HyperControl Installations
Rather than assigning parameters one by one, activating Axiom AIR's HyperControl Mode automatically maps its controls to many of the most frequently used digital audio workstation (DAW) features and settings. When used with a supported DAW, you can control the transport, mixing controls (faders and panning) and virtual instrument or signal processing
To enable HyperControl with your Axiom AIR, you need to install some additional software, including the Hypercontrol "personality" for your specific DAW. Visit
Also, see the HyperControl section of this manual for more information.
Additional Installations
We also highly recommend installing the following software applications:
Ableton Live Lite: We've included Ableton Live Lite with your Axiom AIR so you can get started making music with professional software right out of the box. Insert the DVD into your computer's DVD drive, open the "setup" application or .exe (Windows) or .mpkg file (Mac), and then follow the
Ignite (airmusictech.com/getignite): We recommend downloading Ignite, a music creation tool designed by AIR Music Technology to be easiest way to capture, build, and share musical ideas. Ignite works well on its own or as a writing companion to the production capabilities of your DAW. Axiom AIR's controls are fully integrated with Ignite, providing easy control of common tasks like preset selection, parameter control, and interface navigation. See the Controlling Ignite section of this manual for more information.
Quick Start
1.Use the included USB cable to connect your Axiom AIR to an available USB port on your computer. (If you are connecting to a USB hub, ensure that it is a powered hub.) When connected properly, and when your computer is on, power Axiom AIR on using the power switch on its rear panel. Its buttons, fader button, knobs, trigger pads, and LCD will illuminate.
