Man, everytime I pull up this profile after months of not playing it and crank it up through my yamaha DXR 12's, I sometimes just sit and wonder why I don't just use this profile exclusively! It is the "clean' profile, but I believe the gain is set to about 3.4, and it has the perfect amount of breakup. I put michael britts compressor settings up front, delay to taste, add a TS to switch on for higher gain parts (drive about 2.0, tone to taste, volume at unity/noon) and I swear this is still one of the best tones to ever come out of the KPA. I cranked up the mids a bit too, but other than that, no tweaking. This profile loud is almost exactly my ideal tone, and still the best matchless profile out there in my opinion, although I very much love Michael Britts HC30 profiles as well. This is the perfect breakup tone for me, just a great profile for those that may have overlooked it (easy to do) or just immediately deleted it, a true gem I think.
*Edit*
I would also like to add the 65 amps London profile, called tremdrive I believe. This profile was created with an R44, I wish there was more info about this. Was this an AEA R44, does anyone know? This profile has absolute STUNNING clarity and top end chime, something the R44 is known for, and it shines on this. I add a pure boost up front and a compressor and this profile with my tele has almost unmatched clarity and chime, I am not sure I can think of another profile that has this much clarity right off the bat, atleast to me with my american Tele. This profiled immediately went on my pedalboard.
To me this is what is great about the kemper, you can often go back to older profiles or other profiles that may not have been your style, but as you as a player change and your tastes change, it is great to revisit profiles you once turned your back on. Or, in my case, you become more accustomed to what actually works and what tones work live or in the studio for you after listening for sometime on FRFR, or studio monitors, FOH mixes etc.
I urge everyone to try this profile as well, and what is more, the CAB on this profile (tremdrive) is one of maybe 5 cabs I have actually saved in the kemper. I am generally not a fan of swapping cabs (this could change with coming firmware however), but this cab really has something special about it. What I mean is, it is transparent enough that it lets the amp you are pairing the cab with shine through, verses where most cab swaps generally end up sounding almost the same as the original profile the cab is with. For some reason, I don't feel this is the case. I locked this cabinet and scrolled through some of my favorite profiles and couldn't believe how transparent the cabinet actually was. One of my favorite profiles is ands 58 pro from the fantastic pack. sure enough, this cab sounded like a real 58 pro micd through this cabinet with an R44, or as close as I think it would sound anyways. Quite impressive. I couldn't find a bad sounding profile with this cab attached. I believe it is a matchless 2x12 cab, I do not remember the speakers though. Anyways give it a shot, I am curious to see if anyone else feels the same as I do about the cab. The R44 is an extremely high end ribbon mic, and the clarity once again is just fantastic, I think a lot of people will enjoy this.
