Should call this a "dummy" question. Just bought a Beheringer DR 400 reverb/delay. No instructions on how or where it hooks up. Could someone guide me in the right direction.
Thanks

Hi John, welcome to the world of Pedal Steel Guitar (PSG)!!! Use this forum as much as you can to ask questions (and there are no dumb ones) and get advice. This forum is invaluable to newbies. I am still a newbie as well.

To answer your question, I assume you have a pedal steel guitar?? although the this would apply to lap steel as well, assuming you have a pedal for it. the connections would be:
Guitar--->volume pedal--->reverb/delay unit--->amp

Looking at a picture of that particular unit online, it appears to have one input on the right side, and two outputs (A and B) on the left side, in your case you would use output A for mono. If you had two amps you could use A and B for a stereo effect.

You did not mention what sort of amp you have, some allow you to connect effects boxes via an effects out and effects return.

I would think there would have been a small and brief sheet of instructions which would also describe typical connection scenario.

By the way, here is a link to the Behringer site and specifically the user guide document: http://www.behringerdownload.de/DR400/IMPL%20Tech%20GLOB_P0534_M%20Web%20EN_2007-12-18_Rev.2.pdf

Although, it doesn't seem to have details on connections.

I hope that helped some??

-Chuck

I think there was some discussion about this unit on the Forum last year. It looks like it may be similar to the old Boss RV3 that had both reverb and delay. When they first came out, I don't believe they were being shipped to the U.S.
