I've now spent a bit more time getting used to the individual profiles and fine-tuning a few to my preferences.
Up until now, I’d been listening to the publicly available 2.0 profiles. They’re all great, but finally the beloved MBritt mids are back - now with 2.0 dynamics and quality.
My live presets are all still using older MBritt profiles because I wasn’t ready to swap them out for something else yet.
Now I’m almost ready to go.
I’ve already found a few favorites.

A lot of it sounds very familiar at first. But what strikes me about the older profiles is that they now sound more dynamic, of course, but also a bit rockier. At the very least, I can get them where I need them for my rock style much more easily. There’s more room to work with. And they’re very touch-sensitive.

The Vox Liquid profile with Klon is my absolute favorite of all the Vox profiles I’ve heard so far - incredibly good.
I've been waiting for the 2.0 Matchless an it's great. But I always come back to the vox in this Pack.
The Marshalls sound great. I like them a whole lot better than before.
The Bogner Shiva is really awesome!!

I still have a lot of listening to do

Thanks Michael for your great work!

I'm assuming you're on MK2 or still on MK1?

So are people still experiencing the profiles on MK1 change after going to OS 14? (not just talking about volume but other things like feel and tone)

I think the majority of MBritt profiles specially shine with single coils or P90s. He usually play those guitars. But there are some packs that fit very well for Les Pauls, like 69 Marshall, 3P Dragon, 2025 pack and some other Marshall and high gain packs. But usually, their packs are Fender and Vox related, and more suited for single coils, IMO.

Having said that, profiles are a matter of taste and ear. Everyone have their own "ear" as how a guitar amp should sound. You have to try as many profilers as you can. For example, I can't play Tone Junkie profiles, and I don't think they are bad at all. They aren't for me. I love Bert Meulendijk playing and demos, and Guidorist... but I can't play live with them... With Bert's profiles I can track many different things, but I can't find sounds for my live settings. And so on... With MBritt profiles, I can do EVERYTHING... although there are some packs that not filled my expectations, but most of them are great. 69 Marshall 50 9 3 is my rhythm rock profile since 2017 or so... Hard to beat. But it's my taste and my ears...

I'm glad its not just me that can't use the other "popular" profilers live, although I do use Berts BE100 for Sweet Child O Mine when its in the set.

What am I doing wrong? I had a Kemper a long time ago and I recently bought a Kemper Player for portability. I've dug out my M. Britt packs (and there are a lot of them) and I don't know what I'm doing wrong with the overall sound. I mean, they sound great, very organic and faithful to the original amps (or at least the ones I've tried live), but the sound is still a bit dark and muffled. I have a lot of respect for M. Britt and I don't want to offend him; I just want to fully enjoy his packs. I've adjusted the "definition" as has been suggested many times since I only play Les Paul guitars with humbuckers. I'm using the headphone output with Audio Technica ATH-M50X headphones. Any general tips? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

This should probably be posted in 3rd Party Discussions.

M. Britt was the first profiles that made me happy that I switched to the Kemper. When I was in a one guitar band there was no issues with the phat/full sound I got. Fast forward years later and playing in a 2 guitar band and I kept getting comments that people couldn't hear me. I have had to goose the Definition, clarity, mids, trebs, Presence as well as an EQ after the amp dramatically boosting upper mids and trebles so that the "blanket" is lifted off the tone. At first I wasn't happy about the amount I had to change in the EQ to be heard as it changed the core tone so much. When you turn the EQ off my profiles now its chalk and cheese. Having said that, I still find Mike's to be the best tones for the Kemper and I have 1000's of paid profiles from all profile makers. For me playing in a cover band that has to cover a lot of different material, I'm still happy using Britt.

I'm in the same boat, I have a lot of his profiles and sometimes when I think I've got something good and then switch back to my usual profiles (MBritt and Bert) it's just too "different", and they do not sound as good as some of his videos. He does a lot of good work for the kemper community with video's and what not, but out of about 8 performances (5 slots per performance of course). I haven't added any of his. Having said that a lot of other popular commercial profilers don't get a look in. I have so much buyers remorse on how much money I have spent based on videos. I am mainly a live player btw.

