SUPER OCTAVER SO400
Ultimate Octaver Eects Pedal
Thank you for showing your condence in us by purchasing the BEHRINGER SUPER OCTAVER SO400. This is
the ultimate octaver with polyphonic input and the capability of creating octaves 1 and 2 octaves below the
original tone. Take o with ultra-stable octaver sounds plus an aggressive Drive mode for fat overdrive sounds.
1. Controls
(1) The MODE switch selects one of the
following operation modes:
POLY: Single octave sound
which allows to play treble tones
without eect over bass tones with
octave eect.
OCT 2: Heavy octave sound, adds a
second octave to the rst one.
DRIVE: Adds an overdrive eect to
the original and the octaved signal.
(2) The DIRECT control adjusts the
level of the original input signal
(and the DIR OUT connector).
In DRIVE mode it adjusts total volume.
(3) The OCT 1 control adjusts the level
of the generated signal one octave
below the original signal.
(4) The function of this knob depends on
the position of the MODE switch (1):
POLY>RANGE: Denes the frequency range in which the input signal triggers the octave eect.
OCT 2>OCT 2: Controls the volume of the second octave.
DRIVE>DRIVE: Controls the depth of the overdrive eect.
(5) The blue ON/BATT LED illuminates when the eect is activated. It also serves as a battery level indicator.
(6) Use the footswitch to activate/deactivate the eect.
(7) The ¼" TS connector (GTR IN) is optimized for guitars. Use connector BASS IN (9) for optimized
bass guitar performance.
(8) The ¼" TS connector (OUT A) connects to your amp.
(9) The ¼" TS connector (BASS IN) is optimized for bass guitars. Use connector GTR IN (7) for
optimized guitar performance.
(10) The ¼" TS connector (DIR OUT) passes the unaected input signal through, as long as the eect
is inactive. Thus OUT A is muted. When the eect is active, the eects signal is sent through OUT A
while the DIR OUT carries the input signal. The volume of the DIR OUT signal is depending on the
DIRECT control’s setting. This output conguration is useful when dierent eects should be added
to the input signal and the eect signal, after the octave pedal’s output.
◊ If the DIR OUT connector is not in use, the unaected input signal and the eect signal
are both sent out through OUT A, depending on the eect activation.
Use the DC IN connection at the front of the unit to plug in a 9 V power supply (not included).
The BATTERY COMPARTMENT is located underneath the pedal cover. To install or replace the 9 V battery
(not included), press the hinges with a ballpoint pen and remove the pedal cover. Be careful not to scratch the unit.
