MONITOR OUTPUT (5)
Use these outputs to connect the PROFILER to a powered stage monitor for mono, or two powered stage monitors
for stereo. These outputs have their own level control and ground lift in the menu of the Output Section.
You can also connect this output to a power amp and regular guitar cabinets. In this case, you need to switch the
cabinet simulation off, using the soft button “Monitor Cab Off” in the Output Section, to prevent the unwanted
coloration that would result from running a speaker emulation through a guitar cabinet.
Bypassing the cabinet module can also be done by simply pressing the CABINET button. However, there are two
differences compared to enabling “Monitor Cab Off”:
• Bypassing cabinet is an individual setting to each Rig, unless you lock the cabinet module in its “off” state. Monitor
Cab. Off is a global setting.
• It will bypass the cabinet module for all outputs, whereas "Monitor Cab Off" will only affect the signal routed to the
MONITOR OUTPUT.
✓ The functions described in the above paragraphs are only the standard settings. You can change the signal sources
individually for each output in the Output Section; e.g. you can set the MAIN OUTPUT to only deliver the wet delay
and reverb signal, while one of the SEND outputs carries the pure amp sound without effects. There is also a tutorial
video specifically about the Output Section and setup for recording available on: www.kemper-amps.com/video
HEADPHONE Output (6)