I'm not going through studio monitors; this is through trusted in-ears and frfr speakers. There's just a lot of beef/phatness missing (and no, I don't want to add it in the amp or EQ section)

Has it been acknowledged or verified that its not just a volume drop with Mk1 profile on v14? I'm reluctant to go to v14 if there is a feel/weakening/change in tone?

In the video he did with Tone Junkie he seemed to prefer the tone of MK1 over MK2, so who knows what's next from the master. Lots of amps he needs to get his hands on again!

Too many to mention. I too play in top 40 cover band, but I have too much fomo to only use 1 or 2 profiles. Right now Im using his BE 50 for some songs, his Bassman (called Assman), 69 EVH free profile he sent (heavily eq'd to suit mu other profiles though), BE100, SS100, Jack Lightning (poison), PT100, Marshall 77, 3P CSR (Jovi, Loverboy), 3P Dragon, Pink Taco (Blink 182), all for the more rock tones. I have used his JCM 800 and 5150 profiles in the past but I'm trying to keep the profiles down to 100 that I use

Back to your original request though, the 6 Pack Crunch (one of his new ones), has SS100, Bogner Ecstacy, some Plexi style amps, and 5150 so I feel you can't go wrong there, but as you see from above there are lots. Crank and Go has a lot of that territory covered as well.

I just want to let everyone know that my annual Black Friday Etc. Sale just started and use coupon code THANKS2024 to get 40% anything on my site, including the brand new 3rd Power Dragon Pack, featuring the amp that 3rd Power built for Joe Satriani for the "Best of Both Worlds" tour. This is another co-venture with 3P, thus the slightly higher price as I'm splitting the proceeds with 3rd Power.

Excellent!! I was hoping this would happen. Automatic purchase.

I'm just going to ask an old lazy man question (because I don't want to go looking for it), can you use the player profiles on a rack or stage . Sorry if this is a stupid question. I just want the pack after watching the vid !!

Bought the crunchy pack. Some great new tones Mike.

Has anyone had the chance to play any of the crunchy pack live and how did you go? I'm about to jump back on the horse having not gigged since 2019 and want to add these in to rest of my MBritt packs already in my live rigs.

Instant buy for me. Thanks Mike

Quote from Burkhard

Are you aware, that the functions "Performance Up/Down" assigned to external switches first step and then start to scroll like the Up/Down buttons of the Remote do?

If you want to step jest one Performance Up/Down just step on the switch shortly. And make sure your external switch is momentary. Otherwiese it's hard to avoid scrolling.

Sorry if I'm missing something here Burkhard but I (and I think others) are talking about the up/down buttns on the unit itself. I don't have a remote and yes if I use my midi controller it works fine but I don't need to use the Midi Controller now that I am set up like other right next to my work station. Again sorry if I'm missing your point. Cheers

Mine is as bad as ever possibly worse.

Quote from Webb

Thanks! For Friedman amps I have a BE100, JJ100, and a Butterslax but no SS100. I’ve gotten some requests to do one of my Wizards so either the MTL or MCII will most likely be next.

Wow, impressive collection! Apologies about the mistaken identity with the SS100. Cheers

Good luck, as MM said your profile on RE were well received. SS100 coming soon??

These are great Jason. Good stuff and thanks

Hey Jason, thanks for the profiles. They are really good and I love how you can hear the different gain stages and zeners without different EQ's. They flow naturally from one to the other. Also good to see a few melbournians kicking around this forum!!

Still doing for me and now I've noticed over the last few weeks when I scroll through performances it sometime loads the amp from the next performance with a long delay in loading the information on the screen of the Kemper.

Rick Beato's SL Plex is my secret weapon of choice. This pack has my very favourite profile of them all. And believe in me, there has been more than a few.

Hi J, I love Rick's vids and his knowledge. Just asking for a friend what application do you use this pack for? Have you cranked or rehearsed/played live with it? I haven't seen too much feedback on Rick's profiles but the samples sound good (as do many, but I don't want another pack with buyers regret). I actually don't "need" anymore profiles, but I'm a sucker for modded plexi's/JMP's.
