No, it's a KPA Profiler which sits in a rack on the floor of the stage most of the times to be invisible from front. I use the remote only and usually do no tweaking during a gig.
At home the rack is sitting on kind of a side-board.
I was only joking based on your comment “the floor” ? and the current frenzy around the Stage format. While I’m delighted for everyone that has been waiting for a floor unit I just can’t see any advantage over my Toaster and Remote.
I must admit, I was also making a little bit of fun regarding the best "stands" for the Toaster / Rack ... I like having my equipment "grounded" for the simple reason that it would never fall down because of someone on stage before, during or after the show ...
A list of things I use or have used,
Folding dinner tray
Laptop table or similar from Wal-Mart
Kpa bag (needs improvements imo)
The Bag on top of a pedal board case
Custom rolling rack for toaster with 6u space rack
One of these hauls the toaster, remote, 3 expression pedals and cables. Makes a good Toaster stand.
also an option MuddySludge
I sit mine on a multiple guitar case stand, and have room for the guitars I take to the gig.
Hey Awesome... was there any of those that worked best in your opinion? Most stable for instance?
Well none have failed me yet so they are all stable although I guess the rolling is the most durable of them all. Any of the trays are fine but I wouldn't go bouncing around like a lunatic around those or most I guess for that matter. The fold up Laptop tray with x bracing seems like the best of those.
The tool cases people are suggesting seem like the best. I'll probably move to one of those some day.
Thanks Saint.. ya that looks promising.... i saw some other beamer stands.. a bit comparable but more like a small but high table with wheels..
This is more compact and smaller to carry too I guess..
Is it stable enough?
Yep, definitely. It’s very heavy-duty & rock solid.
Have tried below for toaster stands. K&M is great for laptop, as it has extra/separate mouse surface, and platform can be angled, which is useful for laptop, but no point for toaster.
For Toaster stand, my preference is The Adam Hall - is more robust - its legs are much solid and stable, and it’s about 1/3 of The price - for about 35 eur its great value.
Once editor is released, we should be able to do everything with laptops, and leave toaster in rack !
Still looking for a rack solution - already have a 19’ rack shelve on sliders to mount toaster, but need to look for rack that can contains toaster + extra 3U ( 2 x audio intf , 1x furmann)
Currently i have nr 3 and nr 2 combined: laptop sits on top of toaster
1) Koning & Meyer stand

3) Adam Hall stand
Here’s mine in action
Thanks y'all, guys!! Some promising stuff amongst this!! Enough to think about
@JDVW, normally I did everything from an computer editor (with previous guitar effects) - I must say that the toaster's knobs feel great to work with so not sure if I want to go back to laptop editing as yet again.... at home maybe, but playing live the hands-on feeling like working a real amp is cool!
You can’t beat hands n knob twiddling in my book.
ya Wheresthedug - I get that same feeling now - for the last 15 years or so I only did computer editing.... have had my toaster for a couple of weeks now and this feels so much easier
Nearly every piece of gear I have with a software editor I don’t use it and non of them have as good a physical interface as the kemper
That’s what I’m saying. The Kemper interface is so easy to use I don’t feel the need for an editor. But even when I use other things that don’t have as intuitive an interface as the Kemper and do have an editor I generally find software editors more hassle than help. It’s just amazing that the Kemper is so easy to use by simply twiddling knobs - a breath of fresh air in a world of mouse clicks and touch screens ?
