Morningstar EngineeringMC6 PRO Pedalboard MIDI Controller

Morningstar Engineering MC6 PRO

MC6 PRO represents the best of what Morningstar Engineering has to offer: robust and flexible MIDI control of any and all devices that you might find on a pedalboard. Each footswitch on the MC6 PRO corresponds to a preset, with the ability to send 32 messages in each preset. These messages include standard MIDI messages like program changes, control changes, note on/off, SysEx, and MIDI Clock, as well as state management commands for the MC6 PRO itself. And with four pages of six presets across 128 banks each, you don't need to do the math to know that the MC6 PRO boasts a ton of options.

Employing a screen system never before seen on any of their previous products, the MC6 PRO can be as vibrant and colorful as your music. Of course, clear labeling helps you navigate your controller in the heat of your performance. Color Strips not only offer aesthetic customization, but they can brighten or dim to indicate preset status. There's even a number of cute built-in icons—how fun!

With all that it has to offer, the MC6 PRO also delivers in its assortment of input and output ports. Four of Morningstar's signature Omniports are on board: 1/4" TRS jacks that can be independently assigned as MIDI outputs or inputs for expression pedals and aux switches. Of course, there's also 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O ports as well as side-mounted 3.5mm TRS MIDI jacks. New for the MC6 PRO are USB-C device and host ports, respectively supporting connection to computers and directly to pedals with USB ports. You can even control your amp's channel switching or pedals with external switch inputs via the MC6 PRO's two relay ports. The Morningstar MC6 PRO is the be-all, end-all pedalboard MIDI controller for your rig.
