Midi Learn and Axe FX FM9

Surefire641

I'm currently using ST3 to control a Fractal Audio Axe FX device by sending preset and scene changes over bluetooth, with a Yamaha MD-BT01 interface. I can send program changes at timestamps fairly well, but cannot seem to get the MIDI Learn function to work anymore. At one point today I was able to turn on the MIDI Learn button, press a footswitch on the Axe FX and the MIDI command would come up on the Edit Lyrics screen. For some reason now I can send MIDI to the Axe FX but nothing happens when I use MIDI learn, it just states it is waiting for MIDI messages. I'm also unable to send CC messages to the Axe FX. Anyone have any insight or a similar problem?

Make sure the Axe FX is setup to send via MIDI out. Just yesterday I also wondered why I did not receive any MIDI data from my Yamaha MODX and the reason was that the MODX was setup to send MIDI only through USB. After switching to MIDI it did work just fine.

Thanks! Program changes are working fine, still no luck with CC.

Surefire641 I don’t know if It works for you, bu you can try to send the 2 cc messages, first to activate the CC and the second one 0.3 seconds after to deactivate, something like this

Midi@00:00.10: CC54.127@1
Midi@00:00.40: CC54.0@1

I have the Yamaha MD-BT01 and a headrush and if I don’t send the second message it recognized as a press and hold.

Hope it works
