Just turn your monitors up or Kabinet and walk over to it and play high gain. All the feedback you want, or don't want. 
Feedback generator wanted like the Digitech Freqout

Come on. You are comparing bread to the north pole.

He's joking. BayouTexan is this forums trickster.

Oh how I wish it was that easy with the Kemper. It all depends on the profile. Same with the QC. Since that new fender TMP has a Feedbacker, I figured it would be a cinch for Kemper.
As always, please and thank you

this is a 7 year old request. until today no response from Kemper.
+1000 bump up

+1001 bump lol

I have a Freqout but would expect Kemper can make it better.
-
+1002 This would be great.

hi ingolf,
just curious: what is it that makes the Line 6 better or different than the freqout?
how do they call it?
thank you

It‘s called the Feedbacker and was introduced in Helix FW 3.70 for the whole Helix Family.
Firstly, there are more parameters to tweak than in the Freqout to taylor the effect to your needs.
Secondly, of course you can store all the parameters per patch which is very convenient as it allows you to switch from extreme to moderate to subtle settings in a live environment without tweaking knobs. -
While you're waiting.
Put in a pitch block set it to the overtone you want (+5, unison, +12 etc. and have it fade in with morph when you want it.

I was also thinking that it would be cool to use morph to change the overtone in real time ;). Good idea though. Morph would bring a really amazing capability to a feedback.
I think, as guitar players, the different and sometimes unpredictable feedback overtones you achieve by facing your guitar at different angles to the speaker is one of the things that brings a smile to your face. Perhaps a randomizer for the overtones?

The Helix has this feature in its feedbacker - you can pick an overtone, cycle through them, or have a random one. Putting different overtones at the toe and heel position of the morph exp ped would be cool

That kind of works but it’s not as good as the Freqout. I put a Freqout in front of my Kemper, works great. I find the Kemper pitch shift will warble in an unpleasant way towards the end of the note’s natural sustain when I use vibrato on it. The Freqout sounds more natural.

The Freqout is very good - in fact I'd say its a no-brainer pedal for a pedalboard. As always - if you buy a used one - you'll get your money back in the unlikely event it doesn't float your boat.
The Pete Thorn review video shows how it can be used to make all kinds of cool sounds.
The model in the Helix is very good too (I've got both to compare), with more variables for triggering the onset of feedback, the note chosen to use for the overtone and the nature of the overtone itself. Its significantly more versatile than the Freqout. Its this which we could replicate in the Kemper (its been posted about before this thread). Solving the warble..... that'd need a pitch block that fixes on a note.... rather than getting distracted by a nearby notes.

I think the Hellraiser works pretty cool.

I play in ears (i.e. no cab), so that won't work.

Does the Digitech unit provide added sustain?
(like those Gary Moore infinite fedbacks/sustains)Not really - but it will maintain the tone it generates as long as it can hear the note - which can fade considerably relative to the generated tone.
To generate realistic feedback at bedroom levels - get one of these. Or similar. A hollowbody archtop electric.
When you want feedback - face the speaker.
