Resend Pitchbend Range (SND PBENDRG)
(ON/OFF)
If your MIDI instrument supports separate pitchbend settings for each preset, you must set this
parameter to ON. In this case, your AXON will send the required pitchbend settings to the MIDI instrument
after every Program Change command. If your MIDI instrument stores the pitchbend range globally, set this
value to OFF.

it will no longer be possible to select AXON presets via MIDI IN. Naturally, you will still be able to select the

Tune Base
(-99 to +99) Unit: cent, corresponds to 1/100 semitone
All MIDI notes generated by your AXON are based
on a reference tuning of 440 Hz, plus or minus a deviation determined by this parameter. If you are playing
with musicians using instruments that are difficult to tune, such as a piano, you can adjust your AXON to the
situation. We recommend the following procedure when using a reference frequency other than 440 Hz: start
by carefully tuning the open A string to the reference instrument by ear.
Next, press the ENTER button. "PICK THE OPEN A STRING" will now appear on the display.
