How to load presets on the Kemper Profiler

Back up first, then load your SoundShop presets on the Kemper Profiler with the steps below.

This guide has 4 steps, start to finish. A printable PDF of it is also in every pack download.

The steps

1. Get Rig Manager and update

Rig Manager is Kemper's free editor for Mac and Windows. Download it below, connect your Profiler's USB type B port to your computer and open Rig Manager. If it offers a Profiler update, make the backup in step 2 first, then accept it.

2. Back up your Profiler

Kemper's full backup is made on a USB stick, not in Rig Manager. Plug a stick into the Profiler's USB type A port and wait for USB Stick to show on screen. In Browse Mode, press USB Stick, choose Backup/Restore, then Backup. Profiler Player: plug the stick in while it is running, then power it off and back on while holding BANK.

3. Load your rigs

Unzip your download first. In Rig Manager, click Local Library in the Locations list on the left. Drag the rig files from the Presets folder into the list. Then select them and drag onto MyProfiler to store them on your amp. Skip any __MACOSX folder and files starting with ._ (Mac leftovers, not rigs).

4. Test out your new rigs

You are good to go! Pick a rig and play through the sounds. If you share a clip, tag the artist so they can hear how you are using their rigs.

Questions

No computer nearby?

On a Head, Rack or Stage, copy the rigs into the Shared folder on your USB stick, plug it in, and press USB Stick to import them.
