Nice! I'm going to have to pick this one up. Thanks!

You know you can place a wah in a slot of your choice, lock it and it will be available in any rig, don't you?
I do know that, but what if I don't wah to take up one of my stomp slots because I want to have the following 4 stomps: Compressor, Overdrive, Phaser, and Flanger and the 4 MOD slots are full? I know I can probably set up a separate performance, but if it is global then I won't have to worry about it.
Wah as a global setting would be nice because it would just always be available if you wanted it to be just like a volume pedal.
-
I'll be buying this one for sure!

It would be nice to have a Global Wah Pedal option similar to how the volume pedal works. This way it will not take up a STOMP slot and you have the ability to have it ready no matter what profile you have up.

Nevermind.
I wasn't looking hard enough initially. I found a couple.
-
Here is where I bought it. I guess the model is KP875?
HTH
Do you know where you can find a similar one in the US? I did a quick search this specific one and I can't find one. Thanks!

I just got my first IEM system yesterday (Sennheiser EW300 G3 w/ Shure SE215 earbuds). I know absolutely nothing about setting up IEMs. I was hoping I can get some help getting it all setup. I was thinking that there would be two different scenarios. 1) IEM connected straight to Kemper and 2) IEM through board.
Thanks in advance for all the help.

Yes, I captured a bunch of profiles at different settings over the weekend....including matching direct amp profiles. It's a great amp and to my ears the profiles came out sounding very close. I'm pretty happy with the way they turned out but my ears are pretty fatigued at this point. Have you played the real amp? I'd love to get your thoughts.
I also have a CCV and a Cameron Aldrich I hope to profile in the near future.
Thanks for doing this! I can't wait for the direct profiles.

Thanks for this.
Are you planning on doing more profiles?
This is an amazing amp.
-
In the meantime, get yourself two double foot switches and plug them into 2 of the remote ports? (still leaves 4 ports for volume & wah etc. )
That's actually what I'm doing. I'd just like the seamless integration of just having it all in one unit and the flexibility and ease of programming of the Remote but in a more robust unit.
-
It would be awesome if Kemper would release a larger Remote with 8 assignable effects footswitches that corresponds to each of the Stomp and Mod slots. One can only dream.
-
I just downloaded the VH4 pack and it sounds awesome. So awesome that I ended up buying 4 other packs as well. Thanks!

That is super cool to see Paul Gilbert using the Kemper. I wonder what profiles he is using. TopJimi has profiles of his old amp from the Racer X days.

<p>Thanks so much for this video. I haven't tried the DXR10, but I have a Friedman. There are things I like about the Friedman (wood enclosure, pretty grill cloth, sound is ok) and things I really dislike (heavy and cumbersome, no 1/4" input, lower output when going from 1/4" Kemper output to adaptor into XLR) but in the right situations it can sound really good. The DXR looks lightweight and way more practical. How do you compare the low end between the two? I would assume the ASM12 would have more low end, but do you find that to be true?</p>
After I saw this question I went back down to test of the D-Contour Switch on the Yamaha.
You can get lots of low end from both speakers. If you change the D-Contour Switch settings on the DXR10 you can certainly get things rattling. I wouldn't recommend it for bass guitar but the Drop D riffs I was playing sure has lots of bass in them. In the "FOH/Main" position there is more than enough bass , but it also changes the high end because it is boosted (as per the Yamaha DXR series manual).
I would say the amount of bass is equal between the two if the ASM-12 has the Low Cut Switch "off" and the D-Contour on the DXR is "off". There is slightly less bass with the D-Contour Switch set to "Monitor" and more bass when set to "FOH/Main".

Here's a quick video I shot today playing through my Yamaha DXR10 and Friedman ASM-12 and doing a little A/B testing with my Kemper PowerHead.

Recorded "in the room" with a Zoom Q2HD about 6 feet away and about 6 feet off the ground centered between the speakers.
Used only MBritt profiles with no effects.
1) 67 Luxe Verb 1 S
2) Dirty Laverne Lo 3
3) 69 Marshall 50 G7
4) 5353 Ch 3 A 3
5) CTone OTS OD F1Friedman connected via XLR and Yamaha connected via Monitor Out.
Used my decibel meter to match the profile output volumes to around 85db.
Please excuse my sloppy playing.

As you can tell, there is a huge physical difference between the two cabs. The Yamaha is nice and light and the Friedman feels like a regular 2x12 cab. It reminded me of when I owned a Mesa Rectifier 2x12 cab. I read a lot of complaints about the handle placement on the Friedman, but it really doesn't bother me. Sure, handles on the side would be nice, but I do not think it is necessary. I would definitely recommend using two arms to lift the Friedman though just because of the size and dimensions of the cab. The weird thing about the Friedman is that it is as if the Armor All (or whatever) that was sprayed on the exterior of the cab was overdone. It is super slick which makes trying to grip the cab very difficult.
In my opinion, it is kind of hard to tell the difference based on the YouTube video. There is quite a difference in person. As stated in other online posts, the Friedman has more of that "amp in the room" feel. You can really feel it when you playing through the Friedman. It is not as bright compared to the Yamaha. The Yamaha is clearer and brighter than the Friedman but it does not have the same feel as Friedman. As expected, the DXR10 is just like having a studio monitor but in wedge form. I also own a pair of HS8s and that is what the DXR10 sounds like but the sound is coming up from the floor.
Both cabs are very loud. In the video, I only had them up to 85db. The level knobs on both were at 9 o'clock. 85db was plenty loud just for basement playing. Both of them have plenty of volume for gigs.
I know this will sound cliche, but I wouldn't say that one cab is better than the other. It is just a matter of taste since both cabs are excellent. I would recommend the DXR10 if weight is an issue for you and you want a more polished/hi-fi sound. I would recommend the Friedman if you want the feel of a cab and can handle the size (if you have ever owned a 2x12 cab, you can handle the ASM-12. It is definitely similar and much easier to handle than a 4x12 cab.) Both are excellent options as a FRFR.
Feel free to ask any questions. I'll try my best to answer.

I emailed customer support about this when my Kemper started showing this error and I was told that it is a bug with the beta 3.3 firmware and that it will be resolved with a future update.
-
Thanks for sending this, but I already have this file saved on my computer.
I was just wondering if we was going to have a link on his new website to an updated key. I can't seem to find it in the new website.
It is nice to have all the real amp names gathered in one place for quick reference.

I purchased the Heavy, 800, and D100 packs last night with no problems.
Are you going to update "The Key" for the new packs so that there is an updated master list? Also, where is the link to the key? I can't seem to be able to find it.
