Kemper Profiler Guitar Profiling Head

The KEMPER PROFILER™ has shattered the decades-old limitations that bound guitarists to traditional tube amplifiers, introducing revolutionary “PROFILING™” technology that captures the complete sonic DNA of any guitar or bass amp. This patented digital innovation finally solves the age-old challenge of achieving consistent tone from practice room to studio to stage – a problem that has frustrated musicians since the 1940s. The PROFILER HEAD combines classic aesthetics with modern practicality, sitting perfectly atop a 4x12 cabinet while remaining compact and lightweight enough for airline carry-on luggage.

Beyond simply replicating your original amplifier, the PROFILER opens up unprecedented creative possibilities. Fine-tune gain controls and equalisers to match your guitar perfectly, add power sagging to distortion, adjust pick attack dynamics without compression, and even swap cabinet simulations after recording. This flexibility revolutionises studio workflow – create professional PROFILEs during a short studio rental, then complete your recordings at home with identical sound quality and unlimited time for overdubs and alternative takes.

Live performance becomes remarkably streamlined with the PROFILER’s stage-ready capabilities. Recreate your exact studio sound without hauling multiple amp setups, and eliminate the need for stage cabinets entirely since the miked cabinet sound is preserved within each PROFILE. Home practice finally becomes enjoyable at neighbour-friendly volumes, with dedicated headphone optimisation and auxiliary input for playing along to backing tracks. The comprehensive effects suite includes 8 modules with pre and post-amp placement options, featuring spillover functionality for delays and reverbs, plus dynamic ducking control.

The latest PROFILER OS 8.5 introduces wireless control via the new Rig Editor for iPadOS, compatible with PROFILER Stage, Head, and Rack models through ethernet connectivity. This portable editor solution allows real-time parameter adjustment from the speaker’s sweet spot, with intuitive graphical interface for adding, swapping and modifying effects using just one hand while maintaining your playing position.
