Kemper vs Plugins Comparison!

[nigelpkay]

Plugin sounded way better here. But Kemper.... It's all about the profile. Out of 5000 you might like only 5. The best are the ones you do yourself because it's your own tone and rig.
And I think working with plugins you are doing that, shaping your own tone.

The second sim sounded better, thicker and less reverb (which made it have more punch).

I guess I'm in the minority here.

 

[Dimebag11]

No reverb on either btw.

Second one cuts better.

Not to Soundcloud-stalk, but is the EVH clip
amp, KPA, or plugin?

 

[Dimebag11]

KPA. Same profiles, just comparing a 25th to an EVH there.

It's all finger tone anyways...

Hmmm well...I can't guess which is which since I am late.

But even before I knew the answer I thought clip #2 sounded alot better.

With that being said I feel the 2 clips were polar opposites.

Clip #1 was too bright and harsh gain and Clip #2 sounded too dark and a bit muffled.

I would be curious to hear you throw some eq on both of these and come back.

Clip #1 I would put a hard LPF and Clip #2 bump around the 6k mark.

Try to get them sounded the same with eq and hear the difference would be cool.

But either way, I liked #2 better as is.
