I am just not sure that this is where Kemper's audience is (in general).
Now, to be clear, I approach this from a live performance standpoint .... and I rarely use more than compression, reverb, and delay (all in fairly light amounts). Having a complex routing system is so far down on my "needs" that it likely lands somewhere south of nicer feeling buttons on the Kemper ;).
I’m of the exact same opinion and the massive number of touring bands using Kemper instead of the others would seem to suggest we are not alone.
It seems like a mistake in product direction to make Kemper into Axe IMO.
totally agree with this. We already have Axe an Helix which are brilliant in there own ways . Rather than try to become an Axe wannabe Kemper need to keep doing things in their own unique way. Keep developing and improving of course but keep pushing the boundaries in new unexpected ways rather that just add “me too” features.
