Here’s what Morningstar say:

ML5R is a reorderable loop switcher that redefines your approach to audio effects. Experience entirely new sounds from your existing effects – just by switching up their order. Its sleek, intuitive interface enables you to switch the order of your effects quickly, whenever you want.

No Editor Required

Everything you can do on ML5R, you can do on ML5R. Set loop Order, Bypass and Trails with just a few simple switch presses.

Set Order

Simply press the loop buttons in your desired order, and the effect loops will be arranged accordingly. In the example below, the order is B > A > D > C > E.

Set Bypass

Select the loops that you want engaged when you recall an ML5R preset. Bypassed loops can be engaged individually after a preset has been recalled.

Set Trails

Enable spillover trails for your desired loop.

Save

Save your custom loop order, bypass states and trails as a preset in any of the 128 user slots. Simply send ML5R a Program Change message from 0 to 127 to recall your desired presets.

Full MIDI Capabilities

Scroll through presets, toggle individual loops on/off, rearrange loop order, control master mute and more. Take full control of ML5R with your MIDI controller.

If you use a Morningstar MIDI controller, a dedicated ML5R message type allows quick and easy access to all functions without needing to refer to any MIDI chart.

Morningstar

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Morningstar is represented by Pedal Switchers. Current listings include MIDI Box, ML5 Loop Switcher and MC3 MIDI Controller. That makes the range relevant to players looking for pedalboard infrastructure and control. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Pedal Switchers

Pedal switchers route effects in and out of the signal path from a central foot controller. They can reduce tap dancing, shorten active cable runs and recall combinations of pedals as presets or scenes. The important differences are the number of loops, series or parallel routing, buffer placement, relay bypass, MIDI, expression and amplifier-channel control. Check loop order, send and return levels, stereo support and whether the switcher can control the pedals and external equipment you already use.

MIDI

MIDI sends, receives or responds to Musical Instrument Digital Interface messages rather than carrying instrument audio itself. Program changes can recall presets, continuous controllers can move parameters and MIDI clock or transport messages can synchronise timing. Check the connector or USB method, channel and message support, clock direction, latency and whether the device needs a separate MIDI host or adapter. MIDI control is powerful, but compatibility depends on the exact messages each product understands.

Presets

Preset-capable products can store and recall effect settings, signal paths or control assignments. The useful differences are the number of locations, whether footswitches or MIDI can recall them, what parameters are saved, how quickly they change and whether trails continue between settings. Check editing, backup, firmware, expression and USB requirements, and confirm that the preset system covers the parameters you need rather than assuming every control is recalled.
