Hello,
I am in need of some help setting up a boss ES-8 pedal switcher with the Axe FX.
I have an Axe FX XL, and was switching the presets and scenes via a crocodile tail looper via midi.....
I set this up myself about 18 months ago and recall it being only slightly confusing (I know virtually nothing about midi control..... However I have upgraded my switcher to the Boss ES-8 and now I can’t remember how I set the Axe midi up, and I am now totally confused!
I use pedal switchers rather than the MFC because I sometimes run real pedals before the AXE.
In a nutshell with the Croc tail looper I had 10 banks (or presets) and 7 programs per bank, (or scenes) I had successfully programmed the Croc to be able to go up and down the presets and change scenes - but I only had 7 scenes before I had to change to the next preset...
To do this, I vaguely remember having to go into the Axe front panel menu and manually change values of a particular parameter...... It could have been "Scene Value" or something like this??? I can’t remember, and can not figure out what I did to achieve this the first time 18 months ago, and it's driving me potty!!!
Because the Boss switcher now has the ability to switch all 8 scenes I now need to change the AXE midi values (or whatever it is I need to change)
For e.g currently:-
Preset 4 scene 1 would be 28
Preset 4 scene 2 would be 29
Preset 4 scene 3 would be 30
And so on.......
Preset 4 scene 7 would be 34
Preset 5 scene 1 would be 35
And its this value I need to change, using the above example, because I now need the "scene value" (or whatever its called) of 35 (above) to be calling up preset 4 scene 8 on the axe...
I know the AXE can do this, because I have set this up once before..... But cant remember how I did it!! LOL
Guys....a bit long winded, but I hope someone out there understands me and can put me out of my misery????
