  • New Kemper - looking for advice on profiles!

    Hey guys!

    Got a Kemper last week, and loving it! I've just got free stuff on it so far. There's some great stuff on the rig exchange.

    However I want to check out some commercial stuff. There so many though! What's your favourite profile 'manufacturer' that would be your ultimate goto? I've heard MBritt is good - but not always the best for studio use!

    I'm sure this question gets asked, but there's just so much choice and would love some direction.

    Thanks! ^^

  • Have a Kemper arriving in a few days, will my interface suffice?

    Quote from hjscheffler

    As long as the DA/AD of your interface matches the PROFILER in terms of quality there should be no difference in the perceived sound quality. The pedal inputs on the back of the PROFILER are for expression pedals and foot switches. A Looper pedal needs to be either used in front of the PROFILER or inserted in the FX loop of the PROFILER or between the line level outputs of the PROFILER and the inputs of your interface. Each of these locations will give you different options regarding the type of signal that you want to loop.

    Sorry to sound dumb, and I realise this is a guitar question not a Kemper question, but could you really briefly tell me where you'd use each?

    • Loop in front - Loops everything. So I can't lay down a clean loop and switch to a dirt pedal to solo over.

    I've got that but unsure on the others.

    Thanks again!

    Thank you to much guys!

    Have a driving lesson, then it's arriving for when I get back :love:

    2 more quick questions if you don't mind :

    1) Will I lose any tone if I play a long to backing tracks with it hooked up to my interface? So instead of plugging an aux in, I just run everything through my interface? (backing through usb, kemper through the inputs etc).
    Or do you think it'd be better plugging my laptop in via the aux in/alternative input?

    2) I have a loop pedal that I'm going to want to use with it. Should I plug this into the front of the Kemper or into one of the pedal plugs?

    I still find it crazy how this relatively old piece of technology is still preferred by many people to modern offerings (Helix etc)!

    Hey guys

    Super excited about getting a Kemper in a few days. My buddy thought I was nuts to buy one in 2018 when you have the Helix/AX8 etc - but I wanted something with the smallest amount of tweaking.

    Anyway, I currently have a Steinberg UR22mk2 interface. Will this be good to record with, or should I opt for something with SPDIF?

    If you do recommend SPDIF, what interface would you suggest for under £500?

    Thanks ^^
