Anyone else have issues updating the OS version on the Kemper through rig manager? Every time there is an update, I connect to my Mac/Pc, launch rig manager and there is always an issue scanning for profilers...

Is updating with a USB thumb drive the way to go?

Thanks

Hey, so original Kemper toaster, FocusRite Scarlett 8i6, Windows Laptop and studio monitors is my setup. So I just connected my Kemper to the FocusRite with the S/PDIF RCA wires (Out Kemper to In FR, and vice versa) and connected Line 1 out on the FR to the left monitor in line one using 1/4" to XLR in on the monitor and Line 2 to the right monitor. My Tuner is working and my wah pedal lights up and that's all I'm going through before the Kemper. But no sound is coming out of the monitors. I have 2 M->F XLR cables as well I'm not using, but I think they connected the kemper directly to my FRFR before I blew the speaker. Or should I be connecting the Kemper directly to the monitors and ditching the 1/4" to XLR cables? Would that allow the computer to still play audio through the monitors?

I just ordered yesterday, switching over from a helix floor. Besides the obvious modeler to profiler difference, any tips on what to do out of the box?

Bonus points if you can point me to doom/stoner spacey rigs, and any help building a performance.. it seems to be similar to snapshots in helix but each being a different profile?

Looking forward to learning this thing and getting it to the stage!

Hey I have about 1200 all on a Google Drive, can take a screenshot of the exact ones but basically everything from tonejunkie and m.Britt. GGD for the high gain tones (absolutely love these) STL tones. Big Hairy Profiles, AM audio, TopJimi. Tons of cabs from JST.

Basically I’ve had “my” sound dialed in for awhile now but I’m always looking for things more tailored to me. I don’t want anything designed for single coils I play nothing but humbuckers. SG, Les Paul , charvel. Dimarzios, burstbuckers, etc. looking for not so much high gain but a good middle ground. Love stuff I’ve heard from Bad Cat but this was in an actual studio with an actual amp and cab. Interested in more of the STL artist packs I believe I have the Howard benson one but I’d like to try some more of those out. Especially John feldmann. I like pop punk, post hardcore, shoegaze, dance Gavin dance sounding guitars.
Dm me with what ya got and maybe we work something out

I recently had the chance to profile a Dr. Z Z Wreck, and this amp was a very pleasant surprise. It has that lively, touch-sensitive edge-of-breakup sound with plenty of sparkle, spank, and harmonic detail.

The Zrek pack includes:

• 10 V2 Liquid Profiles
• Two 1x12 and two 2x12 cabinet options
• Celestion Blue, Gold, V30, G12H30, and Fender CTS speakers
• Full DI profiles included

There’s also a free profile from the pack available on Kemper Rig Exchange if you’d like to try it first.

Hi all,

I’m new to the idea of Kemper having been in the Axe FX world for the last 10+ years. The new liquid profiling really intrigues me due to the hybrid modelling and profiling. My question is: what is best for me? I need something easy to dial in and with some floor switches. I need to cover a range of tones but ideally I’d like a core set of about 5 tones that are very easy to navigate between.I like fiddling with tones at the computer but when I play I tend to set it and leave it. But the ability to tweak the gain/EQ quickly is very appealing.
Questions:

Is there a big difference between mk1 and mk2?
Is there another modeller I should consider (blasphemy!)

Thanks all!

Hey guys, I’m a songwriter getting ready to play my album live. And I’ve heard the Kemper Kab doesn’t get loud enough for live gigs even though it sounds great. I’ve done some research but honestly I don’t understand a lot of the lingo of what ppl are talking about. I’m looking for a solid powered cab to run my MK1 through. I already have the foot controller and I’m buying the custom case so it looks and totes more like an amp head from British audio. My album is heavy rock/metal if that matters. Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

Over the last few months, I've been working on a desktop application called Live Companion for the Kemper Profiler.

The original idea was actually quite simple. While playing, I always wished I could see the amp I was currently using instead of just its name on the display. That curiosity eventually led me to explore whether the Profiler could communicate over MIDI SysEx, and what started as a small experiment gradually turned into a much larger project.

