Showcases unprecedented dynamic range, precise control, and user-friendly design, the Profiler Mk2 series from Kemper delivers the most sophisticated and innovative amplifier platform available.
The Kemper Profiler MK 2 series has been unveiled, marking a substantial enhancement to the company's previously released line of guitar amplifiers. The new series boasts a more powerful processing engine, additional effects blocks, and improved looper recording capabilities.
Speaking about the MK 2, Kemper's CEO, Christoph Kemper, described it as a platform that adapts and grows with its users. He highlighted the inclusion of essential effects, improved playability, and full USB audio integration as key features.
Upgrades have been implemented across the entire range of products, namely the Head, Rack, Stage, and Player. These changes are evident in faster boot times, enhanced functionality, and, in some cases, hardware revisions. Despite the changes, the updates are subtler, with Kemper opting for refined aesthetics and slimmer hardware profiles to maintain the original feel.
Perhaps the most exciting development for many users is the addition of seven extra effects blocks. This increment brings the total to 20 effects blocks that can be run simultaneously without latency when switching presets. Furthermore, the new series promises an intuitive user experience, akin to having a complete, integrated pedalboard at your feet.
According to Kemper, the MK 2 profilers deliver unparalleled precision and feel due to an innovative profiling approach that merges deterministic analog measurements with digital profiling intelligence. This strategy enables the Profiler MK 2 to analyze over 100,000 frequency points when creating captures for digital reproductions of popular guitar amps.
As the competition in the world of guitar technology is fierce, it remains to be seen how the second-generation units will fare against established competitors such as Neural DSP and Line 6.
The MK 2 series arrives in various bundles for customizing digital rigs. Prices range from £920/$1,348 for the Head alone to £1,190/$1,798 for the Power versions of the Rack and Head. For detailed information, visit Kemper’s official website.
