I've recently invested in a couple of pedals that have MIDI, one of which (Ventris) is hugely opened up by using MIDI. (the other is a DD500)
The problem is that I've never used it for guitar and have actively stayed away as it all looks far too complicated. However to get the most out of what I've got I want to finally gain some kind of grasp of this.
I don't have a huge amount of space on my board, and so was thinking something along the lines of the Disaster Area DMC 3, or their Micro? Is there a UK equivalent company?
Once I've got that, has anyone got a youtube video they'd recommend that shows the basics of how to set stuff up?
Any other advice is welcome

Depending on how many other pedals you use, this seems to be very powerful, with some great features and, apart from the midi programming which seems a pain no matter what you do, looks to be quite intuitive.

I have seen that name mentioned before, but I was thinking more around the £100 mark. Though I'm sure the one above would do everything I could ever want, it might be too big a step to start with.
I essentially want to be able to have access to more presets on the Ventris and then change both the DD500 and Ventris at the same time for certain collaborations (is that possible?)

Thanks bud, I've been looking at the One Control stuff this morning, the Gecko II and the Basilisk could work, from what I've understood

I got mine used for a little over £100.
Its idiot proof and super easy to do.
If I can find one for that kind of price then I'd be happy to play ball.
Theres a Disaster Area DMC 3 at Mansons 2nd hand, would that do the job?

If you post on tgp in the effects section you have a good chance of disaster area messaging you back.
Alternatively check their website
If you want to be able to select different combinations of patches, or use MIDI control change messages for expression pedal functions (or any of the other things the pedals' manuals say they can do via MIDI CC) you'll need a MIDI controller, but you'll still need to work out what you want to be able to do to make sure you get a unit that does that.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
Plenty of YouTube videos on them too
If you'd be willing to make one for me as well, that would be lovely, thanks :-)
I'm about as good with building pedal things as Man United are at playing entertaining football