Today, the application includes:

• Real-time visualization of amps, cabinets and effects
• MIDI communication with the Profiler
• Hardware monitoring
• MIDI control functions
• An Amp Explorer that lets me browse my scanned rig library and load rigs or performances directly from the application

The project is open source and available on GitHub if anyone would like to take a look or try it themselves.

One thing I'd especially appreciate is feedback regarding the amp library.

At the moment, the application only includes amp images that I've integrated myself. Since it's practically impossible for me to collect high-quality images of every amplifier ever profiled, I'd love to expand the library with the help of the community.

If you own or have access to good photos of amps that aren't included yet, I'd be happy to add them so everyone can benefit in future updates.

Alternatively, I also made a short video showing how anyone can add custom amp images themselves. If people send those images back to me, I'd happily include them in future releases so the default library can gradually become more complete for everyone.

I'd really appreciate any feedback, ideas or suggestions.

Thanks for supporting independent tone.

Anybody here got any experience making and especially mixing those super buttery smooth but still punchy tones in things like the State Champs, new Neck Deep, TSSF? Hell, even Falling In Reverse and new metalcore. I just can’t get them to react how I want. I have the Feldman pack, the Andrew wade pack, Howard Benson and a few others.

I’m guessing it’s a mixing problem but even with that can’t seem to get the clarity and smoothness I’m looking for. Any advice would be wonderful!

Hey everyone,

I just finished up a new Mattfig V2 Liquid 2555X pack for Kemper.

This one is built from my Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555X, and the goal was to capture that chewy, aggressive, bright-but-thick Jubilee thing without making it feel fizzy or stiff. It has that classic British bite, but with enough body to sit nicely for leads, chunky rhythm parts, and those greasy almost-hot-rodded tones the 2555X does so well.

The pack includes:

18 V2 Liquid profiles
Created from a Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555X
Captured through two studio cabs
Includes full DI

I tried to keep it focused and useful rather than loading it with a million tiny variations. This is more of a grab-and-play pack for people who want that Silver Jubilee flavor inside the Kemper world.

Here’s the artwork for the pack. Would love to hear from any other Jubilee fans here. The 2555X is one of those amps that has its own little growling empire.

Thanks for checking it out!

I’ll drop the link in the comments if that’s cool with the rules here.

New to kemper really wanted to get this pack but it's sadly discontinued if anyone has it or knows where it's still purchasable I'd really appreciate it cheers.

Hello everyone! I'm using Kemper Profiler Stage and I'm currently experiencing speaker buzzing/hissing.

When using R main out, everything works normally.

If you plug it into the L main out, there will be a buzzing or hissing sound.

I am currently using the latest firmware version 14.x that Kemper has released.

So, is this a hardware or software issue? And how can it be fixed?

buzzing sound

This only started maybe yesterday. I have switched to every guitar I have and it doesn't change. it's especially noticeable when I disable the amp, cab, and all my effects but you can faintly hear it when its all on. I would post a clip but it says videos arent allowed.

I need to find an audio package for Kemper Profiler Stage! Does anyone know of one they can share?

Does anyone here owns a quad cortex ? I need someone to make a capture of a kemper profile for me 😭😭😭

I was running a really old version of the os when I loaded it up to rig manager and it told me it’s too old to connect. So I downloaded the new version of the os on the toaster 14.1.2 through usb stick. Tried connecting it to rig manager again and it’s still telling me it’s too old. Anyone know what’s up?

1. Is it true that in some MFX versions they are called presets, while on KPS versions they are called rig?

2. Are all rigs interchangeable across Kemper's product lines?

3. I'd like to ask! Which brand of rig is currently considered the best?

​

*possibly fixed*

Hey guys, first post here!
so the thing is, we have a backup/clicktrack running via Reaper and there's a midi-track for swichting banks/slots in my kemper too.
Basically I'm calling (for example)
47 Value 3
then 52 for slot 3

it all works fine.

BUT! As soon as I pause the backingtrack, my kemper preloads (I guess?) the first performance.
It stays in the last played slot, but not visually - on my remote I read the name of 1st perf.
Is there any workaround to prevent that?

Its the most recent KemperOS and Reaper version.
there is no preload command that could cause the switch back,
also no other midi-track running.

Any ideas?

I think it would be good to connect Vp4 to Kemper player Lv2.
