How to Create Merged Profiles

If you are planning to take both a Direct Amp Profile and a Studio Profile of the same tube amplifier, for the pur-
pose of merging them later, we recommend the following sequence:
✔ ✔
Note: If you like, do the setup and cabling for both profiles. Position the microphones by the speaker as required.
However, you will not be able to take both profiles in one go, since the Profiler only supports one return signal for
profiling.
• Make all required adjustments to the amp while listening to it right in front of the cabinet. Don't worry about the
mic'ed sound at this stage, as the direct sound cannot be adjusted by anything other than the amplifier controls.
• Capture the Direct Amp Profile first, as described above, and save it.
• Do not touch the controls of the amp after capturing the Direct Amp Profile, as both Profiles, and thus the even-
tual Merged Profile, have to be based on the same original amp sound.
• Connect the microphone (instead of the DI box) to the RETURN of the Profiler. If you want to disengage the DI
box, and connect the cabinet directly, don't forget to first put your reference amp on standby.
• Prepare for the capture of the Studio Profile by adjusting the microphone positions. To optimize your mic'ed
sound, use either the 4-band EQ in Profiler Mode, or the equalizers on your mixing desk.
• Capture the Studio Profile.
Now, you can merge the Cabinet portion from the Studio Profile into the Direct Amp Profile. Here's the procedure
in detail:
• Select the Studio Profile in Browse Mode.
• Hold the CABINET button for at least one second until it's in focus.
• Press the COPY button on the Front Panel.
Press EXIT and select the respective Direct Amp Profile.
•
• Hold CABINET again until it's in focus.
• Press the PASTE button.
• "Merge cabinet" will appear under soft button 2. Push it!
• You can undo/redo the merging by pressing "Merge Cabinet" again, and compare results.
• Press EXIT and store your new Profile.
Done!
