I am really shure they do have different algos...including different parameters and behaviours. I use Kemper for so many years, and alongside that different products from line6 and eventide for multi FX. Before the "kemper chapter" I collected Wah pedals. My most beloved..a snarling dog.. ..the line6 conductor is very close. I have had different morley pedals, some of them with modifications.. I can find it in another algo. ibanez wheeping demon was a very special one..you can find it. and so many Crybaby and VOX and and and..(the digital sonuus was interesting, too). there is really more than a sweeping filter, what makes so many wah pedals unique. kemper is very close to the classic cry baby and the vox wah. and yeah...maybe with the tweaking possibilities in the kemper algo 85 to 90 percent of users will be happy. and I am very happy with all my kempers, coz their main feature, the amp sound, was my entrance to the kemper world (with the right profiles) and the exit from stereo tube amp walls and up to three gigantic pedalboards and rack equipment. I hope that different FX in the kemper will be updated soon. It would be ok to pay something extra for that. like eventide did with their H9 pedal. so everyone can consider, what he is willing to pay depending on his or her needs.
If there is a charge for the firmware update of kemper, then I will immediately sell the kemper in my hand and join the free camp of fractal, because I will calculate the account. Because in my opinion, Tremolo+Square Wave tremolo is the FX that fractal has long been provided to users for free.
