## Description

PAINTAUDIO MIDI Captain ONE/DUO Foot Controller Multi-Effects Keyboards Synthesizer

Review: Warning for UAFX pedal control! - This pedal is very nicely made and I think I’d be very happy with it if my use case were slightly different. I wanted to control a few settings in a UAFX guitar pedal, which now allows for MIDI control via USB. I’ve now learned that this pedal will NOT function as a MIDI host when connected directly to a UAFX pedal. You’ll need another device between the two (e.g. CME H2MIDI Pro). I didn’t want to continue adding more complication for the goal I had, so found a different (non-MIDI) solution. As others have mentioned, this thing does require some technical nerdery. If you’re someone who does basic programming or scripting on a PC, it’s not a complicated task. The method PaintAudio has developed for allowing nearly infinite variability and customization for control is pretty great, but it was developed by engineers. If you have an “engineery” brain, you’ll probably love it. At the volume of sales they probably do for a product like this, if they dedicated resources toward creating a slick GUI for setting up the controls they would probably need raise the price 300% to make it worthwhile for business. I’ll happily take their current solution of editing a text file, which is cheaper and won’t ever lose support the way a software solution would.
Review: Works great for what I needed. - I purchased this for the simple task of toggling MOD/DEL effects on my ToneX pedal. I originally had hoped to achieve this with a dual switch(not midi) but learned this is not possible with the ToneX with it's current firmware. The configuration was dead simple. You only need to edit a config file that exists on the MIDI pedal. I had it working within an hour of receiving it. Before I discuss possible "drawbacks" I have to make the disclaimer that I'm not a MIDI expert, I only know what I've been required to learn over the years when configuring MIDI devices for specific purposes. What I don't like, is if I toggle an effect on, then change presets it doesn't reflect the state of the effect on the new preset. I will work on the new preset but it has to be "reset" so to speak. My guess is the Tonex would need to send a signal back to the midi controller in order reset it. There may be a way to do this, but the pedal has only MIDI OUT, so it seems unlikely. I will update if this changes. Barring that small issue it does what I want. Looking at the documentation it would appear that it actually can do much more.
