The Kemper thread

I try watching That Tone Show but fall asleep after a couple of minutes.

Drink some coffee - it might just be worth staying awake as there's some interesting stuff. I get it though, there's a fair bit of guff and meaningless meandering by the 'not Thomas Dill' chap..

No pain, no gain?

I've had a Kemper for a few years on and off and I'm pretty good at dialling it in, but every now and then you do get a light bulb moment from somewhere and go "wow!" I never thought of that.  :-)

Anyway, who says the Germans have no sense of humour?
Everyone.

I was looking through my Thomann order history and spotted that it is 10 years to the day since I ordered my Kemper (rack version).

Initially I bought it for my home studio, then I started gigging it but later switched to a Helix for convenience / MIDI flexibility.  It continued to be my go-to in the studio (I don't think that I've ever used the Helix on recordings) then, in the last month or so, I've started gigging it again.

If it gave up the ghost tomorrow I'd order a replacement the same day.

It's quite incredible really for a piece of digital gear.

I'm similar - Toaster, then Rack and now Stage. I never bother to look anywhere else as I still think it's killer and does everything I need today and consider I will in the future.

Had a Stage. Sold it. Regretted that.
Now have Player Lvl 3.
Brilliant gear 
Have a Nano Cortex with a powerbank in a tiny bag for travelling but the Player is still the beast.

Does the Player Lvl 3 have amps, or is it just used for FX?

It’s equivalent to a full fat Kemper.

Got my Power Rack in 2020 (middle of the first UK lockdown). Been great since so I hope it's still good for me for another 5 years.
