Andy Sneap talks about the Kemper Profiling Amp

[Quax]

Studio related, maybe it's not 100% yet...but in most live situations, I'm pretty sure it will beat a miced amp!
Still waiting for a rack unit.

I've heard it's pretty buggy and freezes quite often, so I wouldn't use it live.

Here's a clip with the right channel turned up to show what I'm talking about.

I'm not saying the Kemper is responsible for those sounds.

Wtf, that's ridiculous

Admit, you played a game on your cellphone at the same time the profiling was done.

So? If that isn´t solved yet it will be soon.

Yeah I heard this last night too but I assumed it was just the usual interference I get using Headphones and plugging into my router. Wierd!

That's brilliant!

You never typed on an iPhone, did you?

I've owned three.


So no.

 

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Maybe in the future it would be cool to pick one of these up, but for now I am perfectly happy with Brett's reamps.

Oh shit, missed that, thanks bro!

Going in to order one this week. Will definately post clips

down 45lbs and training like a bitch

Nice Andy ! You definitely look younger in that video.

We also profiled a 5150 and beat the Kemper's effort using TSE x50 and Ozone's Match EQ. I definitely agree that in a mix you'd struggle to pick out a section of Kemper but I'm equally confident you could drop 5 seconds of TSE + Ozone randomly in a mix containing the real deal and it also be indistinguishable, so for me at least, considering it's price, the bar has to be higher than that and it shouldn't be beaten by a free amp sim & match eq in a straight shootout against a real amp.

Can you post this? I would like to hear a 5150, the Kemper version and the TSE + Ozone beating it.

At the 5:28 minute mark there are some comparison clips, sounds spot in.

Nope. The frequencies may be similar but close your eyes and listen to the two. The first makes you think of a cab blasting in a room, that's how it feels. The second does nothing to me and it's not just because of the irritating highs/highmids it has.

It's in the "LIVE AMP" clip as well.....

We want proof!!

no clips = didn't happen

 

[Nuno Filipe]

^ by ozone what you mean? Using eq and saturation of ozone?

 

[blue_fAng]

Match EQ to create an impulse

 

[Nuno Filipe]

didnt know that ozone had a match eq, Thanks.

 

[Axell Strad]

didnt know that ozone had a match eq, Thanks.

Moreover, the best to date a match eq

.... So I've been listening to Dark Roots Of The Earth non-stop lately... And if any of you have the album, please do me a favor??
Listen through a few songs, then go to track 8 - Throne Of Thorns... The guitar tones continues to hit me as different to the rest of the album... And maybe, maybe I'm just hearing things, but it seems to have something stiff about it that I usually attribute to digital amps.

My gut says that song was rhythms throug Kemper. I wonder if Andy would be willing to shed some light here :/
