- Here, I give you 3 tips on how to improve your tone with your Kemper. The Clarity, Direct Mix & Pure Cabinet settings are very powerful and if used properly, they can really help you achive great guitar tone!!
Damn. There is no comparison. Kemper is the Adult/pro modeler. That tone is sick. Sick. SIck. Blown away.
Luckily I found this video. It solved my problems with distortion tone in kemper year ago. Now it works again
want to thank you for doing this video. i thought I had my kemper profiles dialed in to perfection with Eq's, cab/mics, etc. These small changes you recommended pushed it to tone-bliss. I go a bit higher on clarity across the board. like 2-3.0, but that's just my taste. I never messed with pure cab or direct mix until now...thank you!
Totally agree. When I tried these suggestions, it took this "white noise" for lack of a better term out of my sound that I didn't even realize was there.
One other tip for others (as it sounds like you might have it covered) is to turn off the global pure cab. I know that can impact it.
I've really only messed with Definition, but this has tempted me try the Clarity and Direct Mix knobs on some difficult profiles I have. Thanks for the video!
My pleasure!! The Pure Cab feature is terrible lol. Everything sounds better without it
I do enjoy it for headphones or just jamming by myself, but I have not used it to record anything. Even then, I usually keep it turned from 0.1 to maybe about 3.5 for jamming by myself.
@@rockyowitz each profile is unique. Some will require zero Pure Cab and some will require a little bit. Looks like you got it dialed in very well.
@@TONEWARSgearshow it did take videos like this to help me, so thanks for posting!
WHY is there a “global” Pure Cab AND a “cabinet” Pure Cab? Aren’t they redundant? I am confused by this...
Here's my live tutorial "How-To" on how to reamp with Kemper in the S/PDIF digital domain th-cam.com/video/TugtV2AHBtY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much you are so right that cabinet filter just adds a lot of weird artifacts
Incredible, it really sounds like two different rigs! I'll have to try this out!
Very great.idea....
Huge difference , I am going to try this even on some clean settings . Glad I saw this one !
Thank you!! Remember that the settings I used here arr specific to this profile.
Awesome tips, thank you!! Can't wait to powerup the Kemper and try this out
Gonna do this with my kemper in the morning 👍🏼🤟🏼
Thanks for the tips. They really made a huge difference for me. I like your approach of adding fullness to distract from the harshness at the top. Thanks again [Subscribed].
Thanks for the hints. I've been wanting to clean up some of my od tones so this is a good start!!!
My pleasure!!
wow. Yeah the artifactgs in overdrive and distortion always made me wanna turn my kemper off. Hopefully this is the solution.
Kyle Brady it’s been 4 months. Still using the kemper ?
Sorry for the late reply. Are you still using the Kemper?
Huge thanks exactly what I needed!
Man thank you! This so help us!
I just picked up a Kemper and will make use of these tips, now I need to talk to you about the profiles that you’ve made. I decided I couldn’t justify buying more amps/cabs as space and money is in short supply, plus I’m a home player only and having the ability to get 95% of tone from a Kemper will allow me to add more for much less. Now about that KSR, Badlander, etc. profiles……thanks Jarrod 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Congratulations on your purchase. You're going to love it.
Let me know if you need any help with anything
very helpful, thanks!
Huge difference. Sounds much better with your setting 👍
Really helpful video man, thanks a bunch!
Just tried it and am happy with the results
Great
Great tip, would be exciting with an update 2022, Kemper has developed over the years. If it's the same approach today? Cheers from Stockholm.
Thank you very much. Great idea! I'm gonna put this down on my to-do list
This is how I learned to make my profiles sound way better! Do you know of any good heavy jp2c profiles? I have yet to find any I'm satisfied with.. I have good ones of 5150 and archon and Mesa mark v.
Thanks for commenting. I'm hoping to do some profiles of that amplifier very soon. Stay tuned
Night and day, man. Thanks for this video!
Wow! I know what I'm doing as soon as I get home! Cheers man👍
it works thanks!
