Wouldn't be surprised if new hardware is in the future - but I'm not missing anything major at the moment. My wish list is less about the basic tones, and more about features on the fringes. Such as:
- better tuner options (sweetened tunings anyone?)
- more control over the leslie effects (like setting the max and min values, which I don't believe you can do at the moment)
- synth style patches (I'll take mono... but poly is even better )
- switchable mono/stereo power amp internally (why they simply bridged a 600 watt amp to mono is a point of confusion for me)
- better remote control (i.e., wifi connect) options for the editor (which is missing in the Toaster, but addressed on the Stage)
I hear people asking for things like multi-amps going left right, "better" effects, etc. For myself, as a gigging and occasional session guitarist, I don't need those capabilities, and never understood why it was so important to others... but that's just me I guess. I think Kemper 1.0 sounds fantastic for what I do. Is FM9 or QC "better?" At this point, I don't need to pursue that line of questioning. I'm sure I could work with any of them, but Kemper, out of the box, just worked for me, more so than other "amp simulator" solutions I've used in the past. Oh, and I've used just about all of them (like most of you ).
and now for the obligatory "ymmv" -
Peace Out,
