The KEMPER PROFILER™ is the leading-edge digital guitar amplifier and all-in-one effects processor. Hailed as a game-changer by guitarists the world over, the PROFILER™ is the first digital guitar amp to really nail the full and dynamic sound of a guitar or bass amp. This is made possible by a radical, patented technology and concept which Kemper call "PROFILING™". The PROFILER HEAD comes with classic curves. It makes a perfect silhouette on a 4x12 cabinet. Yet it's so light and compact that it can be taken onto a plane as hand-luggage. 

For decades, the electric guitarist has been shackled to the tube amplifier as the only means of achieving "that sound". This magical combination is by no means ideal - the challenge to achieve a consistent sound from the practice room to the studio, and especially to the stage, continues to frustrate guitarists, just as it has since the early 1940s. Kemper uses proprietary digital technology to analyze the sonic DNA of your amp.

Now, you can go way beyond the boundaries of the original amp and tweak everything to your liking. Use the gain control and equalizer to adapt the sound to your guitar. Add power sagging to the distortion and tweak the power of your pick attack without compression. You can even exchange the cabinet later on. The PROFILER gives you more freedom of choice than any other real or virtual amp available.

The PROFILER revolutionizes the typical workflow of a recording session. Guitarists can now move freely between projects - the PROFILEs of their guitar rigs allowing them to do overdubs or alternative takes whenever they like. You could rent a professional studio for a day or two to create the best PROFILEs of your amps, and then record in your project studio later - you'll have the exact sound of the professional studio, but with all the time in the world.

Playing live is where the PROFILER really comes into its own - just spend a little time making PROFILEs in the studio, and you can play live with the exact same sound that you used on your blockbuster hit, only without the need for multiple amp setups on stage. You will sound better than ever before through the PA. Since the sound of the cabinet you mic’ed in the studio is immortalized in the PROFILE, there is no need to mic a speaker cab on stage. In fact, you don't have to carry a cabinet up on stage at all! Monitor yourself via the common stage-monitor wedge and save a lot of backache and cargo costs.

Let's face it - rocking-out at home is difficult for most of us. Analog tube amps only start to sing at levels where the only neighbours who’ll enjoy your 10min rock’n’roll extravaganza will be the ones who live half-a-mile away! The PROFILER, however, sounds great at any level. Play it through your home stereo or through headphones. Use the dedicated ‘Space’ effect to make headphones a more pleasurable experience, and to reduce ear fatigue. Play along to your favourite music by connecting your MP3 player to the auxiliary in, and then mixing it with the amp signal.

The PROFILER offers a selection of some of the finest effects in the world. Nearly 20 years of experience allows Kemper to find the essence of both classic and new effects and equip them with well-conceived parameter sets. The signal-chain comprises 8 effect modules in addition to the amplifier stack. Up to four effects can be placed "pre" the amp stack, and another four "post" the amp. The final modules of the effect chain are ideal for delay and reverb effects. Both delay and reverb offer "spillover", meaning the sonic tail is not cut off when you change to another Rig. Pretty much every effect offers optional "ducking", allowing you to control the effect intensity just by the dynamics of your playing.

PROFILER OS 8.5 supports the new PROFILER Rig Editor for iPadOS which allows for wireless control of the PROFILER Stage, Head, and Rack. This adds another dimension of parameter editing and fine-tuning of guitar tone at home, in the studio, at rehearsal, and on stage. The PROFILER Head must be connected to a local network via a wired ethernet connection to use with Profiler Rig Editor.

Everybody knows that fine-tuning guitar tone works best when standing in the sweet spot of the speakers, where all the magic happens. Rig Manager for iPadOS provides exactly that, in a portable yet powerful editor solution. You can add, swap and modify effects using the intuitive graphical user interface. You only need one hand to optimise your PROFILER performance while the other one is holding that power chord. It was never easier to get your best tone out of your PROFILER.
