  • Brilliant! haha. They'll be making Andertons branded profiles sooner than you can say "snake oil".

    Just emailed Andertons and Dawsons, on the off-chance they'd be open to the idea (for a fee). If you don't ask, you don't get...!
    Don't Andertons work the The Amp Factory? Good idea though.

    We could always just all buy an amp from Gear4Music and return it the next day. I don't have any amps either

    Check out my band Coral Snake if you like original hard rock!

  • I have a babyface pro interface which is portable and really is really good. I also have a macbook pro we could use. Just need mic's - as well as the amps and cabs!

    Totally agree, some great profiles out there, sometimes I wonder if its the Amplification side that is colouring the Profile more than the Profile itself iyswim

    Haha, you're not wrong there guys. Fact is though, it's a constant battle of seemingly flying through hundreds of profiles, or only a few even, only to find that the only profile of one of your favourite distortion boxes is profiled with a really bassy and shit sounding profile.

    Try finding a good profile with a Big Muff. Or try finding a profile of a Tube Driver or TD clone through a Laney Lionheart...it's niche, yes, but I've yet to find a profile that sounds like what I used to have with my old pedals.  I spent 10 years+ crafting my perfect pedalboard and amp setup and sold it for various good reasons, and went digital. Ultimately, digital is way more versatile manageable and friendlier, but that's not to say I don't miss the tones I used to get with my old gear.

    This is why we're talking such nonsense. :-)

  • I am okay at recording but a Kemper profile is a different animal - real pain...the profiles out there cover basically every amp with a better result that most mortals are going to be able to coax without spending loads of time and money.

  • That's what worries me. I tried profiling over the weekend and it ain't easy!

    Some of the commercial ones aren't that great. I bought the Amp Factory Lazy J pack, and the J20 in that pack didn't have a Blue in.  It had a 15" speaker of some kind.  I got something better with just an SM57 straight into the Kemper without any preamps.

    Having said that, I recently got some Brian Carl Lazy J profiles and they are very good.

    There are a couple of Amp Factory profiles I like, but overall the Michael Britt and Brian Carl ones seem to be better.  I've not really tried many of the Tone Junkie ones but they do have a good reputation.

    I thought the top commercial profilers dialed in the sweet spots for each amp?
    If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.

    Another video from NAMM, CK says there should also be a powered Kemper Kab, they demo some more of the editor and also talk about extra reverb effects not in the current beta :)

  • Totally agree - some are rubbish or need tweaking but overall vastly better than the majority of us can achieve.

    Man the editor looks amazing, they really look to have knocked it out of the park

    (Ps, they did a real shite job of cutting that question out liked he asked....typical namm folk, desperate for uploads)

  • My one profile wish would be a proper Gilmour fest, Big Muff, Tube Driver, Hiwatt. Done.

    The shite that's about for that has been absolutely dire.

    You can profile every minute detail and it won’t sound like Gilmour, sad but true

    Absolutely. I don't want it to. But I would like to have a profile of the pedals and amp he uses so I can enjoy the way they sound with that amp :-)

    Someone has done a profile of the Gimour Hiwatt.  Might be the Amp Factory.
