      Hey guys,

      I’ve had a H9 and a Timeline for some time now functioning fine with my DMC 3XL, but after I got my 2nd H9, the DMC doesn’t seem to be able to work with either H9. It still works fine with the Timeline, but I just can’t seem to get either of the H9s to respond to the DMC. Is there anything I could try to isolate the issue? Thanks in advance!!

      Can you describe how you’re hooking them up? If you are daisy-chaining the pedals, did you make sure to configure the MIDI OUT of the first H9 to “THRU” in the system settings?

      Did you also configure your DMC controller to work for three pedals? I believe Disaster Area defines them as DevA, DevB, and DevC. Then you must go into each device and define which pedal it pertains to. For example, DevA – TimeLine, DevB – H9, DevC – H9#2. These types are preprogrammed by Disaster Area from factory but you still have tell the controller which “pedal” belongs to each “Device.” Also, each pedal in your rig has to be assigned it’s own MIDI channel. Whatever pedal is assigned to DevA should be programmed to MIDI channel 1, DevB should be MIDI a channel 2, DevC should be 3.

      Page 4 & 5 of the DMC a manual goes into specifics: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5ffa32e2e3802f025d87246d/t/60b156a5256b153d1e64db3e/1622234789413/DMC-3XL+Gen3+Manual+v1.60.pdf
