Kemper Unveils the Profiler Stage

The Stage is a complete Profiler that comes loaded with hundreds of amp profiles.

Germany (July 22, 2019) -- Today Kemper unveils the Kemper Profiler Stage, the acclaimed Kemper Profiler digital guitar amplifier combined with the Profiler Remote — the quintessential foot controller for the Profiler.

The Kemper Profiler Stage starts shipping in two days, on Wednesday, July 24th, 2019 9pm PST. It is available for Euro 1600,- and USD 1700,- as well as GBP* 1450,- from the Kemper Online Store and dealers worldwide. *(GBP price might vary depending on current exchange rates)

The Profiler Stage is no mere accessory — it is a complete Profiler. It offers the same features and the legendary sound as the well-known Profiler Head and Rack, and even a bit more.

Kemper Profiler Stage is a multi-effects powerhouse and state-of-the-art guitar amplifier, featuring Kemper’s unique Profiling technology for capturing the sonic DNA of any guitar amp. It also comes preloaded with a Profile pool of hundreds of the best guitar amps in the world, created under perfect conditions in professional studios worldwide.

This combination of Profiler and Remote allows to control, administer, and program Performances, as well as manage Rig switches and complex parameter morphs, all in an unparalleled intuitive manner.

The illuminated sunlight-proof display, which increases display contrast even with the sunlight’s intensity, is designed to be viewed from any distance, under any lighting conditions, and the housing is built like a tank. Just what the doctor ordered for touring musicians on dark stages or sunlit outdoor festivals!

Five buttons allow direct access to five different Rigs per Performance — tap once to select the Rig, and tap again to trigger a morphing. Entire Performances can be switched using a bank system.

Four Effect Buttons can be assigned individually per Rig. Use these to toggle pre- and post amp FX, either singly or in groups, as well as Action & Freeze functions such as Delay Infinity. Setting them up is easier than putting a new contact into your cell phone: click Effect Button, choose FX, assign, done.

Dedicated buttons control Tuner Mode and Looper, as well as trigger Tap Tempo or other assignable functions.

Up to four expression pedals can be connected to control continuous parameters of the sound. Alternatively, external switches can be connected for even more toggling functions.

The Profiler Stage features dedicated Stereo Monitor Outputs for driving two either full range or standard guitar cabinets simultaneously and independently from the direct stereo feed. Two stereo effect loops with stereo returns for each allow for connecting both pedals and outboard studio effects.
