PURE CABINET

As mentioned in the previous chapter, mic'ed guitar cabinets often have an unpleasant, "phasey" sound in the high-
end frequencies – something you don't get if you listen to a guitar cabinet directly, without a microphone. PURE
CABINET™ will gently polish the sound of the virtual (mic'ed) guitar cabinet to bring it closer the sound of the direct
guitar cabinet. The fundamental character of the sound will still be maintained.
All applications that use the mic'ed sound (virtual guitar cabinet) of the PROFILER can benefit from PURE CABINET:
recordings, live venues, full-range monitors, in-ear monitors, or just noodling with headphones on. It adapts naturally
to the individual sound of each guitar cabinet - the more unbalanced the original guitar cabinet, the more impact it
will have. With amp sounds that are fully clean, PURE CABINET is hardly noticeable.
PURE CABINET is available as a global setting in the Output Section and affects all Rigs that you listen to. However,
the original sound of each Rig remains unchanged, and you can switch PURE CABINET on or off whenever you like.
There are two parameters for PURE CABINET in the Output Section, on the "Output AddOns" page: use the
corresponding soft knob to set the desired amount and use the corresponding button to do a quick A/B comparison
against the original cabinet sound. To completely disengage the global PURE CABINET, you must uncheck the
switch, as it still has an effect even when the controller is at zero.
If you would rather have individual settings of PURE CABINET per Rig or cabinet preset, there is a second
parameter in the cabinet module. There is no switch for the local parameter - it is disengaged by setting it to zero.
Both values of PURE CABINET interact such that the larger of the two values is always given priority and will be
applied as the actual intensity of the PURE CABINET effect.
