The manual is here:
http://www.americanmusical.com/manuals/digitech/dodcontrolx_manual.pdf

 From a quick read-through of the manual I wasn't able to detect  
which MIDI events the pedal's buttons and pedals send out. No MIDI  
specification chart included in the manual. I would not buy one of  
these for external MIDI control on basis of the poor information  
given online. If you want to buy it in a store it's an easy thing to  
hook up something to the MIDI outputs and find out what it sends. And  
of course, you need to know which MIDI events you need for your looper.
