MIDI Out
This parameter (also known as “MIDI Out From USB”) determines the source of MIDI data sent to the external
MIDI Out port. In its default setting (“OFF”), the MIDI OUT port will receive data from the Axiom keys and
Controls.
When set to 'USB' the MIDI Out port receives data from the USB connection to a host computer. This allows
Axiom to function as a USB MIDI interface between the computer and any external MIDI devices connected
to the Axiom 5 PIN MIDI connectors.
To send MIDI data to an external MIDI device, set MIDI Out to 'USB' and select Axiom as the MIDI Out port
in the DAW.
To select a new MIDI Out:
1 Press the Edit button.
2 Press the MIDI OUT Key. The LCD screen will display “USB ->” and indicate whether the function is “OFF”
or “ON.”
3 Press the Patch “Up” or “Down” button to turn the function on or off. Axiom will return to Performance
mode approximately one second after the final button is pressed.
Store
The Store function saves control assignment settings to one of 20 memory locations. Storing new assignment
settings permanently overwrites the contents of the selected memory location.
To Restore the factory presets hold down the Patch “Up” and “Down” buttons during power up.
Groups of Axiom controls can be included or excluded from saved presets by activating or deactivating their
respective Group buttons. For more information about the Group buttons, refer to Chapter 3, “Controls and
Connectors.”
To store an Axiom patch to a memory location:
1 Press the Edit button.
2 Press the Store key. The LCD screen will display the number of the last selected Patch memory location (for
example, “1”).
3 Enter the number of the memory location you want to store the new settings to, by using the number keys
or the Patch “Up” or “Down” buttons.
4 Press the Enter key to save the changes and overwrite the previous settings of the memory location.
The MIDI Out setting is retained when Axiom is turned off and on.
