3.5.2 Drum Pattern Composition
When you first turn your Axiom on, you will find that the pressure pads are set up as drum triggers for composing drum patterns
in MIDI sequencers.
To set up the drum triggers, you need to program the pads to send specific MIDI note numbers (see previous section). The note
numbers you assign depend on the drums that you want to control. Please refer to Appendix B to see which drums are mapped
to which MIDI note numbers. Then, using the Data 1 parameter for each pad on your Axiom, assign that note number to the pad,
as described above.
3.5.3 Sample/Loop Triggers with MIDI Controller Messages
In some cases,you may wish to send standard MIDI controller messages to trigger samples or loops. To make this work, you need
to first assign a MIDI controller to the pad and then set the pad to send just ON and OFF values. This is done as follows:
