Kemper Profiler Player: Compact and Powerful Amp and Effects Solution for Guitarists

The Kemper Profiler Player revolutionizes the world of guitar tone, offering access to an extensive library of professional amp sounds and studio-quality effects in an ultra-compact design. Known for its industry-leading profiling technology, the Kemper Profiler Player allows guitarists to replicate high-quality amp tones with precision. Its small form factor—occupying the space of just two standard pedals—makes it the perfect choice for touring, travel, and studio sessions. Featuring the acclaimed Liquid Profiles, the Profiler Player offers a wide range of tonal versatility for home practice, rehearsals, or arena-level performances.

Powerful Sound Profiling in a Compact Format

The Kemper Profiler Player delivers the same amp section as its larger counterparts, allowing it to load any amp profile from Kemper’s extensive library of free and commercial profiles. With its advanced profiling technology, it replicates the true characteristics of tube amps, delivering high-quality sound on any stage. The Player’s compact size enables guitarists to incorporate it seamlessly into any pedalboard setup, effectively transforming their rig into a tour-ready, arena-capable setup. This device provides all the essential features needed to access Kemper’s signature amp sounds, selected FX, IR loading, and switching capabilities, making it a versatile choice for any performance setting.

Rig Manager App for Seamless Control and Access to Thousands of Rigs

The Rig Manager app offers unparalleled control over the Profiler Player, available across Mac, PC, iOS, and Android devices. Guitarists can access and manage over 20,000 user-generated rigs through the app, allowing for quick access to a vast array of sounds and configurations. The Rig Manager also provides advanced control and customization, making it easy to create, save, and organize rigs directly from a computer or mobile device. This feature ensures that users can manage and refine their sound library effortlessly, whether in the studio or on the road.

Seamless Tone Transition and Effects Spillover

The Kemper Profiler Player provides smooth transitions between rigs and FX settings, allowing for seamless blending and soft delay/reverb spillover. This unique feature eliminates the need for “scene handling,” providing a more natural and continuous experience when switching between presets. Additionally, the high-quality instrument input with a dynamic range of 127 dB is optimized for high-gain sounds, preserving every nuance and detail of the guitar tone, even with external distortion pedals and effects.

Advanced Connectivity and USB-MIDI Compatibility

The Kemper Profiler Player includes extensive connectivity options, including a grounded XLR output for direct connection to a front-of-house (FOH) mixer, two TS jacks for stereo sound in home studios or live setups, and full USB audio and MIDI functionality for integration with DAWs. The Player also supports Kemper Kone and Kemper Kabinet for full-range sound reproduction with the option to enable the “Imprint” mode, which recreates the authentic “cabinet-in-the-room” feel. Additionally, the Profiler Player offers USB support for footswitches, enabling remote control via a MIDI foot controller (not included) and allowing guitarists to tailor their setup to fit their unique performance style.

Versatile Control Options and Easy Data Management

The Profiler Player includes customizable footswitches, dual footswitch combinations, and dual expression pedal capabilities, allowing users to control their rigs with flexibility. Data can be easily backed up, restored, and updated via USB, making it simple to manage settings and ensure software is up-to-date. The USB port also serves as a convenient charging point for tablets or other devices during long sessions, adding to the Player’s practicality for extended performances.

Unique Features for Enhanced Performance

The Kemper Profiler Player is equipped with unique features like the patented “Pure Cabinet” function, which smooths out excessive high frequencies from mic’d cabinets, and a special “Space” effect on the headphone output for fatigue-free practice. The always-on tuner provides constant pitch monitoring, while the spectral noise gate effectively reduces hum from guitar pickups, keeping the signal clean and refined. With a powerful headphone output and high-quality audio components, the Profiler Player ensures a premium sound experience whether practicing, recording, or performing live.
