Disaster Area Designs DMC.micro GEN4

The DMC.micro Gen4 is the first in a new generation of MIDI controllers. Featuring all of the features of the previous DMC.micro Pro and DMC.micro Classic, with a vastly improved USB controller and a dual-core 32 bit processor, the DMC.micro Gen4 is maximum MIDI in a minimum footprint.

The DMC.micro Gen4 uses our advanced MIDI technology in a tiny package – just 3.6″ x 1.5″ x 1.6″ (93 x 38 x 42mm.)

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.”

The DMC.micro Gen4 can access up to eight pages, whose functions may include:

Device Control:  Program select and bypass for up to four devices.

Utility Mode X: User-set actions on left / right / alt buttons.

Utility Mode Y: User-set actions on left / right / alt buttons. This mode is also assignable to looper controls for the Strymon Timeline, Eventide H9 / Timefactor, HX Stomp / Effects, or Line 6 M9/M13.

Preset: Stores programs from Device Control pages and allows the user to change multiple devices at once.

Clock: Control the DMC.micro Gen4’s built-in MIDI clock generator

Web-based editor: Completely configure the entire controller, set preset names, re-order presets, import and export controller settings.

Features

• Graphical OLED display shows preset names, device status, clock rate, and more.

• One MultiJack connector can function as Expression Pedal input, Tap Tempo Output, Function Switch Output, Footswitch Input, or MIDI Output.
• Internal DIP switches to customize MultiJack functions.
• Up to 99 user-accessible presets (if preset page is active.)
• Controls up to four MIDI devices
• User-definable Utility Mode X page sends any MIDI CC command, MIDI notes, bank up and down, more.
• New Utility Mode Y page adds additional user-defined commands or use as looper control mode
• USB Type-C port for power, USB MIDI, or firmware updates
• USB Type-A port for dedicated USB MIDI HOST, connect to most class-compliant USB MIDI devices
• Runs on 5V USB or standard 9V power, 40mA or higher

The DMC.micro Gen4 also features our astounding MultiJack connector, which can perform several different functions to simplify your setup!

• Connect one or two 1/4″ MIDI devices from companies such as Alexander Pedals, Chase Bliss Audio, Empress, and Meris
• Functions as a bi-directional MIDI port for supported devices, allows connections for Meris pedals to editing software.
• Connect an expression pedal to send MIDI messages to one or more of your devices, or user-define a custom MIDI CC expression command.
• Connect an external one- or two-button footswitch for tap tempo control, or user-define two custom actions.
• Send tap tempo to an external device such as a DD-7, Panther Cub, Flint, and more.

Need more control? Use the USB port to interface with your computer or tablet device and turn the DMC.micro into a USB MIDI controller. Maybe you have a Zoom MultiStomp (MS-50G / MS-60B / MS-70CDR?) or a newer Red Panda pedal? Connect it to the USB Host port to control it just like a normal MIDI device.

Want to interface your DAW or tablet to your pedalboard wirelessly? Connect a CME Widi Bud Pro to the USB Host port for bi-directional MIDI communication over Bluetooth.

You can even chain multiple MIDI controllers together through the USB Host port, to create one seamless integrated control station.
