FAMC LF+ and FAS Axe-Fx II Real-Time Sync Tutorial
Hey Everyone! I wrote up a quick tutorial on how to setup a LF+ with an Axe-Fx II, so it will sync in real-time similar to the way Total Sync works with the FAS MFC-101. Hopefully this will provide a much better LF+ OOBE.
NOTE: BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES, BACKUP YOUR LF+ & Axe-Fx II!!!!!!
I bought my LF+ PRO+ in December 2014 and really struggled with it bc it came with firmware v4.10 but the manual was from v1.68, which was very outdated and missing lots of info. If you're new to programming a LF+, make sure to do all programming in the LF+ Editor and don't even attempt to program it from the unit. The 2 things that will help you understand the concept a little better are:
1. The Foot Switches are called Buttons
2. You select what each button does by editing the Functions on the Page tab in the LF+ Editor. I was super confused before I figured this out and kept messing with the Preset tab bc that's how I had always programmed other MIDI foot controllers.
I plan to add more to this tutorial as time permits but it walks you through how to:
Backup the LF+ and Axe-Fx II
Sync IA's in Real-Time and show their names on the button displays
Sync Preset names in Real-Time and show their names on the main display and button displays by either pressing a LF+ button or turning the Axe-Fx II Value knob.
Here is the link to my Dropbox shared folder and it contains a Tutorial and my LF+ PRO+ sysex file:

Please let me know if I need to make any changes.
Also, I need to thank forum member Voes for sharing his knowledge and awesome website: Liquid-Foot +
