Product Description

Kemper Profiling Amplifier PowerRack, Amplifier 19" VersionSince the introduction of modeling technology into the guitar amplifier world, guitarists have been able to access a variety of sounds and effects with relatively little effort.

But what if you want to take your own favorite sounds instead of the manufacturer's sound specifications? Prior to the release of the Kemper Profiling Amp, there were not many alternatives: either, as before the digital revolution, they dragged their entire equipment from place to place, or tried to adapt the modeled sounds of the modeling amp as far as possible to their own desires.

  • Kemper breaks new ground here. Instead of using predefined emulation of different amplifier models
  • the Profiling Amp (Nomen est Omen) creates an exact image of the sound set on the amplifier together with the connected speaker and microphone. This combines all the personal favorite sounds in one device. In addition
  • the sound profile can be edited with various floor effect emulations
  • master effects
  • equalizer
  • and so on. A separate amp fleet is not a mandatory requirement
  • because the Profiling Amplifier is already equipped with a large number of classic amplifier profiles. In addition
  • a large Kemper community has now established itself in the world where sound profiles are exchanged over the Internet.
  • Power rack version with 600 watt class D amplifier
  • Power: 600 watts into 8 ohms
  • 300 watts into 16 ohm

Frequently Asked Questions

Profiling captures the *exact* sonic fingerprint of a real amp, including its power section sag and speaker interaction, far beyond what static models can achieve.
While it can handle a wide range of amps, the best results come from well-maintained, properly biased amplifiers; a poorly performing amp will yield a poor profile.
The routing is powerful but can be daunting initially; however, the interface guides you, and pre-configured routing presets exist for common scenarios.
