Kemper Profiler MK 2

[Mikael Dez]

In my country we NEVER use calendar dates to determine when a season start. It's just not something we are brought up doing. I didn't even realize other countries were relying on fixed dates to even google it.

That is very confusing for logistic type stuff. I get it, but man

Still, your point is that some sites are so far over the top for their product that reasonable comparison is considered ban-worthy.

They seem to think so, which is logically ridiculous.

I see a lot of manufacturer forums and they all have problems, but Kemper is in a league of their own. If they spent half the time answering questions as they do editing people's thread titles, it might actually be useful. I find the moderator condescension there to be hilarious, but I suppose I might feel differently if I was the one being banned.

I don't know if Kemper forum is the worst of such forums, but for me it's definitely bad in its own, unique way.

After a while you get to know this bizzare mix of condescension, lack of involvement when important and obvious questions are repeated, and then the obsessively mechanical focus on shutting down minor "derailing".

Heck, even if it is not true, at times it's felt as if they really dislike their customers...

.. Including the ones basically playing the full time role of Kemper apologists/attack dogs, or some big fans of Kemper who have been super helpful to others for years and years (well, one guy in mind) .. and then are arguably treated like disposable turd burgers.

Spring and autumn in Finland:

Winter:

Summer, which last for about 2 days:

Thanks to global warming, we've been able to stretch it to two weeks.

So by that notion I expect the new Kemper modeling to release somewhere between that guy putting on a shirt, and the yard swing freezing again.

Call me skeptical, but this seems to be taking quite some time to "release" .... although I guess Euro Summer isn't over yet

I was banned when I told a mod to go fuck themselves

Did they at least follow your advice?

To this day, nobody knows. They can just smell ointment in the air, and hear the screams of ghostly apparitions wandering through the city.

Things have changed since Kemper announced their new profiling and the Mk2. Line6 announced an entire new generation of modeler. Kemper might now be regretting their new profiling announcement, and might be hoping people have forgotten about it.

That makes no sense, why would Kemper release a new product and hope people forget about it?

We're nowhere close to QC levels of time slip. We're still several weeks inside of the expected time frame for the announced release.

It hasn't been released . Anyway, the competitive landscape has changed since then and Kemper has walked back the claims from their first announcement, so even Kemper's enthusiasm about the new profiling seems to be waning. My point is they may be having second thoughts about whether this was a good idea.

This kind of talk is purely pulled out of thin air, pure speculation and it makes no business sense to hope your potential customers forget you’re about to release a new product, this is like ANTI-business 101

so is thinking that nobody is going to move in the space for a decade and just keep telling people everything is perfect as-is, but here we are.

Yeah I don’t have an opinion on that, but to spend all that R&D, manufacturing costs, marketing, etc etc etc and then go “omg Line 6 is releasing something, better curl in a ball and shut down” is just stupid and I can’t believe someone would think a company would do that.

While I agree with your latter part, they did just slap a fresh coat of paint on a decade old processor. There doesn’t seem to be much in the of R&D.

For the new profiling? They have done no marketing, no manufacturing, and we have no idea of the size of the R&D. The Mk2 hardware update was about the smallest update humanly possible.

I'm not saying they are doing anything stupid. I'm just saying they might not be as enthusiastic about the new profiling as they were three months ago, and that may be why there hasn't been any news.

You’re spouting random thoughts that have no basis in reality - just what you think might be happening, is why I replied. It’s just garbage really

It's an opinion, based on the facts I cited. If opinions bother you, wow, are you ever in the wrong place.

 

[Mikael Dez]

And I’m not a kemper guy or ever will be, FYI, I don’t give a fuck about this company, but I think a lot of stupid shit is said about companies by armchair experts on this site like they know what’s going on, and honestly I don’t see how it’s valuable at all to the conversation

Lol what facts, that they’re quiet and Line 6 announced a product so you fit a square peg in a round hole?

Edit: I love talking about opinions when it isn’t diarrhea to fill a forum void
