Hey,
does the direct send out get digitized, or is it dry thru?? I'd quite like to be able to assign the noise-gate to it, but I assume it is not digitized. Just wanted to ask!

Reference Manual page 12 Output Sources seems to provide the direct out options available.
Right... just read the reference manual Drew! Answer is that it can send out a few different signals...
Output Sources:
Within the Output menu you can modify the routing to the physical outputs, or in other words, select the
signal sources for the outputs. If you feel that every output delivers the signal that you need, then feel free
to skip this chapter. The factory settings for the signal sources cover most of the regular applications.
Each output can tap a number of different points in the signal flow. Here is a description of signal sources,
which can be tapped. Note, that only a subset of sources are available for each individual outputs. The following
listing is not necessarily in order of appearance, but the best order for description.
Off Self-explanatory – the output is muted.
Git Analog (Only available and default setting for the Direct Output).
The pure and clean instrument signal is sent to the Direct Output by an analog
splitter, no AD/DA conversion is taking place. The analog signal level is the same as
on the instrument input. Useful for reamping or running a second amp in parallel.
Git + Processing (Not available for S/PDIF Output).
Similar to “Git Analog” but AD conversion is taking place. This puts the noise gate
from the input section and the volume pedal in the signal path (if volume pedal is set
to “Pre Stomps”).
Note: The volume control of the respective outputs will have no impact on the source
settings “Git”, because they are made to reproduce the original instrument volume.
Git Studio Similar to “Git + Processing”, but here the instrument signal is sent out at studio
level, which is much louder as the original level. Thus no separate DI box is needed
to record the pure instrument for reamping purposes. Since the instrument volume is
high, the recommended leveling of “Clean Sens” in the Input Section is important.
Stack This signal is tapped directly behind the “Stack” section and does not include any
post amp effects.

You can also use the different outputs to run a 'wet/dry/wet' rig for huge tones.
My plan is to combine the Kemper with my Diezel D-Moll in a live setting, so I can do something like this:
Program 1 - D-Moll Channel 1 set clean, D-Moll effects loop off
Program 2 - D-Moll Channel 2 gain set low for crunchy cleans, D-Moll effects loop off
Program 3 - D-Moll Channel 1, D-Moll effects loop on, Kemper running a direct profile of the D-Moll channel 2, with the gain set high for my mid-gain rhythms
Program 4 - D-Moll Channel 1, D-Moll effects loop on, Kemper running a direct profile of the D-Moll channel 3, with the gain set lowish for my crunchy rhythm
Program 5 - D-Moll Channel 3 set to my high-gain metal tone, D-Moll effects loop off
