@jameslewis2635 7 лет назад

I have seen a Kemper in action a few years ago and was impressed how discernible it was compared with the amp being profiled it was. The only thing holding it back in my view was the price. Unfortunately as they still cost the best part of £1400 for the lowest end model in the range, that situation has not changed. Edited to correct spell check issue.

@ScienceofLoud 7 лет назад

Chris Kocher I'd love to take some of these blindfold tests. It looks exceptionally difficult, especially in something like this when your expectations and preconceptions throw you right off. Perhaps if I'm ever down that way I'll phone ahead and see if they are interested in me popping my head around the door.

@diegotobar6839 7 лет назад

Heres my take on this: This is an expensive unit. And for good reason, It sounds killer and when profiled correctly can sound exactly like its tube brother. Take an "affordable" modeling/profiling amp and see how it stacks against lets say a ac15 and a profiled ac15 on the kemper. The whole discussion between why modeled amps/solid state "never" sound like a "real tube amp" is because no one invested the resources in getting it right. Looks like kemper did.

@ibrarmohammed1679 7 лет назад

hit the nail on the fucking head man i couldn't put it better myself

@ibrarmohammed1679 7 лет назад

Beowulf Possibly this is just showing it can be done perfectly with software, perhaps in the future as technology progresses the affordable amp may well sound very close to the real thing and the midrange amp will sound like this thing in the video

@diegotobar6839 7 лет назад

Now this will cause an uproar in the amp market! Why pay for a Mesa Triple Rec when I can have a Mesa, and a Twin, and a JCM, and an ac30, all profiled into one for less than any of them.

@jotun725 7 лет назад

So you can have several $1000+ amps for the cost of just the one unit.

@ElevenBravo 7 лет назад

+Beowulf Because if you have a Kemper, you're not just buying ONE high-end valve amp, you're getting ALL of them and everything in between.

@ettiennegroenewald2901 7 лет назад

The moment kempers get affordable it will totally destroy 90% of the amp market. It wil happen sooner or later. Just look on the kemper forums, people just want everyone to profile everything and share it. No one gives a crap about the amp companies, just let us profile your amp and share it then tell you some stupid reason why its not having a negative effect on your company. Kemper is a fantastic invention, but dont be fooled in thinking tube amps will still be around or widely use in a few years if kempers get affordable, the only thing preventing these tube amp companies from going down hill is the fact that most people just cannot afford a kemper. thats all. even used thy are bloody expensive. The only reason I dont own one is because I cant afford one, the moment I can get one ill sell my 6505 and never look back. Read up on how many kemper owners whnt and sold all their amps and cabs, as well as stomp boxes, its just not needed. So anyone thinking kemper will not destroy the tube amp industry is delusional or they just cant afford a kemper...yet.

@edwinalvarez1086 7 лет назад

dude completely agree! but maybe not because someone needs to build new amps to model so I don't think it'll make real amp companies obsolete but it will take away a lot of their business

@JackBealeGuitar 7 лет назад

I think this is as true a statement as the kindle will destroy paper books. You've forgotten that humans are romantic creatures, there are many who will anyways enjoy the smell and look of valves. Maybe foolish

@DanieleGiannattasio 7 лет назад

The kemper IS cheaper than amps...quite a lot actually. I sold my amp that was more expensive and all my pedals. Now I can have every sound I need and I don't even care if the kemper sounds like a specific valve amp, as long as it sounds like I want/need.

@mus-dos4763 7 лет назад

in what universe is the kemper cheaper, as far as i know it cost 2000 bucks, maybe a 100 watt boutique would cost about that much

