Hello guys,
My name is Anton, I'm new Kemper user.)
Here's my first video, I recorded it yesterday using one of the profiles I downloaded here, at this forum. The guitar is brand new Schecter Solo 8. It's my first 8 string, I need some time to get used to it, because the neck is so damn wide....
New Kemper video))

Chugga chugga!

Yeeha. Really nice tight playing Anton.
How are you liking the KPA compared to the axefx2 then? -
-
To my opinion - KPA sounds warmer and more natural...I'm big fan of "brown" sound, and I was unable to dial it on AXE II. I had both Axe FX Ultra and Axe FX II, and older Axe Fx Ultra sounds superior to Axe II (to my ears). At least - I could use my Wampler pedals in a front of it and got a nice results. The effects on KPA are not the same league compare to Axe, but the "source" signal in KPA sounds better imho. P.S. I'm sorry for my english guys.)

Hey Anton, Welcome. Your English is fine. Glad you're liking the KPA.
Most ppl who have tried both seem to prefer the sound of the KPA while agreeing that the axefx can do far more in the way of fx.
I do think the quality of the KPAs fx are excellent, just not as flexible or as numerous as the axefx.
In my case thats a good thing, I prefer the ease of use of the KPA. -
Nice video, it shows the Kemper growing with an 8-strings, and it sound pretty cool!
One question, how is the tune in an 8-string guitar? G-B-E-A-D-G-B-E?
-
Cool - I am glad to handle 6 strings

To Hectrucci :
Thanks)
It's just like a regular 8 string - F#-B-E-A-D-G-B-E, got it this way from Schecter dealer.
I need to practice more on that, it's my first 8 string, and it's bit difficult to do mute the strings because the neck is so wide -
That is very deep it sounds like a bass guitar. Does it use a bass string for the F# ? Cool video Anton
-
Thanks Chris...
Nope, it uses guitar F# string, there are several manufacturers who produce 8 string sets. The interesting thing is that if you make lowest string as drop E, then it will cover anything that could be played both on guitar and a 4 string bass.
