I thought Nashville was the roughest, but I know I’ve said the same about them all.

Thanks Mark; there’s a word document attached to the profiles, if it has a 12 it’s an Eminence PF-350 speaker in a Little Walter cabinet, it it has a 15 it’s an Eminence PF-400 speaker in a Little Walter cabinet. BW is a Black Widow which you’ll notice the Webb profile has etc. LW refers to Little Walter PF89 head. Hope this helps!

Many thanks, Mike. I have been happily using Mr Britt's assorted Fenders that came with the unit but these really expand the palette. Beautiful stuff!!

Hey Mike,
Thanks for the profiles.
Just curious what pickups you used to make the profiles. I find that the profiles react differently to the different picks of the guitars I have.

I used a Franklin D-10 with Bill Lawrence 710 pickups making these profiles. Every guitar responds differently but you can tweak the input or output on the Kemper to control the sensitivity, hope you find something that’s usable for you.

Looking a getting into one of these. I would be curious to hear sound sample of these profile you have made. I hear lots 6 string stuff but nothing on YouTube for steel.

I don’t have a YouTube channel so I can’t demonstrate any sounds for you, perhaps someone else on here can be helpful. I will say if you’ve heard guitar profiles and liked them, the pedal steel profiles are just as good. If you have a guitar player friend who owns one, ask them to download these sounds and let you try them with your steel.

Do you have to have a guitar hooked up to profile an amp? I thought you wanted the pure amp profile with guitar attached.

Thank you

Hi Danny; They were deleted because another member was offering profiles but didn’t have the courtesy to start their own thread, all inquiries on mine were for their sounds so I had them separated by a moderator and removed mine for a while. The plan is to offer them up again after the dust has settled with some other additions. The profiles I originally offered are still available on Modern Music Masters Paul Franklin course as a courtesy to subscribers. Thanks for your interest.

Ok. As I mentioned I’m a former Kemper owner and ordering the new player tomorrow. I haven’t checked yet, but if I remember, there’s a Rig Exchange on the Kemper site, if I’m remembering that correctly. Are they on there?

Thanks again,
Danny
