Kemper unveils their new Liquid Profiling technology to be available with PROFILER OS 10.0 currently as a public beta.
Since Kemper's invention of Profiling modern guitar players had the choice of enjoying the superior sound quality and authenticity of Profiles, or the faithful amp controls of a modeling amp. Now the agony of choice is over. For the first time ever the acclaimed patented profiling technology gets seamlessly assimilated with modeling.
How does the Liquid Profiling work?
Well, it works basically exactly like the „former“ profiling process. Just add the step selecting the target amp model from the menu. Then profile "that“ amp head through your trusted 4 x 12“ with your favorite microphones and Mic-Pres. Done! Compared to your regular Profiles the Liquid Profile now features the exact authentic Tonstack and authentic "gain-behavior “. The limits of the snapshots are a thing of the past.
Profiles have been acclaimed since day one. But users were irritated by the generalized Amp EQ for further tweaking, also the tonal subtleties of increased or decreased levels of gain were not completely authentic. For the players turning the amp knobs for changing tones didn’t deliver the results as they were familiar with from the real amp. But now with Liquid Profiling in OS 10.0 they can play authentic. Or, of course, even try Tone Stacks of a classic Class A combo on a Plexi Head and so much more!
And again, creating Liquid Profiles is pretty straight forward and the user experience is flawless. Profiling and Modeling! You are getting both worlds, not only the best of both worlds. Both worlds! That’s a bold statement, yes. With the Profiler you always have access to bold worlds!
Currently OS 10.0 public beta is available for free from the Kemper Website. It is recommended to not use beta versions for production and touring. From the start there is also Liquid Profiling content available for free from the most renowned Rig vendors out there: Michael Britt, Guido Bungenstock, and the RigBusters. Users can access these Rig Packs from the corresponding Rig Manager.

Kemper today announce the immediate availability of PROFILER OS 8.2, featuring a complete new FUZZ Drive System for the acclaimed KEMPER PROFILER and much more.
Primitive, for some even distinctive, gnarly-ness in guitar tone has become popular again. Fuzz distortion is back as a tonal and stylistic statement in contemporary music production. And there is also the movement and demand for authenticity and the praise for the go-to classic Fuzz pedals: Jimi's Fuzz face, Tycobrahe Octavia, Rocket Octavia, the likes.
Kemper now has taken the time and looked at all the classic pedals and checked every nuance and tonal detail to build a revolutionary FUZZ System for the PROFILER. That delivers the most important Fuzz tones of the trade and beyond. And, as it happens all in just one device, guitarists can morph seamlessly through the history of Fuzz tone, from the 50s to today - and even tomorrow!
To make access to the classics as easy as possible the FUZZ Drive comes with a set of presets that take you straight to the basic tones of Fuzz Face, Octavias, etc. Guitarists can take it from here into yet completely unexplored tonal territory by cranking the parameters and adding further destruction FX from the PROFILER's crusher arsenal.
With the also new offering of a vast array of Factory Presets, guitarists now have immediate access to not only the entire world (and beyond) of FUZZ tones but also any FX type of the trade. Just spend some quality time with your favorite guitar and the presets to get inspired, and just play!
For supporting the new KEMPER Powered Kabinets the KEMPER Kone Menu now also features a new Wattage Meter and a comfortable boost for the outputs to get the extra kick with external power amps for driving KEMPER Power Kabinets and other Kone equipped cabs.
Also with the new Studio Equalizer parameters, Steep Low and Steep High the filters can be switched from 1st to 2nd order, and the expanded gain controls expanded to +/- 18 dB for extra bite and surgical tone shaping.
PROFILER OS 8.2 comes also with the new Rig Manager 3.2 (Mac & Win), both are a free download for all owners of a KEMPER PROFILER from the Kemper Website.
