Some interesting news from Kemper (Profiler Player)

[DLC86]

Not that I particularly care about it, but I just saw this post on Facebook, it seems they're finally making a pedal-sized profiler player

Cool! Now if they also updated the profiling to be more accurate, I imagine it would sell like hotcakes

If it is priced competitively*, it will likely sell like hotcakes with the profiling as is!

* I'm thinking no more than HX Stomp XL money

It´s Kemper´s chance to make a modern UI...

I am tentatively excited about this.

Could someone refresh my memory: I recall reading about performance differences between Kemper head/rack and Stage. I believe it was noise or something to that effect. Is there still a performance gap in some regard between the head/rack and Stage?

That would be my only source of hesitation, probably.

Oh boy.....

Please just let it be black instead of green!

Hmmmmm... I remain cautiously optimistic.

Don't know, there's quite some competition at this point and most of those competitors are definitely more accurate than the kemper.
As a pro on their side, kemper still has the largest database of free and paid profiles and now liquid profiles too.

If it's the same price as a stomp xl they'd better put some fx in it as well

For those that don't want to click into facebook, was a series of images, some had "pedalboard" replaced with "gigbags" so seems like Stomp-sized. A profiler isn't a profiler unless it profiles? So I/O could be cramped. Intrigued.

 

[JiveTurkey]

Is there a picture of it? Or no?

 

[eggpl@nt]

I wonder if this accompanies some kind of computer-based profiling like Tonex, NAM, Tonacracy, etc. Profile with your computer, then load up the profile and take it out.

This is a little more telling -- somewhere between a Stomp and an FM3 size wise:

Also looks like it might be just a profile player. Somebody needs to learn them a little bit of English.

A profiler isn't a profiler unless it profiles?

Maybe it's a profiled.

Or a pro file

@DLC86, hope ya don’t mind, I dropped the YouTube vid in your OP for those not on FB.

 

[Lysander]

Well, about fucking time!

It's kinda incredible that ToneX beat them to the punch with such a product.

As long as it plays all the OG profiles the same way the OG profilers play them, I'd be okay with this. Honestly, at this point, the Kemper intrigues me mostly because of its inaccuracies -- the Kemper sounds like the Kemper and the Kemper sounds good.

Looks like it definitely has a tuner. Effects?
