To send a Bank LSB or Bank MSB message:
1.
Press the Edit button. It will illuminate to full-brightness.
2.
Press the Bank LSB or Bank MSB key, depending on the kind of message you want to send.
3.
Use the numerical keys (0–9) to enter the desired bank value (0-127).
4.
Press the Enter key. The Edit button will return to half-brightness, indicating that you have sent the
Bank LSB or Bank MSB message (and that your Axiom is no longer in Edit Mode).
Sustain
The Sustain button acts like the sustain pedal on a piano; it sustains all currently held notes (on the keyboard
or trigger pads). Its action can be momentary (sustaining only when the button is pressed and held) or
latching (sustain will be switched on or off with each button press).

To select the desired Sustain button mode:
1.
Press the Edit button. It will illuminate to full-brightness.
2.
Press the Sustain Mode key to switch between momentary and latching behavior.
3.
Wait one second. Your Axiom will automatically exit Edit Mode.
Velocity Curves
The keyboard and trigger pads on Axiom are velocity-sensitive; playing with more force results in a higher
volume, while playing with less force results in a lower volume. This dynamic range gives your performance a
more natural sound and feel. You can vary the touch sensitivity of the keyboard by selecting a velocity curve,
tailoring the keys' response to your particular playing style.
To select a velocity curve:
1.
Press the Edit button. It will illuminate to full-brightness.
2.
Press the Vel Curve key.
3.
Use the numerical keys (0–9) to enter the desired value (0-127). The velocity curve settings are as
follows:
•
0:
Low velocity curve (low sensitivity)
•
1 (default):
Normal velocity curve (default sensitivity)
•
2:
High velocity curve (high, exponential sensitivity)
•
3:
Stepped velocity (outputs only velocity values 100 and 127)
•
4-127:
Fixed velocity (outputs only a fixed velocity from 4 to 127)
4.
Press the Enter key to save the new velocity curve setting, or press Cancel or Edit to exit Edit Mode
and discard any new settings.
