== Profile Types ==
Here's a list of the different kinds of profiles you create:
* '''Studio''' - a set of amp and cab profiles created using the traditional profiling process
* '''Direct Amp''' (often called a '''DI Profile''') - an amp profile created by taking the feed from a DI box connected to the speaker output of an amp (with the speaker cab or a load box connected after the DI box) - this process does not create a corresponding cab profile
* '''Merged''' - a set of amp and cab profiles resulting from merging the cab profile of a Studio profile with a Direct Amp profile. This kind of profile faithfully recreates the sound of the amp attached to the profiled cab while the Cab block is disabled, allowing dual output for live situations
* '''Direct Output''' or '''Preamp Profile''' - can be a set of amp and cab profiles or just an amp profile after FW 3.0. This is a profile of an amp pre-amp, returning the output of the pre-amp (often the effects loop send) to the KPA.
Studio and Merged profiles contain both amp and cab profiles, while Direct Amp and Direct Output/Preamp profiles only have an amp profile.
The only difference in the profiling process is selecting No Cab on the first page of the profiling dialog. The rest of the difference depends on what the real rig consists of. Merged profiles additionally are put through the merging process.