@DanieleGiannattasio 7 лет назад

In Europe these are the prices of some famous amps and I think the Kemper is fairly cheap compared to these, and you can profile them all...then yes, consider also vintage amps I'm not including here (prices taken from Thomann): Kemper - 1699 Euro Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III - 859 Euro Peavey 6505 - 899 Euro Vox AC30 C2 - 922 Euro Orange TH30H - 969 Euro Marshall 2555X Silver Jubilee - 1.390 Euro Vox AC30 C2X Blue Bulldog - 1466 Euro Marshall JTM45/2245 - 1590 Euro Friedman Amplification Pink Taco PT-20 - 1590 Euro Diezel D-Moll 100 Head -1622 Euro Engl Savage 120 E-610 - 1739 Euro Fender 65Twin Reverb - 1855 Euro PRS Archon Head - 1945 Euro Orange Rockerverb 50H MKIII - 1968 Euro Marshall JCM 800 Reissue 2203 - 1990 Euro Rivera Fandango 55 Head Black - 2090 Euro Orange Dual Dark 50 - 2090 Euro Orange Rockerverb 100H MKIII - 2099 Euro Engl Invader 2 E642/2 - 2199 Euro Diezel Hagen - 2535 Euro Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier Reborn - 2768 Euro Diezel VH4 KT77 - 2939 Euro Rivera KR7 BK - 2999 Euro Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier - 3111 Euro Fender 57 Custom Twin Amp - 3111 Euro Mesa Boogie Roadster - 3333 Euro Mesa Boogie Mark V Head - 3333 Euro Mesa Boogie JP-2C Head - 3799 Euro Friedman Amplification JJ100 Jerry Cantrell - 3.990 Euro Vintage or other HW amps - More Euro PS: KEMPER YOU SHOULD PAY ME FOR THIS!

I've had a Kemper for a few years - unpowered rack version plugged into the effects return on a Marshall. The great thing about the Kemper is that it's NOT the death of valve amps at all! Profiles don't exist without the amazing amps to conjure them up.. it's a great way to refine your wishlist of real heads to buy also :) Also laughed at Rob saying he's never got a challenge wrong before, in general he is brilliant, but I guess he forgot about that time he kept picking a Squier tele over the expensive custom shop one :D I keep thinking I should rent Kempers locally to see which bands going by have left their profiles onboard..

@PsychoToaster 4 года назад

@@jeffhudson2346 actually I just switched to a stereo rig and face the challenge on how to get my pedal board etc. to work in stereo. also the selector switch/looper I am running has limited capabilities for that. from this perspective a kemper could take a lot complexity of what needs to be taken to a live gig. as we only play our own songs I have my preset for each song, so that would suit perfect for preconfiguration. but i guess it depends on each situation, for me it would fit!

@jeffhudson2346 4 года назад

@@PsychoToasterI'm at the stage in my playing where I don't need the features that Kemper offers, all I use is a single channel tube amp, a few pedals not a lot of dancing around turning things on and off. That said, if you are not the kind of player that I am, I can see where a Kemper can be very beneficial.

@anthonymccarthy4493 4 года назад

David Elvis I already converted. No more cabs, heads blowing fuses or tubes. No more lugging pedal boards and tons of extra patch cables, spare power supplies, etc. Many clients and groups I have played with cannot believe that it’s a digital unit. It’s a game changer and an obvious reason why many other professionals have converted to Kemper.

@hugosimoes3981 6 лет назад

Andrew Baena Do you actually have to own the real amp in order to play the original tone? I mean like, do you have to record or mic up a real amp, cab and mic first? Or when you buy the kemper, does the amp tones come already within the kemper?

@jeanvaljean3045 6 лет назад

i dont own one but i believe there are profils on the net, some are free some are not, i dont know in which proportion tho. but what i've heard is that if there isnt a profile of the amp etc that you want, its not easy to achieve this on your own except if you are a sound engineer or tweak master. But then is it worth it to own one when you're mostly playing at home ? if u got the dough why not i guess but even then it wouldnt be worth it imo. take a look at the Two Notes Audio Engineering, it might suit you more.

I could tell. They were hearing it from a Marshall cabinet in a room. I was listening through Behringer A3030B Ribbon tweeter loaded, which allowed me to hear the missing really high end presence frequencies, that modellers don't produce. Also modellers, tend to have a little more bass in the overall tone. I think the models of the real amps were really close though.

@NBmusoman 7 лет назад

@jamrug3472 7 лет назад

Got it right. I think Kemper have more sterile, "too proper" sound without micronoises etc but it could also be my mind or guess... Anyway I've been using digital stuff instead of valve amps for quite a while because today's modellers can produce really good sound.

@trojan1111 7 лет назад

There is a critical detail missing from this challenge. Volume. The volume level of all outputs must be identical. Science has shown that the brain perceives the louder sound to always be perceptibly "better". Audiophiles in the home audio reproduction and studio world know this. All output levels should be set with an SPL meter and all equipment given equal warm-up time.

