Thanks for the That Laser Shop/Kemp Kaps shoutout!! The walnut kaps have definitely been our most popular!
I nearly cried when I saw that the IPad editor release, WITH WIFI CONNECTIVITY!!!!
I hope kemper will create an hx stomp form factor modeller which is small and compact
Kemper Stage is literally a dream rig. Just one small gear and you can play with your sound wherever you want
Awesome! Now you need a smart case on green kemper color for the ipad.
::launches amazon app::
“Modular”. The perfect word to define the Kemper systems.
I was freaking out because I thought HW was going to hit the Gibson headstock on the desk! Anyway...
I initially bought a powered rack and the remote bundle (still have it). I started gigging with it and hated the setup. My particular setup required running multiple cables to and from the pedal board. To simplify my setup I ended up using an Amplifire 6 with some other pedals on my pedal board and it worked well and was incredible easy. As soon as the Kemper Stage came out I bought it. The Stage is easy to gig with and what I wanted. Now that wifi and the iPad app have been revealed it makes the Stage even more convenient. I have a TM112 Hughes and Kettner cabinet that I put a Kemper Kone into and love it, but still have to use the power amp with Stage. Weeeelll, I just bought a Kemper Powered Kab which now has completed my ultimate rig. HW is right this is the best! Kemper Stage, Kemper Powered Kab, and iPad w/ Rig Manager app.
Exactly the rig I'm building. Well, with a cheaper iPad. Looking forward to the real amp comparison!
Yeah I went a little overboard. I've been secretly wanting one but was looking for an excuse.
Merry Christmas! What a wonderful setup. BTW, The KPS is the cat's pajamas. Thank you for a marvelous job at Tonejunkies>
Hey, so I have a question. I currently have a powered toaster head, and was looking to get 2 Kemper cabs to run stereo. Is this possible to do? I noticed you did it with 2 powered cabs and a stage unit, wanted to know if that applied the other way around?
I actually think powered Kemper head is underrated as a 'one stop' solution in the real world
You can play at home through any cab w/wo Kone, record direct into DAW, take to any gig and plug into PA and/or backline cab...
Like, do any other digital modellers/profilers have that convenience? I think it solves real world problems! Stereo would be the only tricky bit...
But maybe I'm being too practical for the Kemperverse. 2 Kempers into 2 Kemper Kone full stacks and 2 ipads for my 500 AC30 profiles please 😂
Why would you get a Kemper Kab over a full range PA system?... With a full range PA you can play along to backing tracks with drums, bass, etc. Ever since I bought a PA for my music room to run my electric drums into, I've found myself running my Boss Katana's line out through my PA rather than getting sound directly from the Katana.
Especially since the Kemper has cab simulation, wouldn't it be more versatile to have a full range PA?
HW, I appreciate your videos very much! You are interesting and entertaining, and your videos are educational and helpful. Keep up the good work.
Are the Kemper Powered Kabinets loud enough for a rehearsal? I heard a few people saying they weren't loud to hear over a drummer. What do you think? Anybody have any input?
The issue I have with the kemper kab is the output. Super low volume. I also play the the power cab which is unbelievably loud for live situations. The kk is unimpressive for stage volume. The point is moot if you’re going to front of house, then why have them at all?
looking forward to the Boss/Kemper collaboration 1:03
I see stock charts in the background.... not that it has anything to do with Kemper :P
I tried the app. When I want to change the amp or cab it has a really weird choice of models. Like 10 or so. Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?
My heart leaped when you dropped the Ipad even though I saw it coming.
Will be even better when we can choose one (cloud) location for all profiles - too many TJ profiles to fit on the Kemper! Then this location can be accessed by editors running on different devices.
Can I don’t use the kemper power cab for home set-up. Rather I would plug-in the stage to audio interfacer and monitor via studio monitor
Can I only use the iPad to edit and create presets or I have to use the computer also?
And the coolest part of the whole thing is the wood sides and knobs???
Does the power Kabinet connect to Kemper unpowered head with guitar or speaker cable like the unpowered Kabinet
How much space does your 12.9
I pad pro need to run.
Did you get the 2tb
Building Helix Rig next video? The helix user need it! Great video!
Does someone sell custom overlays or front panels for the Kemper rack, then? I've never seen one in white before..
Would love to hear how it compares to other speakers too, I got the yamaha dxr10 and struggle to get it to sound as good or as responsive as through headphones. Love the profiles and all your content dude.
Thanks dude!
Did you try the Power Cab only with a UA Dream 65 in front? Without a Kemper?
Whatever you do, get the Tone Junkie preloaded Kemper!
I wonder if you can get the program or if it was manually programmed like one at a time?
Did you get to try the Trainwreck tube power amp at NAMM? How would this kemper cab compare?
Hw, I just got a Kemper head and I have it running through Yamaha h5s in a bedroom. It sounds awesome.. what do you think of this kind of set up?
HW - The problem I'm finding with this rig is that we cannot do a Wet/Dry setup with the Kemper Kone because Monitor Out is the only option for Output with these :(
I have a question. I own a Gibson Alex lifeson axcess and it's number 1 for me. I want to use a kemper with the ghost piezo to blend both outputs. HOW
Still looking for this answer. 😢
Say you wanted to run it with a few great drive pedals to go form creamy, to ambient, to hard rock? What would be the best pedal platform profile to do with this setup?
I can’t even find the powered kabinet for purchase. Where can I buy one?
HW, Enjpying your channel ! I just bought a Kemper Stage and got a referb ipad that runs the rig manager for 159.00 why did you buy such an expensive Ipad?
I got the powered toaster with a kemper kone (unpowered) if I buy a powered kemper kone cab can I run it in stereo?
Nope..
Mono is MONO.
