Edit Mode (Main Menu)

This top-level menu appears when Axiom Pro enters Edit mode.

To navigate this menu, use the numerical keypad on Axiom Pro 49/61 or the black keys of Axiom Pro 25 (each black key on Axiom 25 corresponds to the number that is silk-screened above the note).

•Options 1-5 (Global, Control, Group, Zones, MIDI): These items are sub-menus pertaining to specific features of Axiom Pro. Each sub-menu is described in detail in the following pages.

•Option 6: This “LCD” option allows you to invert the colors of the display as this may increase visibility under certain lighting conditions.

•Option 0: The HyperControl Mode parameter can be toggled between “Normal” and “Transport.” When this parameter is left in the default “Normal” setting, HyperControl functionality spans across most controls on the keyboard (i.e. knobs, F-Keys, sliders, etc.) When the parameter is set to “Transport,” HyperControl functionality only applies to the transport controls while the remainder of the controls (knobs, F-Keys, sliders, etc.) function like a typical MIDI controller. This is useful for users who wish to create their own Axiom Pro patches, but still require transport controls that automatically map to the software within your computer.

✓NOTE: If HyperControl is active and you would like to do any of the following, set this parameter to “Transport”:

•Control external MIDI hardware via a selected MIDI track in your DAW

•Create and use customized controller assignments for your software or plug-in

•Run additional audio applications alongside your “main” HyperControl sequencing application and control both from Axiom Pro
