I have a DPC 1000, Profex2 and a Korg DTR 1.
What is the best way to hook them up for stereo play? What hooks where ?

There should be an input unto the Profex II for your guitar and I believe the Profex II is a stereo unit so run two output cords into the DPC 1000. I'm sure the DPC 100 is a two channel amp. What is the Korg DTR 1?

Thanks Erv,
The DTR IOOO is a rack Tuner. Can you hook it in line or do you have to plug to it everytrime. I just don't want to burn up anything. New to new stuff. Whatever happened to Volume,bass and treble?
Thank you again
Ed

I don't like to leave a tuner inline. I connect the output of my volume pedal to an A/B switch to switch my guitar from tuner to effects unit. The switch is mounted in my rack cabinet which houses the tuner and effects unit. The rack sits on the floor on my right side, for easy access.
There is a picture of my equipment on my website.

Doc, I run a similar setup and hooked up the DTR1000 to the "effects out" on the Profex.
Here's how to set it up !!!!

Take a patch that you don't use, or want, and go into edit mode and remove everything from the patch. Now bring up the "FX" parameter.
Go into edit mode and set the Send level=100, Direct level=0, Return level=0, Summed return=off. Name this patch "Tuner" or something similar.
Store and save.
Now patch from the effects loop send jack on the back of the Profex II (I don't think it matters which one, but I used the left),
straight to the input of your DTR1000 (the one in the back of it) --- no need to setup a return.

Now you can tune your guitar with the amp muted using this patch.
I have mapped it so that it is sitting right next to my most commonly used patches, and when I need to tune I just scroll to
the "Tuner" patch which automatically mutes the amp --- you can tune in silence which is great for loud environments.
Once your done tuning, just scroll back to your playing patch and your away.

Hope this helps -- Paddy
