Hey Ola, Kemper introduced "Liquid Profiling" about 6 months ago, where you can tell the Kemper what kind of amp and tonestack you are using and where the knobs were during profiling. Then the Kemper emulates the function of said amp/tonestack and gives you a very good combination of profiling and simulation. So it can really do both now and allow for a faithful/usable editing of profiles.

@OlaEnglund

5 ай бұрын

Yeah I did play around with the tonestacks a bit. I really just felt that it's more about where the EQ is working when using it. I still prefered the original profile without tweaking bass, middle, treble

Nice man! This intro riff is kille! Awesome stuff! Ola the profilerer

Hey Ola! awesome riffage, bro! Made me pickup my guitar instantly!

Loving the player so far, it has kept me from option paralysis. Found 4 profiles i love and just use them as needed,no more endless tweaking. Using it as a pedal platform and building a board around it.

thats a pretty sweet guitar your playing ola..love the color

Dang! I'm diggin' that Intro Song even more than the Kemper Profiler Player!

I love my kemper and this edition to the kemper family is great for those who cant afford or need its bigger brother.

Nice, Ola, Metropolis! Great song

Going to get one of these for headphone practicing late at night. The small size and ability to use my current Kemper rigs and stream Bluetooth audio makes it a no brainer for me.

I'm delighted to see a good review about the Kemper player. It's still very relevant, especially given the liquid profiles that are now available. I believe there will be more utilities available that have not been released just yet with the unit but you'll have to pay for them. Thanks Ola.

Sounds like it has extra built-in effects that are behind a pay-wall 🙄

I was given an introduction to the Kemper Player at the headquaters in Recklinghausen. There will be an update to fix some bugs and add more slots for effects (up to ten I think). Also the power adapter is outside of the kemper and not grounded, there is a noise when you only use your headphones and nothing else but the guitar is attached - they are searching for a solution for this.

When I went to a guitar store, I made sure to always have my Kemper with me. If I found and amp I liked, I would ask if they would let me profile it. Some did, some did not. If they did, I would bring it in, set it up and profile it. So I knew EXACTLY what the original sounded like. When I got it home, I would try it out while the memory was still fresh in my head. Perhaps conformation bias made me believe it was a perfect copy, but it was amazing. I "collected" eleven profiles of very high demand amps that way. I even got a Dumble that had a price tag of $110k. But eventually it came back to haunt me. I left it in the trunk and came back out, it was gone. Someone smashed my window, popped the trunk lid open, cleaned me out. Whoever has my Kemper got it preloaded with some KILLER tones. I hope they choke on it.

@johnpaulstez personally I'm not a big wireless or battery operated type of person, but I would strongly suggest the pod go. I actually get a lot of my IRs from tone hunt (for free) and haven't had any problems, and the line6 custom pre set sharing with the community is even better. I use mine everyday day and I'm using it right now for my low volume practice on my monitors. And you'll find countless versions of a JCM800 and plexi' cause everyone has their own ideal sound for how every amp should sound, but that's subjective for what sounds "best" to you. I have 3 JCM800 presets and 4 Superlead and 2 plexi' that just sound amazing, you hear them and you're like this 🥴

Wouldnt it be great if this would also have a tube or power amplifier for live playing with a band? Also if you could add your ipad to this thing on top for easy set switching, where you could switch effects and amps easily per drag and drop would be awesome. Well i saw there is a function to connect your ipad, but the software looks horrible to me for easy and fast use on stage. If that would be refined with good UI design, i could get into it. Also Important to me is when i would use this thing, that i have a very similar feeling to a tube amp while playing.

I'm sending this message directly from Curitiba, Brazil, I really like your videos, big hug🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Hi Ola, any chance you'll review the new KMA Machines Endgame pedal?

I run a rack Kemper through a 90 watt 6L6 powered Mesa simul class into an old school 200 watt EVL 12" cab and it sounds as good as my real Mesa and Fryette tube amps. It might sound slightly different in some ways but sounds just as good when pushed by real tubes with some class A magic in the mix. Kemper needs a good amp/cab rig to let it shine.

This would have been good value if it traded blows with the ToneX pedal price-wise but with its current cost, it can't compete.

Kudos to Kemper for still carrying the torch though. Hope to see more, improved, products from them in the near future.