For the shear joy of feeling the thump in your chest and your hair move from the air your cab is pushing....tube cranked to 11...that was, is and always will be "rock n' roll". Flying to europe to play an hour long afternoon set at a 3-day festival....well that's called having a job. Like any other job, the more efficient a touring musician is, the better he/she will be at their job. So i guess it just depends on what your goals are. If you are a kid dreaming big...get what you can afford and stick to the standard guitar, amp, pedal set up. You will be a better player if you spend your time learning how play, rather than chasing tones. If you are having a mid life crisis and the therapist, affair and weed didnt work....get les paul and a marshall stack...and a storage unit to play in.

@GoldRaptor00 7 лет назад

are people really that offended by technology progression that you have to make a two minute PSA warning them ahead of time, that a digital amp is used, to avoid hurting them?

@dannyblau3850 7 лет назад

The answer is, yes. This is the internet and people will go nuts on literally anything.

@Toolsquatch 7 лет назад

I'll never understand the backlash against digital amps, it's like "ruining my childhood"-caliber animosity.

@Toolsquatch 7 лет назад

People have a digital stigma though, they won't even give digital amps a look and feel insulted by even the suggestion of trying one out.

@Toolsquatch 7 лет назад

Tell that to the guys who write 'em off, I'm no valve purist!

@Toolsquatch 7 лет назад

I think it goes beyond that though, it's borderline fetishism: people *look down* on anything that isn't their "beloved" valve amps and analog effects, like not having what they champion as being the real thing is an embarrassment and means you don't take your craft seriously (which is absolutely ridiculous, because the gear absolutely does not make the musician contrary to what many brand loyalists will tell you). Making due with what your budgetary constraints allow you to afford or just not being comfortable with spending thousands of dollars on gear isn't allowed, which is ironic considering how musicians have always been seen as starving artist types.

Goes to show things like "the delay when I play a sim" and "the compensation of the low end" are on the mind, if you want to hear things in the sim you will, but they are not there.

@andrewdimartino7426 7 лет назад

I absolutely love these blind tests! As a relatively new player you hear lots of stereotype opinions that most beginners just accept because "hey he's better than me he must know a thing or too." Its amazing what happens when your remove bias and get the chance to decide for yourself and make the decision that is right for you.

@maiareinaldo 5 лет назад

@stephen9944 7 лет назад

***** It brought super high end hardware to it's knees. 30FPS @ anything over 1680x1050 was a myth at ultra high settings, it took probably more than a year for hardware to catch up.

Saxon uses Marshall JVMs in the studio but bring Kempers out on tour with that album studio tone profile loaded up - BIG money saved on shipping costs, consistent tone despite widely varying weather conditions, no wear & tear on expensive tube amps and resulting repair bills, etc. SMART thing to do.

@audioproductionmusicproduc8518 7 лет назад

For all guys here. Never make your decisions from what you hear in tests on youtube. Make your own tests then decide what better for you. For your taste, for your music, for your 'feel'. Rob and Cap are great entertainers but they don't play the same. They don't make A/B test. Cap makes decision based on 3ms that he hears from the distance from a cab thinking it's Kemper. The same with guitars. You can't watch some video and think 'Yeah. It's LP Studio sounds like this. I'll buy it'. There are no two absolutely identical guitars, gears etc. You go in the store and there are two guitars with serial numbers xxxx26 and xxxx27 and they will be a little different. You put two U87s in from of a vocalist side by side and record one take. They are different. So test by yourself. Kemper is great no question. Chears!

@JohnShalamskas 5 лет назад

YES! RU-vid video reviews are at best a nudge in the right direction. You must go to the guitar store and try out the equipment yourself to do a proper comparison. Or just order everything and return the ones you don't want to keep (this can lead to big hassles and expense though.)

@tusharistherails 7 лет назад

@SteveUnderhill 7 лет назад

This was the most fun I've ever had on this channel. I'm so glad I played along. HERE BE SPOILERS MAYBE I TRIED TO WORD IT CAREFULLY OKAY I struggled until the end when they dialed back on the last amp. The way it cleaned up versus the one before had me dead set with Rob and Lee. Made the reveal that much more exciting!

