Sounds good, reliable, borderline indestructible. It's a classic for a reason.

It's sturdy and reliable. Really love that it's POE and doesn't require another power supply. This is perfect for most of my uses: song by song, section by section, set up in advance. That being said, when I play more jam-based or huge sets with a lot of covers, it's not as great. Not a good replacement for typical pedal board functionality, but excellent if you plan to program each song in the Kemper.
If I were to do it again, I'd get an RJM controller.
Rock solid which is what I care about the most for gigging. Perfectly for Wah emulation in the Kemper, the only annoyance is the throw of the pedal is quite short for other uses. Effective for a Wah, ineffective for Volume functionality.
Temple Boards aren't everyone's cup of tea, but they're mine.
I'm a big fan of the plate/module system. It's durable, stable, and makes life really easy when using multiple pedal boards. I have the Duo 17 and the Duo 34, both are great. I wish they'd make a rack drawer!
Only complaint is the side modules are quite expensive. That said, they'll last forever.
It's terrific, but DO NOT use the quarter wave antenna it comes with. Spend the extra $35 and get a Shure Half-Wave, that'll be well worth the extra cash.
It's great, sounds great, simple to gig with.... once it's set up. The software is much better now than it's ever been, doing much on the Profiler itself is a total pain. If you have the computer handy it's not difficult to make changes, but if you need to switch something at a gig on the fly it's a challenge.
The other issue I have is it takes a full 60 seconds to start up (counting the Kemper remote waking up). I haven't had an issue yet... but if I needed to restart on the fly that would be a very long wait.
Jumped from a cheap power supply I bought in high school that was neither isolated nor grounded. This cured so many problems immediately. It's reliable and story.
Only thing to note before buying is it's huge. It's an actual brick. Break out a tape measure and make sure it'll fit where you want it before buying.
I have nothing but praise for this little box, I have two.
The software is simple and easy to use, and allows so much more control, that's easier to manage. Setting this exactly how I wanted with a variety of parameters took no time at all, and upon integrating it in to my system it worked flawlessly the first time, and hasn't missed a command since. No notes, it was the perfect solution for my rig.
The only tricky thing I had with this was using it with my Kemper. This trouble was all on the Kemper side of things. The Kemper midi is a little fickle to get working right, but once I figured out how best to set that up the whole process became simple and streamlined.
It'll destroy the top end of your tone. I get it, pitch shifting in real time is tricky.
I use this because it has less latency than the pitch shifter built in to the Kemper. It's not great, it's fine. Really nice for rehearsal, but I'll always take an alternate guitar on stage.
As the rhythm guitarist in a band completely on IEMs and modelers with no cabs on stage, this is an excellent solution for that little bit of added character to a song. That being said, it's not the same as actual feedback.
It takes a little bit to get the hang of, if you release a note in specific ways the feedback will try and follow you occasionally giving a swoop up when you're not playing. A little bit of know-how and practice solves this. It has it's quirks, but it serves a purpose and does the job fairly well in my rig.
This is terrific. It can be used as a clean boost, but I've instead opted to fatten up my cleaner parts. Especially when playing one note at a time picked riffs on clean settings it adds a lot of color and character. Might not be great for some, perfect for me.
This is a clone of the Boss FA-1 that The Edge of U2 used. I play a lot of U2 covers so this slotted in to the rig perfectly. Couldn't be more happy with it.
