Set everything flat on the ToneMatch mixer and control the guitar sound on the Profiler. If necessary, use the [[zEQ]] or [[ParaEQ]] to solve acoustic issues at the venue. That is: Use the Profiler to create your guitar sound. If necessary, use the zEQ and ParaEQ on the ToneMatch to deal with the environment. That way, when you move to a different environment, you don't have to make changes to the Profiler.
==== Connections ====
Connect the Profiler Main Output to the ToneMatch mixer (since the ToneMatch mixer is the input to the FOH (Front of House)).
<section begin=MainOut />
* XLR connection. This is a balanced connection and it is preferable
* {{1/4 TS}} (Ordinary guitar cable). Avoid using this connection when you have cable runs in excess of 20 feet (six meters).<br>There is no advantage to using a {{1/4 TRS}} cable because the 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) Profiler outputs are unbalanced.
;Profiler Main Outputs:These are your main stereo outputs. Use these outputs to connect to a mixing desk in a recording studio, or to the front-of-house mixer in a live situation. These outputs deliver the entire Rig: amp, cabinet, and all effects. You have a choice of XLR (balanced) or quarter-inch TS-jacks (unbalanced). The XLR outputs are protected against 48V phantom power fed by a mixing desk. However, you should avoid feeding phantom power into the PROFILER if you want the best audio quality. Like all inputs and outputs, it offers a ground lift to prevent a loop hum.

===== ToneMatch Mixer Aux Inputs =====
If you are short of channels you can use
1/4 (6.3 mm) Tip-Sleeve cable to the ToneMatch mixer Aux inputs.
* T1  input 4 and 5
* T4S inputs 5 and 6 (See: [[T4S Aux Inputs]])
* T8S inputs 9 and 10 (See: [[T8S Aux Inputs]])
==== Settings ====
In the Profile Output section, page 1, Set Main Output to Master Mono (or Master Stereo if you are running two L1 systems).
On the ToneMatch mixer, on the channel to which you have attached the Profiler
;ToneMatch Preset
:Category: Electric Guitars
:Preset: Flat E. Guitar ZEQ or General Processor [try both]
;ZEQ:  Lo, Mid, Hi set to 0 (I use this for quick changes to compensate for room acoustics)
;ParaEQ: All bypassed
;Comp/Gate: Bypassed
;Mod: Bypassed
;Delay: Bypassed

You can connect the Profile Main Output to the L1 Pro Input 3.
{{#lst:{{PAGENAME}}|MainOut}}
==== L1 Model 1S/L1 Model II ====
{{Model II icon}}{{Model 1S icon}}
Connect the Profiler Main Output to the Analog Input on the Power Stand.
Set the Analog Input Trim so you get a solid green light. If you see solid red, turn down the Trim
==== L1 Compact ====
{{Compact icon}}Connect the Profiler Main Output to Channel 2. Set the ToneMatch switch to Line Level (Down).
==== S1 Pro ====
{{S1 Pro icon}}Connect the Profiler Main Output to Channel 1 or 2.

While you navigate within a Performance using front panel controls or Rig Manager Editor, the edits of all five Slots are maintained. And if you store the Performance all five Slots are included in their current edited state.
If you navigate within a Performance using foot buttons (Rig Buttons of Remote/Stage) or MIDI, the edits get withdrawn as soon as you load another Slot. If you store now, only the edits of the current Slot survive, the other four Slots 4 stay as these were stored before.
