Guitar Tones Built From Amps, Cabinets and Microphones

The core of the pack is 23 distorted guitar profiles covering rock and metal styles. Wojtek Wieslawski, who created the profiles at Hertz Studio, says each sound was made by combining a range of amps, cabinets and microphones, or by using one of these elements alone.

The developer also states that the guitar profiles are meant to be used without additional EQ or compression during the mix. That makes the pack a starting point for producers who want the tone to sit correctly in a track straight from the Kemper.

The set also includes one bass crunch profile, which can cover lower-gain bass parts alongside the guitars.

Who the Pack Is For and How It Is Used

Hertz Instruments positions the pack for heavy metal producers working in the studio and for musicians playing live. Because the sounds are described as ready for both mix and stage, the same profiles can move from a session to a gig without rebuilding the tone.

The pack requires a physical Kemper Profiler to run, so it is a fit for players who already own that hardware and want additional distorted profiles for rock and metal work.
