Hey all how to send kemper to external poweramp and then send it back to kemper, so i can monitor from kemper. Before i had Guitar>kemper>tube poweramp>Loadbox>twonotes cab.
I know it looks crazy but it felt and sounded amazing, but the twonotes cab died. So now looking for solution without having to spend €250
I own a Kemper Stage and a Fractal FM9. In opinion, you are not missing anything when it comes to the sound and feel of the amps. I like the sound and feel of the amps much more on the Kemper than the FM9. The Fractal stuff has more gain than the real amps do, IMHO, and that affects the feel and tone a lot. The only thing the Fractal units have that Kemper does not are some crazy effects that can make your guitar sound like a synth or keyboard. If you don't have the need for something that is way out there like that, you probably wouldn't feel like you spent your money well if you bought one.
I have had some good luck with profiling an amp with an OD in front of it. The amp that I did it with does not have a drive channel in it, it is strictly a clean amp. The OD pedals that I have used in front of it were set to light drive settings. The ones that worked best for me were the Fulltone OCD, Jetter Gold Standard and Keeley Red Dirt. I use these pedals a lot with the amp I profiled. I tried it with a Friedman Dirty Shirley and that didn't turn out nearly as good. It was darker in tone than the pedal through the amp. I can EQ the heck out of it and get it to usable but it just doesn't have the dynamics and feel that the other profiles have.
For the kemper im getting good results putting a clean tube boost pedal infront ( dickinson d1) and then running the kemper into my friedman fx return then two notes cab and powered monitors. This makes it much more alive to play. When recording in to pro tools the kemper straight can match album tones well but to play album tones suck, all the freq are not there. so this method give most satisfaction to play in the room. Man it took me five years of trying everything to this point. Without the pedal infront and running into a tube poweramp it just was not as good as an average tube amp to play. but big thanks for reply, this community is great
ps i found using most boost pedals infront were dark, using a tube based pedal really opened up the freq range. But the friedman clean boost running at 18v came close
Thankyou!!!!! this i wanted to know, you save me a lot of money. i have kemper di profiles i love and was thinking im missing something not having the fractal. The next question would be how it sounds/feels vs the synergy but that would be for a other thread prob. man thanks again👍😁🍻
For me the result it s 100%
I made profile of fractal,line 6 and a Universal audio dream 65,the profile sound how the original source,with the same monitor reference
hey has anyone profiles a axe fx patch with the kemper and if so does it sound and feel the same? if not how close does the kemper get 80%, 95% .
hey is anyone using the kemper as an it loader? I love lasse lammerts irs but he does not sell them. there are just his profiles and his stl software. But for us using tube amps it sucks, was using two notes cab with york and ml ir but now getting better results running the kemper after the reactive load box and switching off eq and amp block so just using cab part. Sounds really good. like buying a mercedes and only using it for the cup holder
Can confirm that the kemper sounds and feels better into tube poweramp.
can confirm, they were quality. I got the marshall, Dual rec and mark V
Ok its a good pack but dam its bright. wish it was merged but cant have everything in life. So switch off cab and run different irs , i am getting good results better then and commercial direct profiles i have.
hey all, looking for a killer mesa os ir, From only merged profiles, what you favourite?
I have been using lasse lammert cab from his single profile stl pack shadow work. It good but alittle bright.
very helpful thread!
Its a scam, Stock profiles is all you will ever need. But if you want the kemper to sound good then you need to buy or profile yourself
hey sorry all
thought it would be obvious this comment is nonsensical.
Paid profiles are great
Rig exchange is great
dont drink and post

in general with direct profiles going into poweramp vs the real amp, the direct profile will be a little darker due to the profile having the power amp tone in the profile and also in the tube amp. I compensate for this with the eq. Add 0.4 -0.7 pres on the kemper then adjust the pres control to taste on the real amp.
thanks that thread was helpful
sound like im not missing anything
