External IR

hello,

When recording do you guys use external IRs or stick with the profile cab? Have started to enjoy external IRs more but that also makes me feel like I'm not using my Kemper to full use when I do that. Thoughts?

I have never had any luck with external providers IRs, always made the amp sound extremely fizzy and I am talking Marshall IRs and some of the big name providers (can't remember any at the mo). Recorded, xou le tracked or quad tracked makes it worse.

I find what's best is to pick a cab from a profile you really like and then change the amp section, you will find the cab makes more of a difference than the amp but you will get some variety in sound.

Personally I use choptones 800ZW with Deadlights 4x12 V30 cab and I always go back to that cab.

What I can't vouch for is IR packs from Kemper profilers as I am generally happy with the cab they choose.

Hope that helps

Mike

When recording, I use external IR's in my DAW as I blend a few amps and use complimentary cabs to get a wider spread. Luckily the main cab I favour, I have as both IR and Kemper cab.
