Granted, it was brief, but once demoing a Kemper I didn’t find any of the presets making me think much of it.
Probably 'cause the factory set was installed.
It's passable, but nobody I know uses it 'cause it pales when compared to most of the commercial and even some of the free Rig Exchange offerings.

Plus you’re not going to get the same effect of volume roll off etc as it’s not modeling anything about the amp circuit but just a snapshot of a single setting.
Oh, but you do.
Whatever gain setting you have on an amp when it's Profiled, the Kemper captures the behaviour from zero gain right up to and including that point. It's only if you dial in
more gain than the Profile contains accurate data for that you get into "extrapolative" territory. Said territory is universally avoided by Kemperites 'though 'cause all manner of gain settings are used to create packs and for the 14000 freebies on the Rig Exchange.
Just "correcting" a couple o' common misconceptions, mate.
Also, I would say that countless folks have said that all the PooToob clips in the world couldn't have prepared them for the authenticity of feel and response they experienced when they first plugged into their newly-acquired Kempers. I see it practically every day.
