Overview

The JET Micro HX 3.0 is a three button MIDI controller made specifically for the HX Stomp. The 

Micro comes pre-programmed to control all of the Stomp's "utility" features such as preset 

scrolling, tap tempo, tuner, snapshots, & looper controls. Alongside the pre-programmed "utility" 

features, you can also use the three buttons to bypass blocks and/or toggle effect parameters 

up/down for up to 6 individual blocks.

As an additional bonus, the JET Micro can also control limited functionality to several other 

popular MIDI enabled pedals such as Strymon, Eventide H9, Boss, GFI Systems, Source 

Audio, Chase Bliss, & Empress. The Micro will send PC messages on different MIDI channels 

to control up to 5 additional pedals whenever you engage Snapshots. Snapshot 1 will send 

out the first PC#, Snapshot 2 will send out the second PC#, and Snapshot 3 will send out the 

third PC#. Use our "MIDI Implementation Table" to see which MIDI channel you should set 

your other devices to for proper operation for each pedal manufacturer. Link to the "MIDI 

Implementation Table" can be found here:

*Note that this feature can be turned off in the 

Global Settings

if desired.

We've also had a lot of customers ask about making one of the buttons in the red bank 

(Stomp Mode) be assignable to tap tempo, giving you access to an "always active" tap 

tempo button in lieu of having to navigate to the blue bank (Tap/Tuner Mode) to access the 

tap tempo. Now with the JET Micro HX 3.0 you can assign any of the three buttons (A, B, or 

C) to tap tempo, which can be setup within the 

Global Settings.
