3.5.4 Pressure Control
Using the pressure control, the pads give you a different type of performance option on your Axiom. You can control parameters
on your software in a way that would not be possible on a standard dial or slider. The pressure pads can be used to make some
very interesting effects.
As we've seen above, each pad can be assigned an individual MIDI controller number. It is also possible to assign minimum and
maximum values to the controller. As you apply more and more pressure to the pad, the value of the controller you are sending will
increase, until the maximum value you specified is reached. On release, the pad will return to the minimum value you specified.
To set the controller for a pressure pad with a minimum and maximum value:

independently.
There are nine velocity response curves and three fixed curves.
