Indledning
The Behringer DD400 is a versatile digital delay and echo effects pedal designed for guitarists and other musicians. It offers a wide range of delay effects, from subtle echoes to long, atmospheric repeats, enhancing your sound with depth and dimension. This manual provides essential information for setting up, operating, and maintaining your DD400 pedal.
Understanding Delay
Delay is an audio effect that creates an echo by repeating a sound after a short period. Each repeated sound typically becomes quieter than the previous one, gradually fading out. The Behringer DD400 allows you to control various parameters of this echo, including the delay time, the number of repeats (feedback), and the mix level of the effect.
