On many forums, I read there is demand for a lower cost Kemper, using a bare bones reduced hardware spec, with limited I/O.
Perhaps in 2014, there is room for Kemper to adopt the TC Electronics Toneprint concept, or Digitech Istomp concept for a new product from Kemper?

Perhaps make a small $600 stomp box that employs the KPA technology, but no direct profiling,no FX loop - simply Guitar In and Stereo Out and a GUI Editor and a USB port to load all our *.kipr files . - now that would be cool!
The sheer elegance of the existing KPA user interface and sound and looks have raised the bar. It deserves all its recent 5 star ratings and awards.
