The best place to keep up to date on free and commercial rig offerings is the Kemper forum. Most Kemper users that post good profiles on the Rig Exchange will also create a thread about them in the Free Rigs and Profiles subforum to discuss the profiling setup in detail. Then there are some people that for one reason or another don't want to upload their rigs to the Rig Exchange but post Dropbox links in threads to rig packs. The Commercial Rigs and Profiles subforum is the prime place almost all vendors advertise their newest releases, as well as where consumers post reviews and discuss popular profile packs.
You can also quickly peruse new profiles on the Rig Exchange by using Rig Manager. Just sort by date.
Kemper Amp Profile List - This is a list of amps and popular profiles of said amps.
Some profile authors did not want to upload their profiles to the Rig Exchange, so I hosted them on their behalf.
The number of HAWP sessions is quite large and can be confusing what the differences are between them. Where should you start? Note that the HAWP sessions were an attempt at a community-feedback project to find the absolute best settings/profiles of a particular amp. Many sessions are "tests" to compare some suggested change from a prior session, or to isolate changes in individual switches or parameters. Here's a breakdown of the sessions:
| # | BMTP | Gn/Mv | Channel | Voice | Fat | C-45 | Sat | FW | Cab | Speaker | Mic | DA | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
