Features
Compact size – 10" x 2.6" x 2" excluding switch caps and jacks.
No special power supply required – uses less than 120mA, 9V from a Pedal Power 2 or similar.
5 footswitches for preset selection or manual effects loop control.
48 presets accessible by foot, arranged in four folders with three banks of four presets each.
128 presets accessible using an external MIDI controller
Full MIDI control of presets and effects loops
8 effects loops with a custom-designed switching matrix
MIDI mode controls up to two MIDI devices
Dedicated insert connection may be assigned to any position in the effects loop section.
Always-on tuner out with tuner mute, doubles as second MIDI interface
Status LEDs with user-definable brightness work in any situation from an orchestra pit to full sun.
Exclusive Z-MODE buffer allows you to tailor the impedance to work with fuzz, vibe, wah, and other impedance-sensitive pedals
USB connector for MIDI connection and future firmware upgrades (PC and Mac firmware update tools available.)
If you already have a MIDI controller, the DPC-8EZ can act as a MIDI “slave” on any available channel. You can even connect two or more DPC-8EZ to control more pedals.
The DPC-8EZ is fully compatible with the Disaster Area Gen3 pedal controllers – connect it to add eight effects loops under MIDI control. The DPC-8EZ can also function as a standalone MIDI controller for up to two devices.
Do you have a MIDI-capable multi-effects unit like the Line 6 Helix / Helix LT / HX Effects, or Fractal AX8? The DPC-8EZ Gen3 can interface directly with your rig to add up to eight independently controllable loops for your non-MIDI pedals! Combine your favorite analog distortion, compression, modulation, and delay pedals with the digital sounds from your other gear, without giving up your control and flexibility.
