Connections For Profiling A Computer-Based Guitar Amp Simulation; Taking A Profile - Kemper PROFILER Grundlagen Anleitung

14 KEMPER PROFILER
✔ ✔
The Profiler can only take an accurate profile of preamp stomp boxes, such as overdrive and distortion pedals,
EQs and filters, tube preamp pedals, and so on. Attempting to profile a delay, reverb or modulation pedal is un-
likely to work as expected.

Connections for Profiling a Computer-Based Guitar Amp Simulation

• Connect your guitar to the INPUT of the Profiler.
• Connect the DIRECT OUTPUT/SEND from the Profiler to the appropriate input on your computer's audio inter-
face.
• Route the output of your guitar amp simulation software to a specific hardware output of your computer's audio
interface.
• Connect this output to the RETURN INPUT of the Profiler.
✔ ✔
Be sure to disengage the noise-gate in your guitar amp simulation software before profiling it.

Taking a Profile

Once the reference amp is setup just the way you like it, it's time to start profiling. Don't worry, once you have
read through this guide and tried it for yourself, we are sure you'll agree that profiling is a very simple and
straightforward process.
Start by choosing a Rig in Browse Mode. It's a good idea to choose a Profile that is somewhat related in character
to the reference amp. This will give you the chance to compare the existing Rig with that of the setup you are
about to profile, thereby ensuring that you get a result that is even better suited to your needs.

Switch off any effects loop in the Rig you have chosen, to prevent your reference amp from sitting in the effects
loop of its own profile. Effects loops are indicated by the LED color white.
