New Kemper Owner here and Running it when not in monitors through a peavey slant 412 with V 30's through Boss katana Mk2 Head 4 cable method. The katana is a power A/B Supply sounds and kicks like a mule!
You should try recording direct one day, it’ll be easier to make out the fine details in the amp profiles. Sometimes in the room mics get muddy because they can’t handle the excessive bass.
Great review..Not sure how I missed this... Nice to see the love for the modellers-profilers....And for the record, that DESTROYS the new EVH : ) Super meaty chewie crushing goodness!!!
Yo Yo yo. I tell ya I'm F'N loving my QC through the cabs. I'm sure the Kemper would have me pleased as well. Always room if ya got room for Heads. Haha I don't have room to give haha
Oh shit Kiesel love. 3 in can't stop now. Got the next one all built up on their new virtual builder, but really haven't fully broken in the last one. Kemper or Quad, one of these is my next toy. love yer demo's, keeping my wallet lite and my shit eating grin wide. How can tone make you so happy?
Hahahaha! Yes! You know, legit bro, the Quad Cortex has some issues and they may need some time to work through the kinks. It seems like the QC is better than the Kemper, so maybe hold off for now. The Kemper is incredible right out of the box, no issues and more profiles than you know what to do. That being said, the QC is new but has a few issues that you should check out on the Quad Cortex Facebook group and see what you think. :)
Just got these Kemper pros bas ass with my recto 2x00 Mesa boogie power amp really awesome …and love the Kiesel bought 5 kiesels last year 1 one the way
@@louistorres I bought the powered kemper. Does pretty well I also have a mesa power amp that I've used for other endeavours as well. Just the 50 watt mesa.
Gary, legit... These amp profiles are ridiculously great! I have a few different profile suites that I bought but these are, without question, the best I have. I honestly think running a Kemper into a tube poweramp and out to a cabinet is everything. In that case, the Kemper is literally just the preamp section with 12AX7s. At one point, as i was testing these profiles, I cranked my PA50 and laughed! I was shocked at how clearly and loud it was! The biggest complaint is how these Kempers sound anemic and I have to agree but the sweet spot, I think, is with a tube poweramp section.
That Fryette! I've been wanting one but don't know how to use it bc it's an attenuator/ poweramp. I should watch a few videos bc dudes love that Power Station! :)
@@muleblues71 I bought the version 2 from GC but found it too bright. I believe the version 1 has a presence control on the back. I’m still looking for a poweramp for a modeler that sounds great.
@@chrismears2312 For all captures you can adjust gain, volume, bass/mid/treble - all of which can be used to alter the tone somewhat, but not overly drastically. I adjust the eq to suit the pickups/tuning I'm using, and the gain to further saturate the tone. Out of all the captures I have, I've found this pack to require the smallest amount of tweaking. For IRs, the work incredibly well with Ola's "The One" Mesa/V30s that he just started selling.
@@michael-jillianfox3049 They are really different, especially considering the pack is 90% high gain tones. For example the Revv 120 feels/sounds nothing like the Fortin Meshuggah, which is totally different than the Fortin Cali. The only similarities are in amps that are also similar (5150 and the EVH amp, for example)

I actually did for a while and hundreds of guys started yelling at me! Hahaha!
So, you can play through a 4x12, I have a Kemper & a Matrix power amp… would love to just use my 4x12 w/o using anything else!
Plug the Kemper into your poweramp and use your 412 cabinet. Just make sure your cabinet can handle the wattage of the specific Matrix you own.
Great review..Not sure how I missed this... Nice to see the love for the modellers-profilers....And for the record, that DESTROYS the new EVH : )
Super meaty chewie crushing goodness!!!
Bro, I love my Headrush pedalboard and my Kemper Stage! Such great tools for playing live and recording!
Yo Yo yo. I tell ya I'm F'N loving my QC through the cabs. I'm sure the Kemper would have me pleased as well. Always room if ya got room for Heads. Haha I don't have room to give haha
Paul! Yes, bro! The fact that I have all these extra amps at my disposal is great!
I need to unsubscribe. I spent money Everytime I watch! But my Kemper needs this!
Bro, I do the same with everything and anything! Lol!
Man I had an Axe FX one time it was difficult to use. Is Kemper user friendly? How do you install profiles?
Move profiles to a USB drive, plug USB to the back of the Kemper, import and that's it. Super easy.

What tuning you using for this demo? Sounds killer!
C# Standard. It ranges between C and C#, depends on the guitar. :)
i absolutely love my kemper, i run a 2x12 if i don't use the in house PA. I went and had my Krankenstien profiled. those files sound amazing.
What poweramp are you using when running into the 212 cabinet?
@@louistorres I bought the powered kemper. Does pretty well I also have a mesa power amp that I've used for other endeavours as well. Just the 50 watt mesa.
I want to hate on Kemper but damn those tones were sick

Tube poweramps are where it's at for the kemper. I'm running a fryette power station

@@louistorres easy peasy. Set the volume on your amp and use the fryette as your master "volume"

Got this pack for the Quad Cortex and was blown away. Easily the best captures I've heard so far.
Luke! I'm glad you have them and yes, I agree! I have a bunch of different profile suites that sound great but these were hit out of the ballpark!
I’m getting my QC today hopefully, how much eq and gain adjustments can you make on the captures?
How different were all the patches? These in the video sounded very similar.

How many profiles are in the pack? Can't seem to find a number.
Go to their website, all their packages are there, including the number of profiles in each pack and what each profile consists of.
bro. are you direct to the pc or into an efx return on one of the amps through a cab? thanks
Start at 4:44 where I go over the details. Just in case you missed it.
@@louistorres thanks. I did miss it while jumping forward. soundin killer
Great vid buying that Kemper pack fo sho
