Yeah. This is truly amazing.

Can't wait. Thanks!

High dollar guitars are highly overrated. I've got a Maple Kramer that cost $350.00 that has some magic wood to it. I'd put that up against any $3000+ Les Paul or Paul Reed Smith any day and I bet you money that you wouldn't be able to tell which one was better in a blind test. It's just like people make a big deal of 335's ( I have one) And there's nobody that can tell you the difference between one of those and say a Les Paul plugged into the same rig and recorded. You can't hear the hollow wood just the pickup. Now I will say they feedback different and that does affect the tone. There are minor differences between guitars mostly because of the electronics and as long as it's decent and stays in tune and has OK intonation, you can make a $350.00 guitar sound just as good as a $400,000.00 one.
I should have said: he plays excellent sounding guitars. And some who try to replicate it might not. But you know that.

US I assume :). Doesn't show on mobile at least.

...very often you will dont get the Sound you hear in the Demos, unfortunately, and this is not only cause you're a different player,
Demo or Trials are your Friend before buying !!!
We should call this out. Do you have examples? We sometimes try to test this on the forum and often it does sound the same when you play the same way.
-
In general you can expect people to demo using Kemper possibilities only. So you get the full sound. Sometimes it doesn't sound the same when you play due to guitar and playing differences.
-
I find the profiles to sound harsh and brittle. I don't know that they're trash, but every profile I've used sounds nothing like his videos.
Keep in mind he is playing 3000$ guitars with fresh strings.
-
Erhm I'm pretty sure the profile process does not depend on your guitar volume :).
-
What was the problem?
-
the Profiling algorithm should be able to handle delays of up to 100ms
-> this means a 100% wet delay of the whole signal and NOT a delay as in an effect! <-Got it. This means that you could profile tape saturation if you wanted to. The typical delay due to tape head distance is in that ballpark.
-
How do you think they made all the FX, particularly the drive FX?
...and pretty much every hardware emulation plugin in existence.
-
up to a point, yes.
Thanks DonPetersen . And at 50-100 ms are we beyond that point?
-
Some of the cabinet preset you are loading might be old and were created before the parameters Low Cut and High Cut even existed.
True. Maybe when loading a cab without low cut it should be reset to default then?
-
Nope, post 23 just points out the obvious. But we’re not running a signal through a tape machine, so it’s not necessarily relevant in this case.
The OP clearly asked for tube and tape style saturation inside the Kemper, not a model of a tape machine. And now he’s getting the results he wanted by abusing the delay effect.
I don’t mean to make this into a p1ssing contest, but why is it necessary to account for the time alignment of a tape machine’s input and output stages when you only want the saturation effects of the tape, not a full model of the machine and it’s signal flow?
I think the point was when/if profiling it. It has latency. But Kemper can profile things with latency so not sure that is a problem.
-
Nice. Any way to check out the music you make with that bad boy?
-
-
Exactly. Just like the difference between saturating two notes individually and then blending them compared to saturating a power chord together. Totally different sound.

Anybody up for profiling the same rig with both mk1 and mk2 hardware? Would love to try both profiles on my mk1 hardware.
-
No, and this would be why;
Better dynamics = subjective.
More Accurate = not necessary since good tone is needed more than tone accuracy.
Better feel = my guitars and hands will still feel the same.
Will I eventually get one? Yes, but maybe not for several more years. I'm still trying to master the Mk1.
Hehe I could not disagree more here Larry :). #withlove
