Welp
You guys have helped make my decision easy =)
I have decided to go for the Kemper, so should hopefully be ordering one within the next week or two. I think the part that makes it most interesting to me is the fact that you can make it sound like an actual amp & cab combination without it sounding "digital." I spent a lot of time listening to various tones that people made using both the Axe & the Kemper, and to me the Kemper always felt more analog.
I guess another plus is the fact that I recently learned they are made by Access! As the owner of a Virus TI2 Polar, this helped seal the deal for me a bit =P
So thanks for all of the input, guys! It has been appreciated
You won't be disappointed! It is really a powerful piece of studio gear!
