MIDI

Our pedals are prepared to be controlled by MIDI protocol on channel 1 to
channel 4 (check the operation guide to learn how to change the MIDI
channel), so you can access presets, save new presets and even control
individual parameters of your pedals via a MIDI controller. Below are
instructions on how to communicate with the pedal.
Our system does not use the standard MIDI interface, as there is no
optocoupler on the input, but this system is used in several pedals in this
industry. You will need a MIDI converter or controller with TRS P10 outputs
to use MIDI on our pedals. Below is the pinout to be followed:
