Parameter:

Drawbar

Value Range:

Off, On

 

This parameter engages Drawbar Mode. When this mode is engaged, the operation of the sliders

 

is reversed and the maximum MIDI CC value (127) is reached when the slider is at the bottom

 

whereas the minimum CC value (0) is reached when the slider is pushed to the top. This operation

 

mimics the behavior of typical organs with draw bars.

Parameter:

NullMode

Value Range:

Off, On

 

When this parameter is set to its default “on” position, the MIDI output of the sliders is muted if the

 

physical slider is out-of-sync with the “expected” position of the slider shown on the LCD display.

 

This prevents associated parameters within your audio applications from potentially “jumping” or

 

“snapping” to a different MIDI CC value as soon as a slider is moved.

 

Unsynchronized sliders feature a horizontal line across the LCD display’s on-screen fader 1 that

 

represents its expected position. A square represents the location of the physical slider 2 . Once

 

the square moves over the line, the physical and on-screen sliders are synchronized 3 and that

 

slider begins to output MIDI data once again.

An Unsynchronized

Slider

1.Your DAW (or Virtual Instrument) is expecting the slider to be in this

position.

2.This is the actual position of the

hardware slider on

Axiom Pro.

ASynchronized Slider

3. Once the hardware

slider passes over the “expected” slider

position, the slider

becomes synchronized

and linked.

When this parameter is set to “off,” the horizontal line representing the “expected” slider position does not appear.

Note that the values of the Sliders are remembered each time a patch change occurs. When that patch next becomes active, the values are restored.
