Kemper Profiler PowerRack

Class D amp 600 watts - all conceivable effects are included in it. It weighs 5 kg.

UTILIZATION

The configuration is very complex, there are a lot of buttons, but the whole is essential given the endless possibilities it has.
Two possible uses:
- Live Recording input with amp simulation and practice
- Use live: you plug any guitar cabinet

The Kemper is a revolution because it copies any amp as a profile. We can then create their own sounds by copying tube amp inside the Kemper, and you can also download those of others on the Internet. If the person who created the profile of the tube amp does with professionalism and you Get him her profile, so you'll sound any tube amp at full power. I speak very little on this subject, because there's really no words to explain the magic of "profiling."

SOUNDS

It is suitable for all styles of music possible. The sound recording reproduces 100% of the sound of a tube amp at full power again with microphone and preamp of the highest quality. It has far surpassed my own times tube amp (although I have a lot). It has all the effects perfectly reproduced and a noise gate that perfect sound. No more pedal connectors, etc.. is necessary, while the inside is.

I do not live, but I play with a 1x12 cabinet, the sound is extremely clean live. But I've never experienced group. It seems at first sight ideal. Especially since it weighs only 5 kg ... ideal for transport.

OVERALL OPINION

I for 1 month and I sold all my amps (Mesa Dual Rectifier, Bogner Uberschall, Orange Rockerverb, orange TH30).

€ 2,000 is not much for what it is recording, it replaces all the amps and all pedals with optimum quality. I had the X3 pod and pod HD, I tried the AXE FX ... the Kemper has nothing to do with this stuff, no need to report a debate. You can listen to the sound of my Kemper with the profile of Marshall JCM800 modified on this link: https://soundcloud.com/anjer/inner-city
and I defy anyone to differentiate it from the real JCM800.

I do not pretend to know all that live there replace at its power amp. But only 5 kg and a pedal midi control to add is still very convenient. Note that many of the group have been seeing more and more group known to use live (for example, fear factory, not soft).
