I'm thinking about the Axe yet again. One of the things I got tired of with my other modelers was menu diving, especially for tweaking basic amp and stomp parameters. Perusing the Axe manual, I see:
"The CTRL page configures the external control capabilities of the Axe-Fx. Each item in the list can be controlled by either of the pedals or by a MIDI continuous controller. To set up the control for an item simply turn the value dial to select the MIDI continuous controller number (or desired pedal) that will control that item."
Question: Can amp and stomp parameters such as gain, bass, treble, level, delay time, or whatever, be tied to MIDI CC's? Could a MIDI control surface, such as:
http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/BCR2000.aspx
which transmits MIDI CC's, be used to do this? Is there a limit to how many CC's could be supported at once? The manual mentions eight controllers, but it's unclear to me what is meant by this.
If it worked, I would rather use something like this for tweaking than having to use a laptop running software.
Just curious at this time ...
