25-note version:
< Press the Advanced button.
< Press the Curve key twice.
< The LCD will show Pd on the small 2-digit display as well as the currently selected velocity curve on the
3-digit display. The current curve is preceded by a C if a curve is selected, or F if a xed velocity* is selected.
< Enter the new curve number using the numeric data entry keys or use the -/+ keys to step through the
options.
< Press the Enter key to conrm the Pad Curve setting.
*It is also possible to send xed velocities each time you press a pad This is useful when composing drum parts, or simple
synthesizer tracks. The xed velocities are selected by assigning Pad Curve 10 to 12 as follows:
CurveFixed Velocity Value
1064
11100
12127
3.5.6VelocityLock
The Velocity Lock (Vel. Lock) feature allows you to immediately turn off the response curve of the pads, and lock them to a set
velocity. You can assign a different Lock velocity to each pad individually.
To turn Vel. Lock mode on and off for Axiom 49 or 61, press the Bank LSB and Glob Chan buttons together.
On the 25-note version, rst press the Advanced button and then the Vel Lock key. The display will show Loc if you turn Vel Lock
on.
Please note that the Vel. Lock feature only applies to pads set up as trigger pads. If a pad is assigned as a pressure pad, the Vel. Lock
function has no affect.
The velocities that are locked by this function are set using the Data 2 and Data 3 parameters for each pad.
Setting the Vel. Lock parameters as follows:
49- and 61-note versions:
< Select the pad for programming as explained in section 2.4.2.
< Ensure the pad is set up as a note trigger pad as described in section 3.5.1.
< Press the Data 3 button. Enter the xed ON velocity.
< Press the Data 2 button. Enter the xed OFF velocity.
25-note version:
< Select the pad for programming as explained in section 2.4.2.
< Ensure the pad is set up as a note trigger pad as described in section 3.5.1.
< Press the Advanced button.
< Press the Data 3 key. Enter the xed ON velocity.
< Press the Enter key to conrm.
< Press Data 2 key. Enter the xed OFF velocity.
< Press the Enter key to conrm.
3.6ControllingSeveralDevicesattheSameTime
In a software MIDI environment, it is often desirable to control more than one device at a time. This is done by transmitting on
different MIDI channels with each one triggering a different sound. Using the Axiom, you can divide the keyboard into sections, with
each section transmitting on a different MIDI channel. Furthermore, you can assign the MIDI channel of each physical controller on
your Axiom to individual channelsor even tie controls to the different sections of the keyboard you have set. Dividing the keyboard
and assigning different channels is done using the Zone feature.
