I'm seriously considering selling up my Marshall gear in favour of the kemper but before I do would dearly love to hear some clips, as dry as possible of some Master lead type sounds played with an SG or even a LP on bridge pickup.
The tones I love are those of the Powerage era and whilst quite different in production styles the Highway to Hell and Let There be rock albums; a dimed clean channel which is very dynamic to touch and warm and saturated without the fizzyness around 6-7khz or artificial artefacts that modellers produce (regardless of EQing). I just want to be sure the Kemper has the degree of attack and tubeness of the real thing. My other battle with modellers or the various power soaks Ive owned ovber the years is not gives that good tight bottom end without introducing a good dollop of mud at the same time.
I have tried most all of the commercial modellers and as mentioned various power soaks but none nail it for me and unfortunately as a home recordist volume is the enemy. I dearly want the kemper to be the answer to the years of disappointment in my home recording exploits and whilst I accept the kemper is unlikely to be plug'n play solution I'd feel much happier opening my wallet with the knowledge that in time I can find what I'm searching for.
Also whilst in the ACDC mode of things my playing buddy has a Firebird and is just as curious about the kempers ability to get close to Malcom Youngs sound. Again any clips with that unit or similar would be appreciated
