Product information "Kemper Profiling Amplifier BK + Profiler Remote"
With the Kemper Profiling Amplifier BK+ Profiler Remote the manufacturer now offers the popular profiling amp as a set including the remote unit. The Kemper Profiling Amplifier uses a modelling technique to analyse real amplifiers, speaker cabinets and effect pedals in a few steps and save them as playable presets. The Kemper profiling technology works with various measurement signals that are sent through the amplifier and then analysed in detail. The resulting basic sound can then be hand‑trimmed after a direct comparison before the preset is saved in the Kemper Profiling Amplifier. Furthermore, the Kemper Profiling Amplifier features a typical amplifier tone control with Bass, Mid, Treble and Presence, as well as extensive settings for the tube sound. High-quality analogue components, balanced outputs, a complete effects section and ground lift, plus intelligent archiving functions, enable versatile use of the revolutionary Kemper Profiling Amplifier in the studio, on stage or at home. The footswitch now included in the set allows versatile yet simple operation of the amplifier. This includes, among other things, controlling and managing the individual programmes. The Profiler Remote features a large illuminated display and a robust housing. Buttons provide direct access to 5 different programmes ("Rigs"). All performance programmes can be switched using a bank system. Special buttons allow the activation of the "Tuner", "Tap-Tempo" and the new exclusive looper effect. The controller requires no separate power supply and is simply connected via the supplied cable (7 m). Kemper Profiling Amplifier BK+ Profiler Remote:

The Kemper Profiler is the leading digital guitar amplifier and all-in-one effects processor.
Praised by guitarists around the world as a "game-changer", the Profiler is the first digital guitar amplifier to capture the true, full and dynamic sound of a guitar or bass amplifier. This is made possible by the radical and patented technological and conceptual approach Kemper calls "profiling".
For decades the electric guitarist has been effectively shackled to the tube amplifier as the only way to achieve that sound. That combination is undoubtedly glorious, but far from ideal. Achieving consistent results between the rehearsal room, the studio and the stage has been a major challenge for guitarists — as it has been since the early 1940s.
With the arrival of the Kemper Profiler everything changed. For the first time in history guitarists are free to create the most individual tones that reflect the essence of their playing style and to capture those exact sounds in the digital domain with Kemper's unique technology. The Kemper Profiler Stage in floorboard format makes the features even more stage-ready and is aimed specifically at touring live musicians.
If you feel you don't own first-class tube amplifiers worth profiling, no problem. There's actually no need to create your own profiles. The Profiler comes with hundreds of amps and rigs already installed. This initial selection of factory presets — created by pro musicians and engineers in top studios around the world — gives you access to some of the rarest and finest amps on the planet.
For use in the studio, on stage and at home.
The Profiler revolutionises the typical workflow of a recording session. By recording a mic'd-up guitar rig by professionals, guitarists can for the first time move freely between projects for overdubs and alternate takes and return to them at any time. Hire a professional studio for a day or two to create the best profiles of your amps.
With the exact same sound as on the recording and without the need for multiple amp setups on stage, it opens up a new world of possibilities. You will sound better through the PA than ever before.
It's not necessary to mix a speaker cabinet on stage because the cabinet recorded in the studio is immortalised in the profile. As a welcome consequence it's not necessary to carry a cabinet onto the stage. You can hear yourself through the regular stage monitor and save a lot of back pain and transport costs. Your bandmates and your sound engineer will love you for leaving that loud sound source at home.
