MIDI Parameters 

The MIDI page of the I/O menu contains parameters related to MIDI channel, thru, and program changes. 

PARAMETER 

Description 

MIDI CHANNEL 

1–16, OMNI 

Sets the channel on which the Axe-Fx II will receive MIDI messages. OMNI causes the 
unit to respond to incoming messages on ANY channel. 

MIDI THRU 

OFF/ON  

Turning this ON will cause MIDI data received at the MIDI IN port to be forwarded to 
the MIDI OUT port, where it is 

merged

 with regular outbound MIDI—SysEx dumps or 

Realtime Tuner/Tempo Sysex for example. Thru is disabled during firmware update. 

PROG CHANGE 

ON/OFF 

This parameter determines whether the Axe-Fx II will process or ignore incoming 
MIDI program change messages. 

MAPPING MODE 

NONE/CUSTOM 

This determines whether the Axe-Fx II will respond explicitly to MIDI program change 
messages received, or whether it will re-map incoming program change messages to 
load user-specified presets. For example, an incoming program change message of 15 
would normally recall preset 15 (or preset 16 if DISPLAY OFFSET is on; see below). 
With Custom Mapping set up, program change message 15 might be set to recall 
preset 100, or any other preset you choose. 

MAP FROM/MAP TO 

0–127, 0–383 

These two parameters work in pairs to specify which preset will be loaded for each 
incoming program change message when 

MAPPING MODE

 is set to “CUSTOM.” For 

example, if you select “15” for 

MAP FROM

 and then set a 

MAP TO

 value of “100,” 

incoming Program Change #15 actually will load Axe-Fx II Preset 100 (or 101 if display 
offset is on; see below). 

SYSEX ID 

This is 

00 01 74

 for the Axe-Fx II and cannot be modified. 

DISPLAY OFFSET 

0/1 

Display Offset causes Axe-Fx II presets to appear to be numbered from 001 instead of 
from 000. The offset does not change which preset is recalled by a given Program 
Change message. 

Note: Display Offset requires a corresponding setting in a connected 

MFC-101 MIDI Foot Controller.

 

IGNORE REDUNDANT PC 

OFF/ON 

This determines whether the Axe-Fx II should re-process or ignore a MIDI program 
change command for the currently loaded preset. With this setting OFF, the current 
preset will be reloaded (and changes discarded) if it is selected again via MIDI PC. 
Turning this OFF allows you, for instance, to load a preset, use various MIDI “instant 
Access” switches or pedals to bypass effects or otherwise modify the sound, and then 
stomp on the footswitch that originally selected the preset to have it revert to its 
saved state. With this setting ON, redundant PC messages are ignored. 

SEND REALTIME SYSEX 

NONE/ALL/TUNER/TEMPO 

Selectively determines whether real-time SysEx messages for TUNER and TEMPO will 
appear at the MIDI OUT port. The default setting of ALL ensures that a connected 
MFC-101 Midi Foot Controller will be able to show the Axe-Fx II Tuner on the floor, 
and that its TEMPO LED will flash in time with the current Axe-Fx II system tempo.
