If one of the three headphone wires has a loose contact - I guess it's ground - it is possible, that the mono portion of the signal - which is the same between left and right side - is cancelled out and just the wet portion, which is different on left and right side, survives. We had that scenario once. Just a defective headphone cable.

If you are monitoring via balanced XLR cables, and the cable on one side has its hot wires crossed, and you mix both in a mixing desk, you could have a similar cancellation effect.

Both issues outside of the PROFILER.

Since 5.7 the function is named "Factory Presets" and imports all presets, but nothing else.

Ob Du "Import" drückst oder "Restore", wo ist da das Problem?

Wenn Du eine Performance importieren könntest, wüsstest du nichts über das Output Routing und die Output Levels des anderen Profilers

oder

wie dort die Expression Pedale konfiguriert sind

oder

ob die Rig Taster an der Remote bei erneutem Treten morphen oder den Slot erneut laden

oder

ob vielleicht irgendein Modul gelockt ist und alle Sounds in deiner Performance überlagert

usw..

Der Hinweis von Ingolf ist zielführend und ein Backup zurückspielen ist "simpelst".

That is true. And that is how it works here. The Mix of the new reverb types behaves like for any other reverb type. Perhaps you have activated Parallel Path!?

In order to judge the authenticity of the PROFILER, take a profile of an amp - perhaps one you like -, and then compare in a true A to B comparison.

When you play a Merged Profile through a physical guitar cab, you hear the Direct Amp Profile, which is the authentic simulation of the original amp. If you think it sounds "nasal" then the original amp sounded "nasal", which you can only judge if you were present at the PROFILING event.

When you play a Studio Profile through a physical guitar cab, you hear an approximation of the amp. If you like this better, we take this as a compliment. The fact, that the Direct Amp Profile sounds more authentically doesn't mean that you have to like it better.

Please consider to consult the manual for such topics. The Main Manual includes a chapter dedicated to the effect loops, which explains Loop Distortion and what makes it special.

Rig Manager saw the update on my iMac but said it had errors (twice) after downloading it and trying to install. Im now trying to install it manually by transferring the .bin file to my usb-stick. So far it seems to be installing ok this way- It booted ok. FYI.

The update via Rig Manager had been tested and many users have performed it successfully since 6.0 is public.

can we have the new reverb presets without having to install factory rigs like we did in the last reverb update ..I don't really want to have to re-install all the other unused ( in my case ) factory presets ...? or am I missing something ?

Simply press "Factory Presets" in System Settings after the upgrade to 6.0. This function just imports presets - no Rigs - effectively already since 5.7.

Check it out. OS 6.0 is public. Details related to Formant Reverb and Ionosphere Reverb are described in Addendum 6.0.

While the preparation of the new effect selection screen, other features, and numerous fixes are progressing and right on track, we want to take the opportunity to publish two additional sophisticated reverb effect types asap: Formant Reverb and Ionosphere Reverb. Details are explained in Addendum 6.0. There are also 30 additional presets available based on these two new reverb types, which can be imported pressing "Factory Presets" in System Settings after the upgrade.

We have decided to call this new revision "6.0" and the next revision including all other enhancements "7.0". We don't expect this interim step to cause any delays regarding the release of 7.0.

Man kann Performances nur via Rig Manager exportieren oder importieren. Sorry, das ist ein Fehler im Handbuch, der in der nächsten Version korrigiert ist. Beim Importieren wüßte der PROFILER nicht, an welche Stelle er die zu importierende Performance packen soll. Es könnte eine andere Performance überschrieben werden. Im Gegensatz zu Rigs und Presets haben Performances ja ihre festen Plätze. Deshalb funktioniert das nur via Rig Manager, wo man die Performance gezielt an einen der 125 Plätze im PROFILER schieben kann.

In diesem Fall ist aber ohnehin ein kompletter Backup/Restore zielführender, wie Ingolf schon bemerkt hat.

The Main Manual includes a chapter "MIDI", which explains how to load Rigs in Browser Mode via MIDI program changes and Slots In Performance Mode via bank select LSB and program changes.

+58% is not the default. The value of "DLY+REV Routing" in Rig Settings equals the setting of its predecessor "Del+Rev Balance" in the reverb menu avoiding any related sound changes. If all your Rigs include this value now, it means, it has been this way in the past.

Have you tried the following Factory Rigs

RB - Bogus Supersonic

TAF - Bogus Supersonic 4

?

We suspect you hear the guitar directly - not via the PROFILER - and that original signal gets mixed with the transposed signal of the PROFILER - not in the PROFILER but in your ears. That even happens with headphones. You would not be the first experiencing that phenomenon. The unamplified strings of your guitar are quite loud. That's why we asked you to record the PROFILER signal and just listen to the recording. You could also monitor the PROFILER signal, while somebody else is playing guitar in the neighbor room with door closed.

Check all three Aux In Mix parameters and try to dial even below 0. There could be a rounding issue. Perhaps it is 0.06 and shows 0. It really has to be at the absolute minimum.

The point is, if you tweaked it as you mentioned at the beginning, it is not the preset anymore.

An effect preset is an effect type with specific settings with a given name like "Ping Pong". If you tweak the settings, all your current state has in common with the preset "Ping Pong" is the effect type displayed on the left. In fact your current settings could now be closer to another preset or even identical to another preset. Settings in various presets could be very different, or very similar, or even identical. So a statement like "currently using preset Ping Pong with tweaks" would not be logically correct.

No, not yet. That enhancement is on our list.

Do you own a powered PROFILER? In case yes, what if you deactivate the internal power amp?

Please explain, which output sources you have tested. Just "off"?

Have you activated "Monitor Stereo"? And is anything connected to the Direct Output?
