Amp matching, that's what Kemper does, uh?

Very interesting.

And a lot cheaper!

Though at this point, I'm wondering if there's anything more than EQ matching to it - which could be accomplished w/ Ozone and many other pieces of software. The funny thing is that, just last night, I was thinking of trying to match an amp with its software counterpart using Match EQ...

It is a different process to the Kemper but it looks like it has potential. You can create some unique tones.

I know a lot of people over at www.thegearpage.net have been waiting for this. One thing that leaps out at me... there doesn't seem to be a way to load 3rd party IRs and there are only two mic choices. Still I've only read great things about the ipad version. The gap between "real" amps and software continues to narrow.

Looks very interesting.  I'm with clintmartin, the virtual/real gap seems to get a little narrower every day. 

Oh I agree. :)
 
 
My POD HD gets a lot of love - and so does my Spider IV. And I'd buy an Axe FX II in a blink if I could. 

Very cool video review from Pro Tools Expert:

Is it just me, or does this thing sound better than any other amp sim plugin out there?  Never mind the amp-matching features -- just as an amp sim, it's not only the most tweakable plugin I've ever tried, but the sounds I'm getting are at least as good as anything else IME, both for guitars and bass.  Definitely worth an extensive demo, I'd say.

I haven't checked it out yet. I am not anxious to go back to software amp sims, tbh. But if you ay so, I guess I'll have to investigate for myself...
