I tried my Carvin EM900 setup with my Kemper Profiling Amp last Friday.
The good things:
1) I could hear VERY clearly my guitar for the first time at this restaurant.
2) The clean tones were acceptable.
3) I definitely did not need to set up a room mic....I could hear the band with no problem since we're
practically on top of each other as it is.
The bad:
My distorted tones were absolutely AWFUL. They were very ratty sounding and nothing how it sounded
out
front. In my ear plugs it sounded like cabinet emulation was off (or
like plugging a guitar into a BOSS DS-1 then directly to the mixer.) BUT the emulation was definitely on for all outputs.
I'm
going to have to use the EQ feature for the Monitor Out jack (which I
was using to send a signal to the Carvin) and try and tame the fizzy
tone.
Does anybody else have this problem with IEMs for the dirty tones?
