The Kemper Profiling Amp comes equipped with lots of effects models, covering basically [[Types of Effects|all the normal types of effects]] used for guitar and bass. Its design philosophy is not to provide lots of variations of each type or software models of real-world popular/classic effect models, but to provide one or a few highly-configurable models of each effect type, allowing a wide variety of sounds from each one, including emulating real world gear. There are a few exceptions to this general principle due to impossibilities in making them configurable such as distortions, shapers, and reverbs, as well as making the user interfaces less overwhelming in the cases of the wahs and delays.
My goal for this page is ''not'' to walk through every effect in the unit, or describe how to get particular sounds based on artists or real-world gear - ''[http://www.wikpa.org/Effects WiKPA.org] already does a great job of that''. I'm also assuming you already know about [[Contents#Effects|how typical guitar effects work and sound]] and how to tweak them, as well as [[Kemper KPA Basic Controls|how to place effects in the KPA's signal chain]]. What I'm covering are specific quirks in some effects, clarifications for things that might not be intuitive, and exposes for nifty features that aren't readily apparent.
