Thank you for your interest in the qCONNECT Multiple Output MIDI Controller!
qCONNECT is designed to integrate all of your MIDI devices into a single point of control.
It can interface with 5-pin and 1/4" MIDI devices without the use of external converters or
special cables, and provides a streamlined user experience designed to get your rig set up
as quickly as possible. It can even interface with a single USB MIDI device using the optional
gHOST Adaptor Cable.
We've been making compact MIDI controllers for a while now, so we have a pretty good han-
dle on the pitfalls and problem spots when dealing with MIDI on your pedalboard. We'll do
our best to guide you through the process step-by-step, but we can't cover every special case.
If you read through the entire manual and your question isn't covered, please email us from
the Contact page on our website and we'll do our best to sort you out as quickly as we can.

You'll notice that qCONNECT has a LOT of 1/4" jacks on the back panel - eight to be exact!
These jacks aren't for effects loops like some of our other controllers, but rather they send
MIDI data over standard 1/4" mono or stereo cables.
The four black control ports labeled A-F can send MIDI on either the tip or the ring of the 1/4"
cable, or on both at the same time. We'll cover what the difference is and why it's important
later in the manual in the "Configuring the Outputs" section on
The two red (or white) ports labeled X and Y can send MIDI just like A-F, but they may also be
used as expression pedal or tap tempo inputs.
There's also a USB port, which we use for firmware updates and USB MIDI to your DAW, iPad,
or other mobile device. It can also connect to certain other USB MIDI devices through our
gHOST adaptor cable. For more info, please see the USB Host Mode Setup section on
Not shown in the above drawing are the two 5-pin MIDI ports. These ports send to and
receive from standard MIDI gear. You can even daisy-chain multiple qCONNECTs together
using these ports!
Finally, we have a DC power jack. The qCONNECT requires 9V DC only, center negative, 2.1mm
pin. Just about anything that will power a Boss pedal will work on qCONNECT. You'll need to
provide at least 100mA of isolated power, but more is okay.
