I’ve been trying for a while to make profiles of my Mesa F-30 without any luck.
The clean profile seems to be almost dead on both as studio and direct profiles, but my drive channel profiles really doesn’t even come close.
I’m using a Sennheiser e-906 directly to the Kemper and not using a mixer or mic-pre. For the direct profiles I use the Kemper D.I.
For listening I use a Sennheiser HD-25 that I’ve been using for many years both in studio and live. It’s a headset that I know very well and that I’m used to hearing my amps through. It also quite efficiently shuts out sound of the amp in the room.
When the profiling process is done the profiled version sounds more mid boosted and harsh, and it seems to be lacking quite a bit in the bass register. Still there is absolutely some kind of resemblance to the reference amp.
When I then run the refining process it ends up getting further away from the reference.
The amp is not running very loud, but quite close to what I would normally play.
I’ve got two identical amps and have had the same experience with the both of them.
So what could be the problem in my profiling process?
Are there just some amps the Kemper can’t profile correctly?
