Hello!
So after much consideration and watching countless hours of tutorials and amp-shootouts on youtube I finally decided that a Kemper rack was the way to go. I'd used an old Line 6 XT live since forever and though I thought it sounded great 10 years ago the time had come to put it to sleep. Obviously the Kemper is miles away from that old workhorse.
I play semi-professionally in various cover-bands and do some production work on the side. I will probably stop using software amps altogether since most of them can't really hold a candle to the Kemper. Oh, and when I find the time I also play in a death metal band called The Forsaken.
I've only had the time to use it on one gig and noodled around with it in my home studio so far but I'm pretty blown away by the sound and variation you can get from this thing. Originally a big draw for me was the ability to make profiles since I have a few friends with great sounding amps and a recording studio but after a few hours on the rig exchange I don't really see the point anymore since there are literally thousands of great (and the occasional bad…) sounding profiles.
Anyways, cheers and I'm looking forward to exploring the forum.
