Hi All.
There is at least one other thread here talking about "invalid" MIDI messages seen on a mac from the Axe. I think I am having the same issue. I just wanted to know if anyone has been successful at using the Axe as a MIDI interface on MacOS. Specifically for using other MIDI controllers down the chain.
For instance, I have tried connecting either a keyboard to the AxeFX or the MFC-101 to send notes and general control change messages respectively. In both cases Midi Monitor reports "invalid" messages. The messages themselves seem to have the right data - weather it be the notes / velocity / or the CC# but I cannot get the midi data into a DAW.
I can get another midi device - but it would be more convenient if I can use the Axe.
Here is some information about my setup:

AxeFX Midi Settings:

Connections:
- MFC --cat5-- AxeFx -- usb --MacBook
- MFC FW: 3.08
- AxeFX FW: Q7b2
AxeFX Midi Settings:
- Midi Thru = off
- Also tried this on - but it didn't seem to make a difference. I think having this on duplicated some messages
- USB Adaptor Mode = on
- Send realtime SysEx = off
- All other midi settings default I believe.
- IA switch 1:
- AxeFX function off
- CC #1
- Channel #1
- off = 0
- on = 127
- IA switch 2:
- AxeFX function off
- CC #2
- Channel #1
- off = 0
- on = 127
- Everything else default
