Nice feature. I wonder if these features will help with correcting that thing Kemper does and its known for. That cooked wah sound. Thank you for the video HW 🌟
I'm still unsure what the liquid "tone stack/profile" is. Let's say I have an amp that has two modes on the same channel. Apart from having to do 2 captures/profiles, would I also have to have 2 different tone stacks selected for the 2 profiles? Since the 2 modes might have different values for a certain pot. An example is Victory Super Sheriff. That has a "presence shift" button that shifts the frequences that the presence is targeting. Would that require 2 different tone stacks in kemper (in addition to 2 different captures), or only 2 different captures?
Hi HW, actually I enjoy the kemper tone stack for most amps, but I have a question. Does the gain knob behave as the actual gain knob in the amp? (gain staging, sound wise) because that would be my last wish, for having a profile "to rule them all".
Very well, but what happens if I have profiles of very rare, unique amplifiers or 80s preamps that are not on the list of compatible amplifiers with the liquid profile?
In the past you talked about how the Kemper was not good when boosting gain of a given profile but was more accurate reducing gain largely because the profile was a snapshot of the amp settings but could not predict how the gain would change when boosted. My question is, does liquid profiling now make the Kemper more accurate for boosting gain? Thanks.
It can now extrapolate the data from a known gain reference to certain frequency tables. That language sounds good. (Pushes glasses up) Cool! Thank you update day!
So will this allow us to take profiles with too much gain (for my taste)... and dial them back and have a usable & more realistic results? If you update the profile with the correct model?
It sounds really good, the only thing we can't feel, as we see without playing, is when you channel your conscious through that equipment and how if feels as the player/creator of that sounds, but it sure sounds great on my speakers. I remember many years ago when getting my first tube amp, I moved from playing a small solid state Marshall bedroom amp, which I loved and enjoyed, but I went to an AC30 tweed with 2x12 greenbacks, and the biggest change I noticed was the direct connection and immediate attack and unforgiving presence. It took a little time to adjust to the immediacy of the AC30, but after getting used to that, It was a massive sound with a directness between thinking and the sound coming out the speakers and moving the air. But what you got going there sounds great man, even had me on Reverb looking at those Tokai guitars, really on the money with your sounds. Winning!!! 👍🔥🎸🎼🙏
Just connect your kemper to your greenbacks with a D power amp, and you will get the same, kemper has the lowest delay of the mayority of digital units
Nah, they took 10 years to come with the "capture" process, kemper is light years ahead in the modeling game. You only need to get into the amp settings to understand. No other option has that.
What kemper needs to hurry up and release is a smaller (much) smaller unit that only loads profiles I don’t have a dozen amps to profile and would only buy profiles so doubtful illl ever profile anything (like a lot of users) They’re missing out on a major market share
@@ToneJunkieTV I was just looking through other videos to find this answer.... Are these the 36th Anniversary set? I'm looking for something to swap into a PRS SE 594....
So they released a kemper with gain and tone knobs that don’t work, and now they work like how they should? Not feeling excited, but felt like we have been robbed of our time tweaking fake buttons.
Until they come out with something new with a real screen that has good viewing angles and contrast, I'm still not getting one. Hopefully we'll see something new at NAMM this year.
HW - i think the first thing you should do is that Purple Plexi. The hair colour maybe gone, but that amp is there to be liquified! :). Would love to get my hands on a Direct version of that….or is it just simple to do yourself?
Another thing I'd like to see in Profilers, Modelers, Simulators, and Emulators, is a set of Parameters that extends what is/was available in the original gear. This will establish the Profilers, Modelers, etc. as devices that can far exceed the original gear could do, instead of just imitate them. That would open up new creative possibilities.
Hopefully after spending 100 of $$ in your profile sets, you will make your BMT and G settings available for us to elevate our library of TJ profiles. :>)
The first five minutes of this video has convinced me I'll never use one of these items. I enjoy playing guitar too much to waste so much time "dialing in" tone. Thanks!
All tech is aging...doesn't mean it doesn't sound great and work for MOST musicians. The Kemper wasn't made for snobs like you, mate. It was made for people who love to play guitar.
I guess I should just toss the old bassman, ac30, and marshall that are sitting behind me right now. Jeez talk about some aging pieces of tech...hope there's room for the deluxe reverb in that trash bin. F'ing dinosaurs.
Imagine how complex is an analog amp if a digital modeling must add all this features to mimic a real amp. What a waist of time. Buy a real one and play.