I know this guy from pressure washing forums over 10 years ago! LoL! Jared was a real honest guy that wasn’t afraid to tell the truth about when the economy was turning south, that it was affecting his business. While everyone else was blowing smoke up my ass and making me feel all alone, Jared was totally honest. Great to see you on TH-cam Jared! Personally I can’t get into all this Kemper digital stuff, I can see it probably makes gigging 2000x easier and the audience doesn’t give a real fuck about difference in tone. One thing I noticed in high gain amps the tone difference between preamp tubes between different manufacturers gets lost, so it’s only important to find tubes that aren’t microphonic and a low noise floor. I bet the kemper does a great job as well with high gain stuff
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you remember me from the good old pressure washing days. 😊
Forgive me, I'm not familiar with your TH-cam name. Who am I talking to?
And yes, the Kemper is definitely a great high gain tone product.
TONE WARS my name is Dan, from the Boston area, went by plainpainter back then, gave up on the trades a few years ago, but for a while was making good money in pressure washing, but my area got hit with too many watering bans summer after summer, it just wasn’t worth it anymore
@@voxpathfinder15r Oh my gosh! I remember you. It's good to hear from you. I'm sorry you had to give up on your business. I hope things are going well for you. What are you doing now?
Great video!
wow.....Thank you for the tips. it's real useful!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow...nice job.
The manual reads like the "Direct Mix" is a copy of the "Clean version of the amp/profile"... that's blended in. "Direct" would be that old direct into the mixer sound, yea? Maybe it should be called "Clean Mix"? Doesn't sound like it actually is a direct sound?
I always took that setting as dry tone, it really is an amazing little setting rather than tracking everything and doing it all over again in a clean tone. Then figuring out volumes.
Hello! Greetings from Italy! Would you like to write the name of pack sounds? Do you use pedals or something? Your sound is amazing, so real, my kemper profiles sounds almost all equal and a bit fake, have you some advices? Thank you!!
damn..trying this out tomorrow..thanks
Great Video Man!!!
Thank you
Great tip
Great tips !!!
holy shit, that's night and day! Thank you for this mate
Soon going for Kemper from my EVH 5153 and will be totally new tho i have had Ax8 whcih ofc is different, this seemed pretty useful and pretty sure i will return very soon, cheers :-)
This sounds amazing, thanks much for posting all this great content. Maybe I am missing something, but every time I start to dial in the Direct Mix on a distorted tone, I just hear the clean/direct signal blend in and it sounds terrible. As if I have two amps running, one clean vs another distorted. Any chance I am missing somethings ? I have pure cab disabled. Playing through studio monitors. Similar rig and same guitar. 🤔
Any other tips or suggestions on why the impact ? Even at a low setting.
I have the same issue so I set direct mix just at 0.6, not more! Did you solve that somehow?
@@edisonkane523negative..been a mystery ever since. I just dont touch that knob, dont see the point.
thanks😇
Yeah sounds great, will try as soon as I get home from work :D \m/ sounds (in the video) just like the type of problem that I have with most of the sounds. would be a great help
What kind of speakers are you playing through?
Great info nice tweak!
Thank you
Hello, sounds great! Which pack and which profile from the pack is it? Could you send me linf for the profile? Any other tweaking of profile? Like definition, power saging, change of cabinet of tweaking of cab etc.. Thank you
The profile can be found here
reampzone.com/downloads/evh-5150-mkiii-100-6l6-kemper-profiles
I only changed the settings mentioned in this video
@@TONEWARSgearshow ok, thank you 4 the Link. Could you tell me please, which concretely profile from the pack is it?
@@mirekandrassy2928 I renamed it so I can't remember the original name. That said, it's the one with a Mesa cab, v 30's sm 57 and 421 mic
@@TONEWARSgearshow and why this profile you use have the gain in "12 (hour)" and mine have more gain (4 )?
This is good, but it would have been helpful to A-B them in a mix. In a solo environment, your edit definitely sounded much better than the default settings. However, you may find that it takes up too much sonic space in a mix with drums and bass. (Maybe not, but that's why its good to compare with a mix.)
Awesome video! Just to clarify pure cab on 0 and turned off is different.
Got ya. I have it at 0
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing! When I push the Amplifier button I see the following options from Left to Right: Definition-Power Sagging-Pick-Compressor. I have the most recent software update. Is the 'Definition' the new wording for Clarity and is 'Compressor' the new wording for Direct Mix'. Any help is appreciated.
