Plugged in the USB B on the back and voila! Rig Manager.
Thanks all for the ass-istance!

... and welcome from me too
Good to see you sorted out.
The rig manger is an essential part of getting the most from your Kemper, even if it could go farther.
Welcome here to the most times happy Crew!

Welcome!
Greetings. Glad you're up and running...now start hoarding profiles

Seriously, how long did it take most folks to "audition" all the rigs?! Holy smokes! Have to sorta pick your flavor and go from there.
I feel like a wine taster, after sampling about 50-60 Marshall rigs, they all start 'tasting' the same. I guess I need to cleanse my pallet with some Fender chimey goodness.

Welcome, It takes awhile but you'll enjoy the journey
Thanks!

Go slow. It's impossible to audition them all in due time.
Thanks!

For me, the real fun began when I started getting commercial profiles. A few of the factory presets are gems but when you start getting commercial ones, the percentage of usable profiles goes through the roof.
I was beginning to feel like the unit was perhaps not all it was cracked up to be, until I bought some MBritt profiles.
Welcome!

Welcome!
The world is full of amps. Kemperism is spreading fast. You can spend a lifetime on testing profiles, cause they will keep coming. Even when Kemper stops making them, users won't. Until we have 'em all
Congratulations on sorting out that problem! Welcome to the forums.
Hello and welcome !! Glad you got it sorted.
Welcome - used to own an Ultra and II as well.
Welcome!! I am a convert from an Axe FX 2 myself...........Can't imagine the need to ever go back, and never happier to be a part of this awesome community!!
Enjoy your new piece of legendary German Engineering!!

The Kemper talks to my Audi!
Armin/e51v50h - any particular reason why you guys both switched from the AxeFx II? As I said in my intro, no more factory support for the ultra and no more (new) amps led me to Kemper.

Welcome. What kind of sound do you prefer? What kind of guita do you play? There are lots of good uncommercial rigs in Rig ex. If you are looking for very good mesa boogie rigs, check out: thumas, djemass, björn gottfridsson. Genius profiles!

I switched because it felt like a processor....i know that it is way more to some people but to me I found an amp model I liked (Friedman HBE) then proceeded to add some flavor....effx. In the process of adding effx I completely got immersed in the millions of options and in doing so found myself not really thinking about the amp anymore but solely on the coloration and refinement of the sound as a whole. It's really hard for me to explain but it's as if all of the connection and feeling that you get when playing through a great amp......it was just an aftersight and was just an afterthought. It didn't feel like a real amp, but merely a simulated amp that sounds great but to me I felt that it lacked that real feeling and connection that comes from playing a real amp.
The Kemper on the other hand after the same amount of test driving time it is the complete opposite. I find myself browsing through the amp sections and as I audition one I can do a heavy pick attack across the strings and you can feel that response right back......it's not rounded off and sterile so to speak but articulate and defined!! Even a bad profile still makes me feel like I am playing a real amplifier, not a processor. I actually enjoy just playing the profiles with slight reverb and haven't really went straight to effects to try to fill the void that I felt with the Axe Fx 2. The layout is great too.......the Axe was just too many key presses to get to the screens I was searching for. I am however not saying that one is better than the other, just simply stating that for the reasons that I have outlined above......I simply found it hard to connect.....to feel like the sound coming from the Axe FX 2 was a genuine sound but more like a polished studio grade processor, the Kemper captured the ability to feel the amp and to polish it to your liking as needed but without the feeling that I am playing a processor first.
Hopefully this makes sense to others.
