Uploading Pedal Box / Pedal Board

Now we are ready to upload Pedal Box. Browse to your Pedal Box directory and open the pbx_config.h
file.
You need to customise the application here. Comments inside in main.h will tell you what each setting
does.

Once you've customised the application it needs to be recompiled. Simply run re-make.bat.

Upload the created project.hex using MIOS Studio (or .syx using MIDI-OX or other midi software) file to
the core module. MIOS will now reboot, and that's it!

ENABLE_MIDI_IN - If you wish to utilise the MIDI IN port, set to 1. Otherwise 0
