Sorry maybe this isn't a LR specific question but right now the tool I use is LR. Basically soft proofing in LR have two clipping modes, one for the monitor and one for the printer (+paper).
I understand the printer mode, basically if there is a color my printer can't print, I either have to accept to take the risk and see what comes out or I have the ability to change the HSL selectively until it falls within gamut. Seems fairly straight forward.
What I'm confused about is the monitor clipping. From what I understand, LR works in prophoto rgb. So as I'm editing the photo, chances are some colors will fall out of my monitor gamut. I can't see it, so how do I edit it? I have a sRGB monitor. In that case, what is the best strategy to take? Do I take the gamble again for prints? Because if I almost always adjust colors back to my monitor's gamut, then I might as well work in sRGB in LR no?
Just trying to understand the correct workflow, I have a sRGB monitor and an Epson R3880 which have a much larger gamut.