No they still mean the same thing. all you have to do is adjust the definition to your taste and add a little bit of clarity if necessary. The compression will add a little more fullness and better feel if needed. Use all of this sparingly
TONE WARS - Thanks for clarifying!
great tone!! Sorry but i see in your Kemper Profile the buttons B and C lighting on. This profile (RZ_5150MK3_S03, MESA BOGGIE, V30, SM57, 421) doesn´t bring any booster or other effects in pre-amp section. I told you because my profile doesn´t sound like yours... Do you add this effects?
amazing video. thanks for your advices. Pure cabinet settings totaly shit.
I could be wrong but isn't the pure cab designed to be used when you're playing through a full range (PA) speaker? I don;t know what speakers you were playing through but it definitely sounded better off in this case. Thanks for the video and info!
Thanks for commenting. That's a good question, everything that I've used pure cab through just doesn't sound right to me.
@@TONEWARSgearshow I have been using a Kemper direct through PA cabs for practice in the studio (not my personal equipment) and haven’t tweaked it much. I will definitely check out the pure cab setting and see what I hear. The current setup definitely is a little muddy and uninspiring.
I really dig this beast. Are you playing through cab, or monitors (if so are they FRFR?)
In this video I was plugged in direct to the interface.
@@TONEWARSgearshow thanks for the quick response. Which monitors do you have? I got myself a pair of Adam T7V and happy with them. Returned the Headrush because it does not chug. Considering the Kemper or the Axe right now.
@@josemanuelcaballero1162 I just used the mack e6 in monitors. They work good for what I do. I'm not a professional recording studio so I just use them as a reference for the things that I do on my channel.
between the kemper and the axs fx, I would definitely suggest going with the kemper. The sound and feel and limitless and choices makes the kemper the winner in my book.
@@TONEWARSgearshow Thanks, I am more inclined for the kemper as well, the room tones I have seen at low-mid level , and I think usability is a plus...seems way easier to setup even with the paired remote unit than the Axe FX III.
Nice! I don’t play prog metal style guitar like you, but that profile (with your adjustments) definitely sounds like something a real EVH 5150III could do (in other words, it does sound like an actual 5150 III).
Thank you. It's amazing how just a few minor adjustments can make such a huge difference
Thanks for sharing. Do you use xlr out or going digital? Great video
Thank you. I use XLR
Thanks
right on
I definitely heard the difference !
Sounds way better with your changes
Great video !!! Do you think this works well for lower gain profiles ?
Thank you. Every profile is different. Some will need more tweaking than others. For instance, I selected a Diezel VH4 last night and it didn't need anything but the pure cab turned all the way down. Everything else was fine.
Great video. You got a sub.
Thank you!!!
It's amazing how much it changes the feel when you play as well as the overall sound. Do you turn of the Pure Cab thing at the Main Output too, or just the one at the cab??? :)
Thanks for commenting. I just turn it off globally
@@TONEWARSgearshow but do you at the cab ?
How can l get this amazing tone? I own the Powerhead KPA...- Thank you.
Reampzone EVH...he told it in the beginning man!go buy the pack
I'm getting a horrific amount of artifacts and squealing from the Kemper no matter what high gain profile or how I set it up. This is especially prominent playing single notes. Any ideas?
Hmmmm. What are you playing through? Studio monitors, power amp and cab, frfr?
Holy shit. I am absolutely awe-struck by how mean this tone is. Does this profile come standard in the kemper?
Hello James. Thank you for commenting. This profile is from Reampzone. It's the EVH
@@TONEWARSgearshow thanks for the tip. Are the stock profiles in the Kemper as solid as this is, for metal?
@@Martell276 my pleasure. There's definitely some good "stock" ones in the Kemper. That said, most of them are so-so. I would buy them from reliable sources
@@TONEWARSgearshow thank you for the replies. I'm just on the fence with the kemper. It sounds amazing. I possibly have an opportunity to trade in my Mesa Mark V 25 towards a Kemper powered head and foot controller - provided that the store can get them from a distributor. Anyway, just trying to get an idea of what to expect. I'm gathering that people can/do spend a lot of money on professional profiles. What are some sources for profiles?
*edit - I just checked reampzone like you mentioned above. Seems like a vood source.
@@Martell276 the Kemper is definitely amazing. The biggest mistake people make with modelers/profilers is they fall into the rabbit hole.
Here's a video that can help with that.
th-cam.com/video/PUN5H-G8Twg/w-d-xo.html
Just got my kemper. I will ck it out. I have a 5150 3 head also
I'll compare both but Right on bro !
