AXON AX-100 GUITAR TO MIDI CONVERTER
UTILITY MODE
To activate UTILITY MODE, press the UTIL button on the front of
your AXON. The LED next to the UTIL button will be lit.
Utility Parameters
Utility Mode controls the appearance of information in your display.
This mode also controls the load and save functions via MIDI
(SYSEX), so that you can save all of your valuable presets and
parameters to a floppy disk using the appropriate communications
software. Owners of the AXON AX 100-SB will find here numerous
settings for drum sequences, programmable digital effects and the
QS300 synthesizer section.
DISPLAY
Control instrument and the LCD display (TUNING, LEVEL)
Here you decide which instrument in PRESET MODE you want be
shown in the bottom half of the display:
TUNING
With this setting selected, the bottom half of your AXON’s LCD
display shows a guitar tuner, that can be used during play to check
and correct the tuning of your input instrument. Tune each string so
that the arrow points to the middle of the scale. If the Tune Base
Parameter is set to 0 (zero), the middle point on the tuning scale in
the display represents the standard tuning calibration of 440 Hertz.
LEVEL
With this selection, instead of a tuner, you see a VU (LEVEL) meter
in the bottom half of the display. The small vertical bars represent the
present levels of each of the six strings of your guitar. The higher the
bar, the louder the string.
