Why is everyone trying so hard to make him doubt his decision?
Kemper is a solid choice

It is but it also confused me that he said he went Kemper and then next post was a fractal unit and saying he hopes the Kemper can do this. Might as well just get the unit you know can?Why is everyone trying so hard to make him doubt his decision?

Idk, I agree the concept is the same but to me the amp models are better on the fractal line so I couldn't discount a fractal unit because you didn't like helix. If ease of use is a concern, hard to go wrong with a profiling device as you statedIf you couldn't get tones you liked out of the Helix, it's unlikely you'll be happy with the Fractal
I have a Orange 2x12 oven back cab and a TC BAM power amp.What are you going to be using to monitor it with? That is the Million Dollar question.
I apparently forgot to re-read your OPI have a Orange 2x12 oven back cab and a TC BAM power amp.
Also a pair of Alto TS210 powered monitors.
Neither solution is “Top Tier,” but should be good enough for me to see if the Kemper sounds good enough for me as a heavy pedalboard/Amp Head-Cab replacement.
I will potentially invest in a Kemper Kab if I want things to sound better/different.
Playing my Helix through the Orange Cab and poweramp sounded WAY better than through the budget Alto speakers.
The reason I posted the Fractal clip wasn’t really to say “I want the Kemper to sound like this!”, it was to show everyone that I am aware of how Amazing Fractal gear can sound. I know that it is in fact superior in a number of ways, I’m just hoping that auditioning profiles will help me get my sound quicker than endless tweaking of EQs and various parameters.

100%, Amen broSuperior is what works best for you
I’m sorry, but I can’t read between the lines of what you’re saying (I’m autistic)I love that post.
Can’t claim Kemper is .. well the experience is just so different. You’ll see. But it is capable of a vibe and simplicity once I’m going that is not completely devoid of the things I respond to when using my (even) old (er) stuff.
I have no clue what “black box” vs “white box” means. Can you clarify this?I steadfastly concur with the thought of Cliff
If you want to quick-clone an amp with fixed settings, get a black box (NAM can do it for free, and eveyone says it is better than any existing profile/capture device). If you like to tweak and re-tune the tone to you taste, get a white box.
He is not into profiling because, besides the ability to change advance settings at the amp, he believes that the quality of accurate modeling is superior
No between the lines, I just loved what you wrote. I don’t want to oversell the Kemper. It’s been great for me, but not so much as a 1:1 replacement for amps, more as a best alternative, versus all the volume weight maintenance etc, and sure also because it brings a bunch of creative functionality that doesn’t exist really with analog. Hope you like yours.I’m sorry, but I can’t read between the lines of what you’re saying (I’m autistic)
