3.2.2 Storing Your Presets on a Computer
It is possible to store the entire memory contents of your Axiom on a Mac, PC or a hardware sequencer. This is done using the
Memory Dump feature which sends a MIDI SysEx dump to the connected device.
You can record the SysEx data to a MIDI track on a sequencer, or we recommend using M-Audio’s Enigma software to store and
manage you Axiom controller presets.
To send the entire memory contents of your Axiom to a computer:
49- and 61-note versions:
<
Press Store and Recall together to initiate the Memory Dump feature.
<
The LCD display will flash SYS while the Axiom is transmitting its Memory content.
<
Do not touch your Axiom until the SysEx dump has completed and the LCD display has returned to normal.
25-note version:
<
Press the Advanced button.
<
Press the Mem Dump key.
<
The LCD display will flash SYS while the Axiom is transmitting its Memory content.
<
Do not touch your Axiom until the SysEx dump has completed and the LCD display has returned to normal.
By sending an externally stored SysEx dump back through the MIDI IN or the USB port on your Axiom, it is possible to reprogram
the memory just as it was saved.
Note
: The SysEx data will program the 20 memory locations on your Axiom. It does NOT affect the current control settings on
your Axiom. All current settings and assignments remain unchanged until you recall one of the 20 memory locations.
3.2.3 Device ID
On the 49- and 61-note versions, you can define the device ID of your specific Axiom keyboard when sending a SysEx memory
dump. The device ID is used to distinguish between any number of connected Axiom keyboards, if you own more than one.
The 25-note version does not have a device ID feature and so the device ID remains hard coded at 127. (127 is also the default
device ID for the 49- and 61-note versions.) With the device ID set to 127, your Axiom responds to any SysEx memory dump that
it reads at the MIDI IN or USB port – even if the received memory dump specifies a different device ID.
If you change the device ID to any number other than 127, the device will only respond to SysEx memory dumps which were
originally recorded on the same device ID number.
To change the default device ID on Axiom 49 or 61, simultaneously press the Ctrl Assign and Store buttons, then enter the desired
device ID using the numeric keypad or the -/+ buttons.
