[MusicTlk] Is the Kemper profiling amplifier accessible?

[Cameron Strife]

The Kemper is a great tool as far as recording is concerned if you’re just looking for a straight amp. As far as the amps, I would like to profile, I don’t own them anymore, like my car and Legacy, or my Mesa boogie mark four for example. So that’s not really an issue for meAs far as the amps, I would like to profile, I don’t own them anymore, like my carvin  Legacy, or my Mesa boogie Mark four for example. So that’s not really an issue for me. That being said, I found various profiles, mesa, boogie amp and a carbon Legacy half stack that are probably as good or better than what I could achieve here..

I would have to hire somebody to help me set up performances in the camper to use it live, however, the quad cortex and the black spirit floorboards. Both have a mode where you can have eight or 10 presets available across the foot switches, or, you can have the bottom row, presets, and the top row B petals that you can, add and subtract that will. Again, I would need to hire somebody to help me get set up, but once it was done, it would be done.

> If you like the NueraalDSP plug ins build your own Qua cortex with a Mac and MainStage and a couple of AirStep MIDI controllers. The best part is you aren’t limited to just NueralDSP plug ins but any amp sim you would like to use. Have an amp you want to profile? Use N.A.M to profile your amp or pedals or etc and use them as a plug in in your MainStage set up.

>> Hi. I owned the fractal FM three and had no luck with it at all. The Mac and Windows apps are totally inaccessible. It’s pretty ridiculous. I did contact the company and they did not seem interested in working on accessibility not even further librarian app, etc. I currently own the Kemper profiler stage and so far, I can navigate patches on the unit, and, there are many dedicated knobs for things like volume, dry, EQ, etc. as far as the rig manager app for Mac and Windows, with jaws, or voiceover, I am able to update the firmware on the camper, audition, load, and delete profiles from the camper, and that’s about it right now. Still, it’s more access than the other units apps currently provide so it’s something. I really hope the quad cortex becomes accessible at some point. I like a lot of their plug-ins and actually purchased a few although I haven’t really had the time to dig into them yet. If you want a unit that is more blind, friendly, look at the Hughes and Kettner, black spirit 200 floorboard.
