Output Section 107
If you want to establish stereo monitoring with any of the other PROFILER variants, you select the option “Monitor
Stereo”, MONITOR OUTPUT and DIRECT OUTPUT become one logical pair of stereo outputs. Functions like
Monitor Output Source, Monitor Output Volume, Monitor Volume Pedal, Monitor Output Link, Monitor Cab. Off,
Monitor Output EQ and, Aux In > Monitor will be automatically applied to both.
Output Equalizers
Both, MAIN OUTPUT and MONITOR OUTPUT have dedicated 4-band equalizers. You can apply these globally to
adapt your sound to different speaker types and environments, without affecting the sound of any Rigs.
The Main Output EQ affects the HEADPHONE output and the S/PDIF OUTPUT, too. The equalizers take effect
regardless of the selected Output Sources, except for “Git+Processing” and “Git Studio”.
Space
The “Space” parameter adds a small room simulation to the master signal. This makes listening through headphones
far more enjoyable.
A brief explanation: whenever you listen to a sound coming from loudspeakers, you are also hearing the reflections
from the floor, the walls and objects around you. Even when you listen to a mono signal, these additional reflections
will still result in a stereo image once they reach your ears. There is only one common situation where no natural
reflections happen, and that is when you listen through headphones; as your ears are, biologically speaking, not
suited to this, it can quickly lead to listener fatigue. This effect is called “in-the-head localization” and becomes
particularly noticeable when you listen to a mono signal.
By using the Space effect, you can add virtual reflections, to create a sense of room and natural space. A mono
signal will be converted to a subtle stereo image, which should be far more pleasing to your ears. Even though this
effect is designed for headphones, you may also find it appropriate for listening through regular speakers, or for
