KEMPER today announces the immediate availability of the all-new KEMPER PROFILER MK 2 Series. KEMPER continues to raise the bar with the upcoming PROFILER MK 2 Series — a bold evolution of the PROFILER lineup (all PROFILERs: Head, Rack, Stage, the Player, and the powered versions), delivering more power, more flexibility, and more creative potential than ever before.

At the heart of the PROFILER MK 2 Series works an upgraded processing engine, unlocking faster performance, with boot times clocking in around 20 seconds, and a host of new features that expand the boundaries of what a modern guitar or bass rig can do.

A New Era of Effects: 20 Blocks in series, the most powerful effects architecture ever found in a KEMPER unit - The PROFILER MK 2 Series now offers seven additional effect blocks, raising the total number of simultaneous audio effect blocks to an incredible 20 — all running with zero added signal latency. It's like having an entire, fully integrated pedalboard with pedal essentials at your feet — but one that boots in seconds, never needs rewiring, and always remembers your settings.

A new Era of PROFILING: KEMPER announces a new PROFILING technology for the MK 2 series. Availabilty is expected during Summer. Currently in extended testing with some selected third-party PROFILE vendors the new PROFILING offers: 

• More than 100,000 individual frequency points meticulously analyzed for the most precise amp recreation ever achieved.
• Next-Level Speaker & Dynamically adjustable Cabinet Resonance – Capturing the true dynamics of your setup with the longest and most complex impulse responses in an amp capturing device.
• Liquid Profiling Technology – Seamlessly integrate the original amp's gain and tone controls, transforming a single profile into a fully dynamic, living amplifier.
• Unparalleled Precision & Feel – A cutting-edge hybrid approach combining precise, deterministic analog measurement with KEMPER's industry-leading profiling intelligence.

Overview - All that's new in the PROFILER MK 2

All-New FX Section – 7 Additional FX Slots - The PROFILER MK 2-Series introduces an expanded FX section with seven dedicated "pedalboard essential" FX slots, featuring: A new second Noise Gate (Palm Ninja), Compressor, Pure Booster, WahWah, Vintage Chorus, Air Chorus, and Double Tracker.

Adding these to the pre-existing 10 audio blocks, Spectral Noise Gate, Transpose Effect, and Volume Pedal - in total this provides users with 20 simultaneous audio effect blocks, setup gig-ready right out of the box while maintaining full flexibility for customization.

This new layout makes it convenient to cover all the bases and offers 8 flexible FX blocks available for the acclaimed tone shapers and studio-grade unique FX the KEMPER PROFILER is famous for.

Performance Meets Portability - With a smarter internal design and new lightweight aluminum components, the PROFILER Stage MK 2 has shed excess weight — making it even more gig-friendly without sacrificing the tank-like build quality musicians rely on. Whether for touring the world or heading to a local session, this is the most travel-ready full-featured PROFILER yet.

MK 2-ready Player! - For all guitarists and bassists already rocking the compact PROFILER Player, there is good news: it's been "MK 2"-ready from day one, meaning it's fully aligned with the power and potential of the new series, and now, on Level 1 already, it features 16 simultaneous FX in total. This new extended signal flow becomes available for all Player owners as a free update. And yes, it will get the advanced PROFILING, too! Making the PROFILER Player out of the box the features richest and most professional performance and recording solution - with its travel-friendly footprint and at its convenient price point!
