Kemper Profiler MK 2

Perhaps this thread should go to the rants section ... and allow for a less rantful discussion to emerge when there is more info?

Mods tried to curate the discussion previously and nobody was happy. It's actually pretty decent now compared to a week or two back!

We actually have a request in for some assistance with Xenforo because we attempted to put it in the Rants thread but for some reason it’s not even letting us mods reply to the thread once it’s been put there. Apparently Xenforo runs like a PC; at any given moment you’ll find something fucked up or non-functioning due to work done behind the scenes.

That is some seriously optimistic wishful thinking!

Pretty good video on Kemper palm muting response. Part of what I imagine MKII profiling may fix.

FYI, Kemper's patent has expired anyway.

Thanks for that. Hadn't considered that possibility. According to some searches, it appears the patent expired June 15, 2022.

And easily invalidated. They patented the tech that they had, not a generic idea which would have failed to hold up. The newer capture tech is very different from what Kemper did and wasn't practical if even possible when the Kemper was developed.

Having done this many times, I can tell you that the patent lawyer (a good one anyway) will push you to patent the broadest idea as this provides the most value to the company and the best protection.

As the patent is expired, it is a good explanation as to why we have seen so many others enter the fray.

I don't think there is any argument on this thread that Kemper should have done more to maintain their lead in technology and not rely on the patent to protect them forever. I believe the product was introduced in 2011. Plenty of time to prepare for the competition set to be cut loose in 2022 H2.

So it seems that capture tech is open for anyone to include in their product now. I always argue that competition is good for the consumer, but not always for a specific company.

I am quite interested to see what kind of results the Stadium gets and how tweakable the capture is.

LOL I think Kemper sounds better than the reference IMO

Agreed for this one I liked the Kemper sound a little better. It had a little more punchy midrange. Although the Kemper sounded the tiniest bit louder.

More tubescreamerish, to my ears.

Automatically accusing someone of being disingenuous is a cop out, particularly when they've got no track record of such.

It's impossible to do things right. When I'm critical about something for good reason, all of the sudden some people choose to ignore the positive things that are also being said!

I think you’re a good egg, Jon. Don’t sweat the morons.

We should crowdfund the plugin that allows for FB style 2-way blocking, so when we ignore someone, they don’t see your posts either.

Nope. I actually had the VerticalScope Phil dude completely wipe my account. I’m done with the idiotic behavior there.

For sure I swing over there on occasion to mix it up. Different group of people will have different interests and opinions. I don't get myself worked up about much and try not to kick too many hornets nests.
