Strymon Volante + DMC.micro (Setup and Use)

In this video I show you how to setup and use a Strymon Volante (v1.12) and Disaster Area DMC.Micro (Gen 3) together. I cover setting up the Volante and then the MIDI Controller, Saving Presets, and moving Presets.

If you want to watch the sequel video of this, showing some of my tips and tricks in it's operation, you can use this link to be directed there:

Or if you need a Strymon footswitch repaired, look no further, that video is here:

Thanks for watching,

Man you are awesome! I was looking for something small and easy for my Volante to switch presets. Didn’t want anything big thanks so much!

I just picked up the midi baby 3 and am having a deuce of a time setting it up for banking up and down on my Volante. Would you be willing to share your settings from the DAD configuration site? Thanks!

[zachepps]

great video! is there a way you can set the device to display the BPM number your current preset is set to on the screen?

Thanks for making this video, much appreciated, I was able to set up the Volante as you indicated. I am now trying to plug in an expression pedal to the .micro so I can use it to control the Volante. Any tips you could pass along for that process?

Hi Kris thanks for the advice, I bought the dmc micro for my volante and work amazing… can you use the dmc just for the volante o more pedal at the same time?.

Thank you so much for your clear explanations. I'm just starting in MIDI implementation and your video is really helpful to me. I'd love to get this DMC.micro Pro, as anything bigger won't fit on my pedal board. My hope is that I could create and switch presets on my STRYMON IRIDIUM. I searched quite a bit but could not find if the Iridium midi was compatible to the DMC.micro pro... Would you know ?

Thanks for this! Do you use a regular trs cable to connect the switcher and Volante or is it a special kind of cable?

Will the sound spillover/trail when you change from the current preset to next when you scroll?

[rigo.matias]

Does this go the same for the dmc 4 gen 3

Hey! Any luck getting the SOS looper to work with this controller, alongside using it for the function of presets?

[TheJMIsound]

Hello there, I’m new to the volante and midi, I’m looking to purchase the dmc for preset control on the volante. What cable would I need? Thanks!

[celestiallamour]

Are you able to use the disaster area
And set up BPM and a preferred setting for a Strymon El Capistan? Or does it only work for Timeline, Volante etc?

[YeatzeeGuitar]

What midi cable is that you're using?
