It's like having a 5+ year old computer. It may be well built, but I'm sure there are hardware upgrades and other things that can be done to improve the product and what it can do. I know with the Axe-FX, there are hardware changes due to previously expensive components that can now be included due to price decreases.
Usually with a product that gets released. You get user feedback and suggestions to help you redesign it to make a better product in a redesigned version. You can only plan and predict so much on your own when you first release a product. Also, "updates" can only due so much with aging hardware.
I know people are wanting to have USB interface so you don't have to use an interface. But I guess that isn't going to happen with an "update". But I wonder if something like that would require a hardware change to implement and may be why Kemper isn't interested in doing that via an "update".
Also I'd like a redesign of the case/buttons, because I don't really care for the look of the product. That's one of the reasons why I decided to try out an Axe-FX, because I think that is a well designed looking product. The Kemper looks more toyish and lesser quality in terms of looks compared to the Axe-FX. Kemper should get outside help in designing their 2nd version whenever that gets released.
