Working with Amplifier PROFILEs, Cabinet PROFILEs, Power Amps and Guitar Cabinets 86
Direct Amp PROFILE, ready to be fed into a physical guitar cabinet. The original Direct Amp and Studio PROFILEs
are now fully contained in the Merged PROFILE, so feel free to delete them now, if you like.
A positive side-effect is that the Cabinet of the Merged PROFILE has become an “authentic” guitar cabinet,
comparable to one based on an imported impulse response. If you copy a “merged” Cabinet PROFILE such as this
into another Studio PROFILE later, it will not undergo the usual approximation of the CabDriver algorithm. Whereas
the “authenticity” of the cabinet will survive the copying process, the amp of the receiving Studio PROFILE cannot
gain “authenticity” this way. If, however, you copy an “authentic” cabinet into a Merged PROFILE both amp and
cabinet will be “authentic”.
✓ The soft button "Merge Cabinet" always appears if the cabinet of a Studio PROFILE is copied into a Direct Amp
PROFILE. It will not appear otherwise.
✓ When you have created both Direct Amp and a Studio PROFILEs of the same amp with settings unchanged, you
might find that the values for “Gain” and “Definition” differ a bit. Don't worry - this has no impact on the sound.
