You can always contact support to get an answer.

Firstly thank you for an amazing product

I reckon since the MK2 announcement , Kemper support has probably spent a lot of time answering the same/similar questions many times over and over again . Perhaps you should consider creating a 'sticky' FAQ type announcement/thread at the top of the forum page. That would surely assist in answering the MK2 FAQ's ?

(It would also rapidly reduce the amount of random , speculative , uninformed posts from random persons on FB , YouTube and other forums )

FWIW , Jonathan of 'Tone Junkies' did a brief review of the Mk2 features yesterday. He's a gigging worship guitarist who's played in many different stage lighting conditions. He's used most of the older and the latest available makes of modellers. He states that in his opinion, out of all of them , the Kemper display , besides being 'old tech' , is the most visible display in all onstage lighting conditions.

But to complete the process , you have to then go to the bottom of that page to save your language change.

You know what, I didn't mean to either.

We can have differing ideas and it can be all good

As I said before, we can still be homies!

I, much like you, just like sharing ideas and observations

I definitely didn't mean for this to turn into any sort of verbal debate competition and I apologize for adding to the problem.

We both clearly have ideas that are valid from different perspectives and hey, that's just life

This.

Before long term friendships are harmed , I reckon it's a better option right now to wait for QC to be released into the public domain . That is when there will be hundreds/thousands of opinions posted on the www. , regarding what the QC can or cannot do well , or not so well.

Quote from Nikos

Also a lot of people would complain that "all the drives sound similiar..." and the discussion about how od pedals in general sound similarly would be even bigger than it already is.

This is most probably the main reason why the Kemper team has taken this general route and not a pedal specific route .

Thank you very much ....

Please can you post a link to that 'AC' thread ... I can't find it

Quote from OneEng1

This is a great suggestion.

Of course, I do get that you have put in lots of time trying to get acceptable tone.... So at some point you should consider selling your KPA. It isn't for everyone. No amp is.

As you yourself have stated, others have great clips on the KPA. it is possible to get tone nervana from the device. It might not be the best piece of gear for YOU to reach great time with though.

**If you can find someone local that uses a KPA, you should spend some time with them to see if they can help.**

^^Terence , this is definitely the best advice going forward

A massive Thank You to all the staff at Kemper . I'm just so grateful to receive whatever awesomeness you give us..... .... I'll wait ...... No problem

I am nearing 6 years with "my baby." I also have the patience of a sniper and am perfectly happy with my Kemper as is. If they give us a gift at some point I'll happily accept it without complaint.

Yeah, I'm perfectly happy too.

Even if I never download another profile or firmware update again , I'd still be fully satisfied .

Every time I play my kpa loud , my neighbors throw a brick through my window , so they can hear me better .. lol

Quote from Awesome_Elvis

I used to want a Lamborghini Diablo when I was a kid, now I want a bugatti veyron. I have neither. If I had the Diablo and sold it to get a Lamborghini gallardo, but was thinking about getting the bugatti veyron but was worried about bugatti releasing a new car (which they did) and I was stuck with the Veyron, I'd be ok with that. Would you?

Nah , never a Lamborghini ....
A Ferrari 308 GTS , (ala Magnum PI) , is another matter entirely . .... but , that will never happen for me either .
But , never mind me , carry on with the KPA 2 thead ....

I also think a KPA 2 won't happen any time soon either.

Thanks ur2funky, what a great amp and profile got so inspired by the Ch 2 that i had write a litlle tune, using my Les Paul, Manne tele and my Reverend guitars.

Sorry for the sloppy mix

Best regards

Dude , that was great playing and killer tonez. I especially liked the last +- 15 seconds of that tune . Well done !

Jp le Roux powered Kpa into 2 x 12 vertical diagonal cab with a well ‘run in’ Celestion V30 and a 65 Creamback

You should be using a printer usb cable. Are you ?

@ 'Cederick' . This stuff is way over my head and since I don't record or profile with my KPA ( ... and in trying to learn something from this thread ) , as an ignorant layman , I have only a single suggestion to put forward :-

Can you perhaps hook up with another KPA user nearby you , that is happy with their results and use their KPA to try achieve what you are trying to do ?
Perhaps it is a setting somewhere in your KPA that is hindering you ?

Please Note: I'm not suggesting you don't know what you are doing , I'm just making simple suggestion ..
( This is a very informative thread nonetheless . Lots learnt here already . Thnx for that )

Yes please
To be honest , I'm rather overwhelmed, confused in some areas and totally lost in other areas, since the 5.0 firmware upgrade

I like this Stanley bag... but we are sadly unable to get it in South Africa

Quote from MKB

I've been a happy Kemper user for over a year, and the only thing I regret about it is I didn't get a powered version. It would be so great to be able to plop the Kemper on top of most any cab I had at the venue, plug it in, and go. The powered version is significantly more money than unpowered, more so than seems reasonable at first blush given how cheap power amps are these days, but under the hood the Kemper has one of the best Class D power amps you can get (an ICEpower unit), and their level of quality is expensive. So it is worth it in the end.

IMHO if you are going to be gigging with the Kemper, and you will need appreciable stage volume from time to time, just spring for the powered version as you'll probably need it eventually.

^^^^ This is the correct answer ^^^^

The Alto TS 112A is a cheaper choice , if you are on a lower budget ...
