however change the pitch of the signal evenly, whereas a mechanical vibrato will detune each string to a different degree, which gives it a unique flavour.
A have a Les Trem II on a Yamaha SG2000 and a 339 and they are great for adding nice, smooth modulation. -
Trust your ears, nothing else matters, really.
some of the better EQ plugins even have a setting that hides the graphic representation of the EQ curve since it can be distracting.
