What's Next for Kemper? Let's Speculate....

  • The Profiler Model referred to in this thread is ...
    ☑️ Profiler Head/Rack

    Since we all love to speculate on what Kemper is working on, what profiling V2 will be like and everything else, Let's have a thread to talk about what's next.

    I'll start with a job posting on Kemper's main site.

    I find it interesting they are looking for someone with embedded Linux experience. I believe the new chip in the MKII will run Linux, but I have no idea if it's part of some plan going forward. Not sure where else Linux fits in either.

    From the job post:
    Low-level programming for Linux embedded platform

    • Driver Development Linux

    Your qualifications

    • Good knowledge of embedded Linux
    • Ideally experience with Yocto and BitBake
    • Experience with version control, CI and code reviews
    • Ideally, a musical background
  • Assembly Language is super fast, and the fastest I know of. The only thing that can be faster is when we get Quantum computing unless that's al BS.

    Assembly language is not inherently "fast". Any language will compile to the same machine language. Assembly does allow for more control which, with some effort, can lead to improved performance, and Kemper does exactly that. However, that is often offset by the fact that it ties you to a specific processor, thus making it difficult to migrate your code to newer and faster processors.
