Difference between Transmit profiles and Microphone profiles?

in SmartSDR for Windows

Hopefully I knew this years ago when I first started with Flex software, if I did .. I have now forgotten.

Let's assume I rarely use a microphone and stick mostly to CW and digital modes. . Lets also assume that previously working settings suddenly do not work and no transmit of RF is taking place when I attempt a transmit via a digital mode (Level shows info, RF meter does not ). To solve this issue I find my self poking around my saved profiles until I find one that magically produces RF with digital modes. I eventually get things to work as desired. The problem is that I find myself poking around in both the list of saved Mic profiles AND the Transmit profiles . I understand the need for these two types of profiles (in terms of cut-off settings and things like gain settings ) . However , when poking around aimlessly, I sometimes find a Mic profile that solves the problem and sometimes a Transmit profile that fixes things . Should I be ignoring Mic profiles for digital modes (in DigU) and focus only on the transmit profiles ?

    Andy,

    The SmartSDR-Software Users Guide section 20 includes tables of what is saved in the Global, Mic and Transmit profiles. In addition, section 18.7 contains a list of what is persisted separately from the profiles. I have referred to these lists frequently.

    Thanks Mike, I did read the user guide earlier today but still had the question after reading it . I think I have it now , after reading again.
