I like this idea. Having separate EQ behavior for the Poweramp Out would make switching between a guitar cab and FRFR setup a lot more convenient without having to keep changing global settings. It would definitely make live setups a bit smoother.

i agree! and i could adjust my stage tone without affecting the main tone which is also stacked at the moment, when i profile i already head my cab but for the miced tone i need to eq what goes to the pa and sometimes the global eq does not do the trick so i do not touch it anymore

playing aroung with the ehx pog is pretty addicting.

Can we have two more octaves, L/R, Spread, a filter and a attack setting for the chromatic pitcher ?

In case you have not checked out the POG3 ...

I would love to have that inside one stomp on the kemper

I like Loudness knobs ... the only sad thing is they have different curves at different "volumes" but a little bit of less 4k and so on would be cool. maybe if the eqs for the outputs were parametric we could build it ourself

I think a tight dirty Sansampstyle pedal for bass and an warmer Ampeg Style Pedal and a clean Trace Elliot / Gallien Krueger Style pedal in the stomp section would be ultra important and maybe less work than a profiling mode optimized for Bass Amps. Important would be that mix / or parallel processing of the bass tone so a driven side and a clean side with eq

I tweaked me some bass tones

one for slap bass, one distorted

I used a Marcus Miller bass for this one and from now on, my Sandberg bass is gone ... even though i loved that bass the marcus millers bass internal preamp is just another level

maybe i make some more soon with more bass settings to deal with basses that sound more dull for example.

soon on rig exchange

I often end up with more than 20db too much bass in the subbass and it does not capture the distortion well, and now that refining is gone i have to go back to classic profiling? That is sad mabe some tweaks can help here, it seems that at the moment profiling 1.0 is better for bass amps than 2.0 which is a shame since the subbass problem remains unresolved.

In the screenshot you see what happend, i lost mids and got super boosted subbass

I think the minimum length of the IR would be really big. Not sure the Profilers are equipped for managing such big amount of data.

Anyway, I was interested in the matter years ago and collected some interesting reads. Here follow some statements from Jay Mitchell on this subject, always interesting to read even if he goes further. HTH

The thing is, i do not know what the kemper hardware is capable of, so i suggest what ever i can think of haha

I personally make untruncated IRs, and i also made some room irs. Room IRs are not uncommon and there are also hardware versions of that. Like i said i only want it for the reverb, the cab tone should be just long enough for a nice bass response but short enough to have nice latency.

Another update will come of the PRS HDRX amp this time i tweaked the amp to be brighter and mor fitting to Humbucker guitars. Since i made the first batch with my tele and strat the sounds were to dull for humbuckers ... soon on rigexchange!

I mean tweaking the (advanced) amp parameters. If they were baked into the profile during profiling they are “destructiv”, they change the “ raw” profile Kemper came up with.

ahh you mean these parameters, i only touch these if the profile it off, and then it is questionable but the only setting that the kemper actively determines is the "definition" setting the other ones like tube shape etc. can be returned to the default setting. IT would be cool if kemper would remember the definition setting they chose. like on the gain setting, but yeah. Leaving all profiles like the kemper made them without touching the advanced parameters when something is off then it is really only for development and imo it makes not sense for the player

Ok, my intention is to provide a capture of the amp without changing the sound of the amp.

Just the “raw” pure amp.

If changing any parameter after profiling - I would like to know what has been changed (after profiling before saving the first time)

For classic amps with liquid profiling I would set EQ to noon (12 o clock)

And gain (volume) in the region of intend or on maximum.

Vol on max for liquid profiling is not always the best option.

An other important part to know is the load during profiling. Which speaker or attenuator.

They may influence the output.

Profiling 2.0 ist not perfect, but really good. I like to have a “database” of ( raw, pure, not tweaked…) well documented profiles to make comparisons of amps possible.

But this is probably a little bit academic….

I mean i love the idea generally, since i already did that i will add some profiles at noon on the profiles amp again but it has the problme i mentioned. The tweaking afterwards is non destructive anyways, so as long as you choose d.i. profiles you should be fine.

I always offer the info about mastervolume and gainsettings because some amps reacts pretty drastic, like the 5150 where you have between 3 and 4 almost max gain and the rest is mainly bees xD

Imagine having the ability to create room irs with the powered kemper.

First make the studio profile (or like i wished for a IR with the powered Kemper) then move the mic back or use a room mic to capture the room also to mix it in with a room ir slot in the reverb section.

That way you can capture more of the room tone in the studio easily without trying to recreate it with another IQ.

I love room irs and reverb units that already do this sound fantastic imo

Sorry, buddy. Since I don't speak English, I understood it differently thanks to the translation. If I bothered you, I apologize, I'll try to avoid it next time. Good luck.

No problem! It is , like i said, good to know

The integration of IR with the 2.0 benefits is not finished. Kemper is working on it.

So it is not implemented yet? Hmm well then ... xD i will wait

Quote from Ruefus

The problem is that Kemper’s cab creator doesn’t produce ‘normal’ IRs.

It’s a proprietary format.

For workflow, it’d be cool if it natively exported to .wav. I wouldn’t expect it, though.

I know, and it is a shame! If they do not convert the IRs they are either .wav in a fancy container or a similar file.

Personally i would love it especially on the powered kemper to just profile cabs, and have the results as .wav in rig exchange

Quote from JoePVblue

Yes, not tweaked, raw amp

Can you describe what you mean with not tweaked? Not using the amps EQ? or everything at noon including Gain and Master ?

Quote from JoePVblue

Who is interested?

I already made a bunch of settings on all my D.I. profiles but people mostly prefered "mix ready with cab", that was at least the feedback i got back in the day, so i stopped caring.

Another feddback i got when making it is and i agree is. "What is RAW and neutral?"

Check this out https://tonestack.yuriturov.com/ ...

Is our definiton of raw "linear" then the EQ settings on the Fender Bassman should be bass on 0, Mids on 10 and treble on 0. But that only means you have to eq this with the kempers eq again.

or if you check https://www.duncanamps.com/tsc/download.html

A Marshall tonestack delivers linear response with the EQ setting, Bass at Zero, Mids at 5 and Treble at one.

Not the difficult part. The "RAW" tone will not fit to every guitar or every cab or in every listening scenario anyway.

IF we agree on the definion of "all knob at noon" it is the same story.

After all, i make profiles since 13years now and the profiles i made at "noon" where nice to revisit but i mostly played the ones i tweaked to sound good to either singlecoil guitars or bright sounding rather flat active pickups like the seymour duncan blackouts. I also made a series of profiles where i tweaked the amp to sound good with these pickups and they were, over the years, the ones that i used most.

I saw this Cab 2.0 tag and i heard about the new cab, that they are longer and higher rez?

I am looking for more infos on this but have not found any.

Can you halp me with the facts?

How many samples are they at what bit depth and sample rate? Will this quality ony happen when the profile is make with profiling 2.0 or will imported .wav IRs be this higher resolution too? I make all IRs barely truncated and at 96khz so i would love to use them at highest quality

Aaaaaand the

5150 EL34 as a D.I. Profile

in the same dropbox folder and on rigexchange soon

I use global for instruments that need higher frequencies, which is an electro-acoustic guitar, while for an electric guitar I need to set it to lower frequencies. For an electro-acoustic guitar, I don't have an active amp or cab.

Ok, cool to know man! But my usecase is a bit different
