Kemper Profiles specific for Pedal Steel Guitar

Joseph van der Eijk · Post by **Joseph van der Eijk** » 16 Aug 2023 11:36 am

I went through hundreds of profiles on my new Kemper and found only a few profiles suitable for my pedal steel guitar.
I know about the DB-PSG profiles that can be found and two dobro profiles.
I only want to buy a profile (pack) when I am sure it will work / sound well for pedal steel guitar.
I do not want to spend a lot a money and get stuck with hundreds of profiles that may be very suitable for guitar but a not great for pedal steel guitar.
Can everybody in this forum who uses a Kemper profiler and bought profiles or profile packs that sound great tell me what profiles they use and where they got them or bought them.
This would save me and a lot of other pedal steel guitar players a lot of time browsing through hundreds and thousends of profiles and get us fast up to speed using the Kemper.

ThanX in advanced.

Paul Franklin's method has a number of pedal steel profiles and I know they have been posted to the forum in the past. Do a search of the forum for Kemper Profiles. This has been discussed in the past and you might find your answer in the archives.

Try MIKE Holder. He is a forum member. He has many profiles to chose from.

Pm me your email address and I will send some of my complete steel rig profiles based on a Little Walter 50 amp. I use these every weekend and I think they sound killer.

My PSG profiles for the Kemper profiler. 4 of 5 are the same LW89 amp with various enhancements

1. Plate Reverb / Delay (ballad)
2. Reverb only (up tempo)
3. Franklin 90's live room verb
4. Modulations (Phaser, Leslie/B3, Chorus, Tremelo)
4. 1956 Fender Tweed Pro - overdriven for Lap Steel

I have no specific profiles yet other then the ones that where on my Kemper when I bought it, the profiles from the Paul Franklin course and some from the rig exchange.
Problem is: there are thousands of them mostly for guitar so it takes a few month to browse through them and test/listen to them eliminating the unusable for pedal steel guitar.
If I can find a fair base of profiles for pedal steel I can tweak them for my own use and wil gladly share them with other steel guitar players.
In the future I will try profiling my Katana 100/212 and Emmons Lashley 600.

Which section of the Paul Franklin course has the Kemper profiles? I've looked and haven't found any. In fact I haven't seen any mention of the Kemper in his courses. As I remember he does show his actual amp and fx settings. If he also has Kemper profiles I'd sure like to try them.

It is under the Gear and Guitars section

Thanks Bill. Guess I already have most of those.

In the Paul Franklin course search for Kemper.