Do you think the Kabinet is better than a mission gemini 1?
Cool!
I thought the Kemper kabinet was a passive speaker? or have they put out a powered version?
Yes. A couple months ago.
They released a powered version fairly recently.
didnt you get a qc? how does it compare?
Hey , I have a laney LFR 112 for my kemper currently is an upgrade to the kemper cab worth the change? Does it sound much better?
Hey dude, I’m in the same boat as you currently, just wondering which one to get out of the two. I’ve heard the Laney is really loud but the kabinet doesn’t have as many reviews.
power kabinets seem impossible to find.
Why not sync with MacBook air m1 Wi-Fi?
Shame Rack Unit has no built in Wi-Fi :(
Yeah, you can still use the the network cable out to a router and connect wirelessly to the iPad that way.
The ipad editor is awesome with my 12.9 Pro.
Why should someone buy the kempler cab over high quality monitors ?wouldn’t any decent monitor be better?
Don’t forget to set the stop-loss 🤣📉📈
I want a kemper now lol
Great video!! can you use 2 powered cabs with the head unit?
One downside has kept me from getting the powered cabinet. To my knowledge you can only use with Kemper. I use my hx stomp occasionally and would like an FRFR that could do both
Been thinking about this same issue. I got a powered Kabinet and I LOVE it. But I agree with your issue... I was thinking, can you run your HX Stomp into the front of the kemper with the amp and effect sections all off. Just use the cab section. Haven’t tried it, but I may try it with my brother’s Pod Go
@@somebodysomeone832 That makes sense, but I primarily use my HX stomp when I don't want to bring my Kemper or as a backup in the case (knock on wood) my kemper fails. Have you tried running pod go directly into kemper kab with cab sim still on? I'd be curious as to your results
Aaaah, your trading stocks for a living? 0:23
I'am totally new to all this while I'am never getting out of my old world stuff I have to embrace one off these new systems how.much does all this cost you please ?
The Kemper software is all free. The Stage is about 1800 but if you look used you can save a couple hundred. You don’t have to run Kemper Cabs, you can start with your amps and bypass the amp’s preamp then you’re good to go. You can use any wah pedal too
@@417altavista thankyou
With just one amp, can you create a wet-dry rig? And, if you had a third powered Kabinet, could you make a wet-dry-wet rig?
Makes no sense… the Kemper cab has to put in the monitor outs. If you put it in the direct out / master out, you are not able to use the kemper Kone feature :/ would be cool if they would add the feature to the other outputs.
I was talking quickly, I was trying to say you can keep adding Kemper Kabs and the keepers routing will let you do just about anything... 1 Kab in Mono, 2 Kabs in Stereo, 3 Kabs W/D/W.
@@ToneJunkieTV Thanks HW. Can you show us how to do a W/D/W please? There is nothing online showing this. I have a set of speakers like your Yamaha monitors, and I'd like to put them either side of me powered Kemper Kabinet. How do I get the monitors to be stereo wet, and the Kabinet dry?
How can anyone normal afford all this extra stuff. You should do a budget version of this video. a/b ??
I am perplexed by this question because all the extra stuff is cheaper than the Kemper itself. HW did create a budget rig video though

@@kirstensray He posted it AFTER I commented. But thanks #Stayperplexed
@@wolvesandguitars That is correct, he did post it AFTER this video, in response to the comments on affordability of the Kemper rig he showcased. Thank you, I will #Stayperplexed. What I'm perplexed about is the idea that there is a "budget" Kemper rig. The lowest entry point is $1700 for the Stage and even more if you get the unpowered Head/Rack with the Remote. My point is, if you got that kinda cash to spend on a Kemper, just to get in the game, what is it to spend an extra $790 on the powered cabinet or getting an iPad so you don't have to bend over. Seems obvious that the only way to save money on this rig is to to buy used or buy alternatives and buy the things you can, when you can, as opposed to all at once. Either way, the pain is in affording the Kemper and if you can do that, you certainly can figure out the rest.
Soooooooooooooo, what about Android users?
Do I spy day trading on that computer screen?
Has anyone done the math on how much this setup costs? Some of us are wondering, "HW, can anyone else afford this?". Why have 1 powered monitor, when duh... you can have two.
HW ended up making a budget Kemper setup, th-cam.com/video/rH-W3BNeGFg/w-d-xo.html, but let's be real there is no low cost Kemper setup because the Kemper alone is not a budget item. Anyone who can afford a Kemper can likely afford he ultimate setup HW described. You don't have to get everything at once. I have the Rack and when the Stage came out I sold other gear and saved to get it because that was the format I wanted the Kemper in. Later on I got the Kemper Kone to put in an existing cabinet of mine. Then later I got the Kemper Powered Kab. I got the iPad 5 years ago which still works. You don't have to get a new iPad, the old ones work just fine. If you want something you find a way.
As a guitar player, the only thing I think "simulators" have yet to solve, is the "inability" to have feedback when you use in-ears or when you are recording and can't get loud enough to get that. I've used Helix, Kemper, Fractal, Boss, etc, and the only thing I almost always miss from using a real amp is that beautiful harmonic feedback, when you stand next to an amp. If you check the video where Pete Thorn showcases a Trainwreck, you'll see exactly what I mean... :(
What crypto is this on the screen? ✌🏻😅
Turny things
Is the biggest concern about any rig whether "you have to bend over"? He's talking about reaching "knobs", or something else....
I love how all these “content creators” talk like everyone has endless amounts of money. I guess thats their job tho....push push product in order to be comped everything.
So.. sponsored vid or what?
No... I've never been sponsored by anyone, I get the question a lot about which kemper I should buy etc. If you know anyone willing to pay me to make videos let me know... LOL.
@@ToneJunkieTV ha good to know, thanks :)
