M-Audio AXIOM 25-49-61 User Manual page 17

On the 49- and 61-note versions, when Zone/Group is active, the group buttons A, B, C and D (located below faders D13 through
D16) are used to activate/deactivate Groups A-D, as the LCD screen shows.
On the 25-note version, when Zone/Group is active, the STOP, PLAY and REC buttons are used to activate/deactivate Groups A-C,
as the LCD display shows.
You can switch Zones and Groups on and off by pressing the Zone/Group button followed by the chosen Zone or Group buttons.
When you enable a single group, the other two (or three) groups are automatically disabled. To enable multiple groups, press the
respective group buttons at the same time.
Whenever you engage the Recall or Store functions, you will notice that Zone/Group select becomes active automatically.
If you press the Store button, all groups will be active by default to prevent any risk of some of the controllers you have set up
getting missed. However, if you do not wish to store all controller groups together, you can activate the desired combination of
controller groups by simultaneously pressing their respective group buttons immediately after pressing Store.
For example, if you want to store the settings for the trigger pads only:
49- and 61-note versions:
Press the Store button.
<
Press group button C to activate group C only.
<
The LCD display will now only flash the Group C symbol.
<
Use the numeric keypad to enter the memory location to store the Pad settings.
<
25-note version:
Press Advanced.
<
Press the Store key.
<
Press the REC button to activate group C.
<
The LCD display will now only flash the Group C symbol.
<
Use the numeric data entry keys to enter the memory location.
<
Press Enter to overwrite the selected memory location.
<
Note: When recalling a preset, only the groups currently active at that time are recalled.
3.2.2 Storing Your Presets on a Computer
It is possible to store the entire memory contents of your Axiom on a Mac, PC or a hardware sequencer. This is done using the
Memory Dump feature which sends a MIDI SysEx dump to the connected device.
You can record the SysEx data to a MIDI track on a sequencer, or we recommend using M-Audio's Enigma software to store and
manage you Axiom controller presets.
To send the entire memory contents of your Axiom to a computer:
49- and 61-note versions:
Press Store and Recall together to initiate the Memory Dump feature.
<
The LCD display will flash SYS while the Axiom is transmitting its Memory content.
<
Do not touch your Axiom until the SysEx dump has completed and the LCD display has returned to normal.
<
25-note version:
Press the Advanced button.
<
Press the Mem Dump key.
<
The LCD display will flash SYS while the Axiom is transmitting its Memory content.
<
Do not touch your Axiom until the SysEx dump has completed and the LCD display has returned to normal.
<
By sending an externally stored SysEx dump back through the MIDI IN or the USB port on your Axiom, it is possible to reprogram
the memory just as it was saved.
Note: The SysEx data will program the 20 memory locations on your Axiom. It does NOT affect the current control settings on
your Axiom. All current settings and assignments remain unchanged until you recall one of the 20 memory locations.
