The DMC.micro PRO is an updated and improved version of our most popular controller,
featuring full-sized performance in a much smaller package.
The DMC.micro user interface is incredibly simple – tap the left or right buttons to perform an
action, hold the left button to perform a third "alternate" action, or hold the right button to
advance to the next "page. "
In this manual we'll explain all the functions of the controller, including helpful examples for
each page and setup type to help you get the most out of your rig.
We cover a TON of examples and setups in this manual but we have much more info on our
website - check out disasterareadesigns.com/support for more guides and info.

Even though the DMC.micro is small, it features a ton of input / output capability!
The rear panel contains the ports as shown in the diagram below.
The MIDI port normally operates as an output - connect a standard MIDI cable between this
port and a MIDI-capable device to have the DMC.micro control it.
You can also connect our DMC MIDI Y-cable to this port to access both MIDI INPUT and OUT-
PUT, which allows you to control the DMC.micro from another device. We'll cover this under
the Preset Expander section later.
Next up is the MultiJack - this versatile connector can perform many different functions
depending on the configuration of the DMC.micro. Some popular uses are MIDI output, ex-
pression pedal input, dual remote footswitch input, or even to send tap tempo to supported
devices!
There's also a USB port, which we use for firmware updates and USB MIDI to your DAW, iPad,
or other mobile device. It can also connect to certain other USB MIDI devices through our
gHOST adapter cable. For more info, please see the USB Host Mode Setup section on
Finally, we have a DC power jack. The DMC.micro requires 9V DC only, center negative, 2.1mm
pin. Just about anything that will power a Boss pedal will work on DMC.micro. You'll need to
provide at least 100mA of isolated power, but more is okay.
