Setting Up the DMC.micro 

Setting up a pedalboard or rig with several MIDI devices is kind of like introducing some friends to each other.

You:  “Hi, MIDI controller, this is Pedal.”
You:  “And Pedal, this is MIDI controller.”
Pedal:  “Pleased to meet you!”
MIDI Controller: “Nice to meet you, too!”

Seems pleasant enough, right?  So there’s no need to stress out, we’re here to help make it an easy process.  Here’s what to do:

1.  Figure out which MIDI devices you want to connect to the DMC.micro
2. Make sure you have the correct cabling to hook everything up
3. Tell the DMC.micro what you’re hooking up - this is the part where you said, “Hi, MIDI controller, this is Pedal.”
4. Tell your pedals about your MIDI control needs - this is the part where you said, “And Pedal, this is MIDI controller.”

Not too bad, right?  Let’s take it step by step.  
Connecting your MIDI devices:  MIDI connections come in one of three forms - 5-pin DIN, 1/4”, or USB.

(Yes, these are ALL MIDI Jacks!)

In order to connect your device or devices to the DMC.micro you will need the correct cabling!  

The DMC.micro may control up to 

THREE MIDI devices in any combination.

  For example, three devices chained to the 5-pin port, or two 1/4” devices and one USB. 

Here’s a handy chart to help you figure out what you need:

The MIDI port can connect to multiple devices by “daisy-chaining” them from input to output.  For example, if you wish to connect both a 
Timeline and a BigSky to your DMC.micro, simply plug one MIDI cable from the DMC MIDI port to the MIDI input of your Timeline.  Plug 
a second MIDI cable from the Timeline’s MIDI output to the MIDI input of the BigSky.  You may connect up to three MIDI devices to the 
DMC.micro MIDI port.

The MultiJack may connect to one or two MIDI devices, depending on the cable you have connected, see the chart above.

The USB port may connect to one MIDI device, by using the gHOST Adaptor cable plus the correct type of USB cable.
