Here are the instructions on programming Peak 2005 FCB8N Midi Controller for AXE FX II (For both Instant Access and Scenes)!!!
I thought people would find this helpful!
To setting to 4Pr mode please do steps below;
1) unplug the FCB8N power
2) Press and hold on C8 button (switch number# 8)
3) Plug in power and wait until the FCB8N boot up
4) Release your finger from the button
Lets call the number of each switch to
C1 C2 C3 C4
C5 C6 C7 C8
P1 P2 P3 P4
Alright, its now ready to go for 4Pr mode by using P1 P2 P3 and P4 button as a preset switch caller and C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 C8 as an instant access button.
Below is an example to change the scenes number for more detail please refer to the AxeII manual http://www.fractalaudio.com/downloads/manuals/axe-fx-2/Axe-Fx-II-Scenes-Mini-Manual-1.02.pdf
Ex.1 lets try to call a scene;
this example will show you how to call a scene of the Axe II
here is what scene number I need the buttons to be
Button C1 = scene 1
Button C2 = scene 2
Button C3 = scene 7
Button C4 = scene 8
Button C5 = nothing
Button C6 = nothing
Button C7 = nothing
Button C8 = nothing
OK, I assigned this control to Bank1-P1 button. Please do steps below;
1) Go to Bank1-P1. The Display will show you Bank1 and the P1 LED will be on.
2) Press Bank up and Bank down buttons and wait until the display shows "Prog" (don't care if the number is moving to other. Just press the two buttons and wait for "Prog")
3) Press "Edit" button to go to programming mode for this preset (Bank1-P1)
4) Enter data below, you can use Inc or Dec button to scroll up/down number or press Prev or Next to see Previous menu or Next menu. To see the current menu please press menu button
P1.CH = oFF (do not send MIDI program change to call Axe preset)
P2.CH= oFF (do not send MIDI program change to call Axe preset)
P3.CH = oFF (do not send MIDI program change to call Axe preset)
CC.CH = 01 (Midi channel#1 to send CC#)
C1.CC = 34 (CC# 34 for calling scene number)
C1.dt = 00 (CC value 0 for calling scene# 1)
C2.CC = 34 (CC# 34 for calling scene number)
C2.dt = 01 (CC value 1 for calling scene# 2)
C3.CC = 34 (CC# 34 for calling scene number)
C3.dt = 06 (CC value 6 for calling scene# 7)
C4.CC = 34 (CC# 34 for calling scene number)
C4.dt = 07 (CC value 7 for calling scene# 8)
C5.CC = oFF (do not send MIDI CC)
C6.CC = oFF (do not send MIDI CC)
C7.CC = oFF (do not send MIDI CC)
C8.CC = oFF (do not send MIDI CC)
5) Press save button. This will be saved and exit to Bank1-P1
