    What methods do you use to improve your profiles or (with other devices) tone captures?

    And they say the kemper is obsolete! That tone is great my friend!

      Thank you! I plan to profile my Wangs 2204HW l, which is basically a hand wired 50watt JCM800 clone tomorrow so that video should be up soon. Stay tuned!
      Thanks for watching!

      Thank you for your kind words! Kemper world can be a little confusing but stick with it. Eventually the clouds clear and you'll have your Eureka moment. Thanks for watching, there's more good stuff coming up.

    Watched a few of your videos so far. I’ve been working with a Kemper for quite a few years now. I always appreciate inspiring and a new take on the unit.

    Excellent video and a great sounding Profile, before and after.
    So basically you added the "Modelled" version (Liquid) of a Plexi Gain and Tone stack to your DSL.

    • @TheGuitarNerdShow
      @TheGuitarNerdShow  4 місяці тому

      Thank you! And yes. I kinda think of it as if I took my amp to a tech and had him replace the tone stack and gain control to values that perform more akin to an old Superlead. And I gotta say, I really like how it affected the overall sound and feel of the profile. In the future I plan to try the same thing with some of the other included tone stack models - I just chose the Plexi Normal Channel stack because I’m a little more familiar with it’s effects than some of the other amps - not to mention some of my favorite guitar tones were crafted using those amps LOL.
      Thanks again!

    Do you have "PureCab" "on" or "off" at the output section? Everybody seems to forget about that, but that's a very important parameter which makes a huge difference!

    • @TheGuitarNerdShow
      @TheGuitarNerdShow  4 місяці тому

      Ya know, I don’t remember but I don’t think I do have it on. I’d totally forgotten about Pure Cab - thank you for reminding me, and thanks for watching!

    Another great video !!!! Do you think cranking the EQ will work the same if not using the Liquid profile update ?? I need to upgrade my old Mac book pro which is on an older operating system that will not jive with the latest update that includes the morphing.

    • @TheGuitarNerdShow
      @TheGuitarNerdShow  4 місяці тому +1

      The Liquid Profile is crucial for this. Just using the regular EQ would be like putting an EQ Pedal after the Kemper and cranking it. It’s the behavior of the Plexi tone stack that makes this possible.

      It’s not for sale just yet - I plan to make a bunch of profiles of my various amps and then put together some profile packs for sale. Check out my Guitar Rig tour to see the various amps I’ll be profiling - ua-cam.com/video/A7TrRihoOfw/v-deo.htmlsi=SN8aT_O8Zmp5oCJL

      I don’t use any attenuator. Just raw cranked amps \,,/

    I had a Kemper (couldn't jive with it), but why are people quick to write it off? It's clearly an awesome piece of gear still.

    • @TheGuitarNerdShow
      @TheGuitarNerdShow  4 місяці тому +3

      I think there are a few reasons. First, there's always the 'purist' crowd who will dismiss anything that isn't their preferred topology - especially the 'toob ' snobs - which is a category to which I used to belong - until I got a Kemper and started making MY OWN profiles.
      Second, I think there are probably a fair amount of users who are expecting it to work like other modeling platforms - dial up an amp model and go to town. They're not realizing what makes the Kemper different. Or they're using profiles that don't quite jive with their style, or feel or touch or whatever. I suspect this is the case with you because I haven't yet encountered a sound or feel the Kemper couldn't do an excellent job of copping. That's why the ability to make ones' own profiles is so key here.

      Cause it's very expensive and I've seen countless videos on UA-cam where cheaper equipment sounds significantly better. Maybe they screwed up the demos, but it's not a piece of gear you can really test for yourself, unless you buy one.
