New owner, only had it since the weekend. Tried all of the amps initially but I find that I mostly stick with one or two amps already. I guess that's normal? I have to admit that this unit sounds just like the tube amps I own and have owned, maybe better in some cases. How many amps are most of you using?
Anyone else get stuck on one (or just a few) amps?

I also use only a few.

i got about 800 profiles on the go at the moment,but when it comes to recording i find that i am usually ending up using the same 6-7. i got to clear out a lot of profiles but its difficult to resist trying out all the stuff that people are sharing. dont think i will be buying any more packs though,and i only bought a couple anyway.
-
I only use 5 profiles, and 3 of them are different gain settings of the same amp.
-
In reality i only use 3 profiles 95% of the time, i fool around a lot with others though.
-
I use TAF's JCM800 95% the time... even for clean, couldn't be happier But I tweaked it a little and have 3 profile with different gains.

Exactly the kind of thing that I'm finding. Fall in love with an amp, make a couple of settings with it and I feel like I can cover almost anything.

Exactly the same here.....same amp/profile....it was a game changer for me finding that profile

Best profile ever

Is it a free TAF Profile, or Commercial? -
It depends. if you have a recording studio and working with various bands, certainly you should use a lot of profiles. If you have only 1 project 1-2 profile enough.

I use profiles of the amps that I would use in the studio. 6505, EVH 5150 and rectifiers.
I think I got the best profiles available and I use that.

My Kemper is on the way. I've been listening to The Amp Factory profiles and can see I may be in trouble. Most of them are excellent. I'm hoping the factory profiles are good so I don't end up spending a fortune on The Amp Factory. I can see myself down the road ending up with a half dozen that I actually use.

The word is wonderful just because it's various
I use a lot of profiles....
1) because I like playing a lot of different things,
2) because I like to give a different colour to every song in the "sound space",
3) because the KPA have so damned good profiles to listen toSo, when I search the sound of a song, I even don't start with only the "classic" amp you are thinking about teorethically, I search between a different set of what I selected in the KPA and just choose the best one for me in that context and often I choose profiles I would never think about it before, but the result is awesome, at least for me
Try guys also with different things you will never think before, the digital world give to us this great opportunity: to change, to try, to experiment

+1 here, absolutely agree with Maurizio70

I am currently using a single amp profile live. I will add a boost, delay, reverb etc occasionally to change things up, but the underlying amp tone is always the same. Simple and consistent for our sound guy that way.
-
I primarily use 3: Amp Factory Conford Carrea, Soundside '57 Deluxe, and the Morgan AC20 from the exchange.
-
I actually use:
1. Mesa Boogie Lonestar Special
2. Mesa Boogie Roadking
3. Marshall Acoustic Amp
4. Marshall Plexi 1959HW
all Profiles are from SoundsideThe next amp i want to try is the Elmwood or Diezel from Soundside
-
For gigs I use the 1959HW Plexi & Dlezel VH4 from Soundside for the most part. Also use the AC20 & recently loaded some of Maurizio's awesome Vox profiles in. Of course I continue to look for other cool amps because I can't help it!