Thank you and Congratulations!! Reampzone and GGD profiles are awesome!! Check tham out
Any questions i would like to get a hold of you, thanks bro
@@jimmyttkacz2006 jarrod_reign@yahoo.com
Wow big difference!!!!
It does make a difference, but hearing it on youtube with a tablet, it just sounds like the mids have been scooped.
Which is a good thing to me.
I have a question what kind of 4 x 12 cabinet should I get with the best speakers you think because I want to run a guitar cabinet I have a marshall 1960 cab, but looking for another sound. Its 300watts, if a cab is 240watts with v30s, wd that b enough watts or?
Yo Jimmy, thanks for commenting. IMHO, the best cab is a Mesa 4x12 with V30's. You just can't go wrong with that.
If you have a Kemper, I am not sure you want a 4x12 cabinet. You can generate that 4x12 sound directly without having to mic a 4x12. So you consistently get that sound without the need of having to set up a 4x12 and your two or more microphones and without having all that stage volume.
Nice majesty
Thank you. I really love these guitars. Have you ever played one?
Got an enchanted forest 2019 6 string :)
@@progreviews not yet lol. It's on my bucket list
U=Is this on the Global setting or just each individual
profile?
I would do this for individual profiles as needed
TONE WARS the global setting on the Kemper Stage for Pure Cabinet is set at 3.0. But the Rig is set at 0.0. Should I change the Global to 0?
Hey Jarrod,how would running the Kemper thru a tube power amp and 4x12 sound??Use it like a real amp...
It sounds unbelievable. I'm going live with that exact setup at a clinic tomorrow. Hopefully you can check it out.
It will be sometime in the afternoon.
TONE WARS I will......I just can’t gel with the FRFR thing....I know it has its place,but a Kemper as a preamp thru a real tube amp and 4x12,now that might be something I can work with..
@@scottpeters4401 good to hear. I hope it goes really well. I'm kind of nervous LOL. This is my first clinic that I'm doing a livestream with. There is so much set up involved.
yeah, regarding running the Kemper through a real power amp and cab, it's glorious. You really can't get any better than that
TONE WARS you will do fine....Although I don’t play the same music as you,(I am an 80’s Metal guy),I have learned a lot from watching and listening to your videos.....good tone is good tone,right?No matter what style you play.....I look for the same type sounds and feel when choosing amps......As hard as I tried,I could not get anything out of my Helix that was as good as my real amps.....I sold it,and am either grabbing a Kemper or AxeIII in the next few weeks.....however,after watching your shootout vids,you about have me sold on the Kemper.......If I could run it thru a tube power amp and my pure magic 87 Jubilee cab,and it sound great,I would be a happy man.....Kemper...AxeIII....or a Marshall JVM....that’s what I am deciding between.....I will definitely check out your clinic tomorrow.....Thanks for all the help!!
@@scottpeters4401 thank you very much for the kind words and support. I can honestly tell you that if you run your Kemper through a tube power amp and a real cab you will be one hundred percent satisfied with it.
The options are endless. Any amp you want and it sounds and feels legit
Wish I had seen this before last night to have tried it. Bass and top end but sod all else. Boosted mids and made it worse.
Isn’t the pure cab in the output section too and a global setting?
Yes
@@TONEWARSgearshow Was it also disabled globally and not just at the cab level?
@@karlhouseknecht I just turned it all the way down
@@TONEWARSgearshow Ah. I asked because turning it down in the global section doesn't turn it off. Pure Cabinet at zero globally still has an effect on the tone. You have to disable it via the switch.
@@karlhouseknecht got ya. I'll check it out. Thank you. I know that turning it all the way down makes a huge difference
For $2,000 should not need tips. Lol Should sound great out of the box
Still no editor!!! What a joke! Kemper not only sounds out dated but looks out dated and using it feels cheap and out dated. Axe fx 3 is simply a more realistic sounding, authentic and easier to use. Even the helix in the right hands is better than the kemper now.
Honestly, I see no real reason for an editor. I can easily do everything on the unit itself. Besides, I hate having to hook up to a computer to tweak settings.
Yes, the Kemper is fugly lol. It sounds legit though. It's better sounding than the helix. Inhave both products and prefer the Kemper
@@TONEWARSgearshow For me personally and my workflow, if I'm gonna decide to sacrifice real sound of analogue for a digital imitation I want all the bells a whistles of what makes digital convenient. That means an editor.
Now you get one....
