I found the Kemper worked best when you left the EQ flat as intended with the original profile. I always liked creating my own sounds so I felt a bit restricted. With the Kemper you can get overwhelmed with Amp choices, but what you rapidly find is that you will have say top 5 distorted, top 5 clean, top 5 crunch and you keep going back to your favs essentially making huge numbers of amps/ rigs pointless. The weird thing is a lot of the distorted high gain profiles sounded a bit samey? Maybe that's the reality of high gain I dunno :ph34r:
