So since I got my kemper I had been using my buddy's Morgan Dual 40 profile that he made through a Palmer PDI-03 which is just fantastic at gig levels. Sounds dark at home but at gig level it has the nice voxy midrange and top end. I bump up the gain maybe halfway on that profile since it's pretty clean out of the box.

However, like the dog with a bone seeing its reflection in the water, a few months ago I started experimenting with other profiles (TAF AC30, both TopJimi AC30s, Mbritt's profile packs including his AC30s). They sound fine, maybe a little bright at home levels or when played alone through my IEMs. But when playing with a track through IEMs they sort of disappear and sound super tinny.
Last week I played a whole show that I knew I was going to be recorded (just for the band) with the TopJimi AC30 NORMAL profile just to experiment. Not even the top boost ones because those are just an ice picky mess in my opinion. I made sure the sound guy left my EQ flat with just a 200hz or so HPF as is common for guitars. When I listened to the mix I was just shocked at how thin my guitar sounded. Very tinny, no body at all, even on my awesome duesenberg bridge humbucker that just crushes on my regular Dual 40 profile. My tele was just ear piercing. I kind of knew this going into the show but I wanted to verify in a live environment since that's a lot different from playing to a track at home.
Anyone else experience this? I have no stomp EQs on, master & monitor EQs are flat. Monitoring with wireless IEMs mixed from the monitor desk.