@laustenfound 6 лет назад

That crazy double pinch harmonic at 19:02 Rob looked over to see if it really did happen, then wanted to make it seems like it was purposeful. #PinchFromHell #DimebagDarrell

@themoisteroyster9705 9 месяцев назад

F**k i love you guys!! I've watched this before but have just bought a Kemper Kabinet so found myself on RU-vid watching this again and i must say....you make watching your videos fun and somehow a bit interactive. You all have different personalities and bring a different flavour to what you create. Awesome. Keep it up. You lads are what RU-vid and GAS is all about. Rock on

@themoisteroyster9705 9 месяцев назад

I'll follow that up with saying that i am from Oz but when i next in the UK i am coming to your store to buy a new axe in person to give it a backstory and a little more feeling that means something to me (if not anyone else) in my guitar journey. P.s. a signature from the lads wouldn't go astray 😉

@ayeapprove 7 лет назад

I don't think anyone in their right mind still thinks that they can tell the difference of a snapshot and the real thing BUT as the name states it's a SNAPSHOT of one amp setting. The rest of it is where it gets interesting. Does it behave like the real amp if you change all the knobs on the EQ section of the kemper? Also you can't move the mic like on a real amp/cab. This is not a simulation of an amp but a snapshot that can be changed with presets on the kemper. I think the next evolution of this is going to be a combination of capturing snapshots and creating simulations.

@Mordecai06 7 лет назад

No, the kemper goes really harsh if you increase gain, that's why you take proflies of different setings of the amp.

@medikamensch 7 лет назад

Haven't had any issues with customizing my rigs. The the gain and eq controls work really well and the pure cabinet function prevents the sound from becoming too harsh. Go get one, mate :)

@Mordecai06 7 лет назад

Yeah go get one, there are a lot of cheap options on eBay, I guess everyone is getting rid of their units at a cheap price just for fun.

@medikamensch 7 лет назад

Just saying, I'm perfectly happy with mine.

@Mordecai06 7 лет назад

I'm serious, if you want to buy one don't spend $500 extra in a new unit, buy a used one on eBay

@DannyBeardsley 7 лет назад

Great video. I'm interested to see your thoughts on the Fractal Audio Axe FX ii. I'm sure a lot of people would like to see a demo video from you guys!

@d04bl3 7 лет назад

Yeah like a Axe FX vs Kemper video. I've always wondered about the differences!

@flips220 7 лет назад

The problem with that is Anderton's usually demos what they stock in store, and they don't carry Fractal. Actually, pretty much no one carries Fractal.

@themariokartlick 7 лет назад

Fractal doesn't sell through retailers AFAIK.

@DannyBeardsley 7 лет назад

I'm sure these guys can get hold of one to demo.

@flips220 7 лет назад

Daniel Beardsley Right, but that's not the point of Anderton's videos. They're about advertising the gear they carry in their store. Sure they do lots of fun stuff, but it's still based around their stock. At the end of the day, this is all business, and Fractal isn't part of their business.

@GazMoz78 7 лет назад

I suppose the saving grace is that the Kemper profiles actual amps, so we still need valve amps to profile. I must say from what I've heard of Kemper it does sound superior to AxeFx and Helix, time will tell.... But the price will have to come down a fair bit

@ThomasStaunton 7 лет назад

@Raezioo 7 лет назад

Can we now finally close the discussion about how Kempers aren't like the real deal. My god, things change. Same goes for years ago. Everybody playing acoustic, and boom, suddenly someone brings an electric guitar to the market. Wtf is this thing. Same goes for the Kemper, in 10 years, these will dominate the industry.

@MaggaraMarine 7 лет назад

The thing is, acoustic guitar is still relevant (I think acoustic, non-amplified music will always be relevant and you can't really completely replace it), but when modeling technology advances and becomes really cheap, it makes the old amp technology basically obsolete. I think it's more comparable with CD's vs cassettes/vinyl. Maybe tube amps will become kind of a niche thing just like vinyls have become.

@SW-by9ob 7 лет назад

@j.c.jenkins9748 7 лет назад

@MrUltraworld 7 лет назад

Thomas Gibbs By the time you buy an amp, a decent cabinet, effects etc, you may have $3k invested. BUT it may have taken 10yrs to accumulate it all. You add a piece at a time, you carefully research that piece. If you get it home and you don't like it, you return it and get a different one. Diving in head first is scary. The one thing the Kemper lacks is decent effects. Line6 has better effects. For $3500, this thing should have amazing effects.

Nah man, paying my rent, my phone bill, bought my own car, paying the insurance myself, and funding a band, and paying rent, sure I'm right up against the line financially but I love it and if I can do that on minimum wage then someone with a higher paying job should have no problem, unless you are a parent which is understandable cos that's a whole different game :)
