Put flexible MIDI control at your feet with the Darkglass MIDI Footswitch. Five physical switches and matching color LEDs give performers clear, direct access to programmed actions while keeping both hands on the instrument. In bank mode, the controller provides 5 banks with 5 presets each, creating 25 preset positions for live sets, rehearsals, and studio workflows.
Custom Control Through Darkglass Suite
Connect the footswitch to a computer through USB C and configure it with Darkglass Suite. Ready configurations help speed setup with supported Darkglass products, while freely assignable commands support more advanced systems. Main and sub operational layers can hold separate actions, and the controller can send several MIDI messages at the same time. This makes it practical for simple preset changes or coordinated command sequences across a larger rig.
Connectivity for Darkglass and Generic MIDI Gear
MIDI OUT/THRU uses a 7 and 5 pin DIN connector for compatible Darkglass amplifiers, pedals, and generic MIDI devices. MIDI IN accepts messages from another controller and passes them through to the output. The USB C connection supports configuration, USB MIDI operation, and power. A 1/4 inch TS connector also allows compatible Darkglass amplifier control.
Flexible Power for Different Setups
Choose the power method that fits the rig. The footswitch can run from a center negative 9V DC supply, USB, MIDI OUT/THRU, or a compatible Darkglass amplifier connection. When connected to a Darkglass e500 or Infinity Combo with a 7 pin MIDI cable, it does not require a separate power supply. The result is one adaptable controller for stage, rehearsal, and computer based MIDI control.
