hi everyone. Im new to the whole effects world and feel like a dumbass asking this but anyways, i have a Hartke HA 2500 head with 2 Hartke cabs. i brought a Behringer Bass V-Amp pro (the rackmount one) the other day online for bugger all, and before it gets here i would like to know the best way about hooking it up to my Hartke? Ive downloaded the manual online but its about as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle

also with the Behringer being a pre-amp aswell (as i understand it is? i may be wrong here) would this have any problems with the Pre amp setting already on my Hartke? (it has tube and valve emulation presets..)

it will be used for a combination of Rehearsal & Live, with the odd bit of recording here & there

any help is greatly appreciated

I could be wrong but I'm gonna say effects loop on this one.

[Zappstorius]

Yes, most definatley effects loop on the head.

[L-A]

Your bass -> Hartke front input
Hartke rear effect send -> V-Amp rear line-in
V-Amp rear line-out -> Hartke rear effect return

Voilà!

Make sure the V-Amp's "Line-in", beside the front input jack, is pressed.
