Axiom Pro User Guide
Parameter: Drawbar
Value Range: Off, On
This parameter engages Drawbar Mode. When this mode is engaged, the operation of the sliders
is reversed and the maximum MIDI CC value (127) is reached when the slider is at the bottom
whereas the minimum CC value (0) is reached when the slider is pushed to the top. This operation
mimics the behavior of typical organs with draw bars.
Parameter: NullMode
Value Range: Off, On
When this parameter is set to its default “on” position, the MIDI output of the sliders is muted if the
physical slider is out-of-sync with the “expected” position of the slider shown on the LCD display.

Unsynchronized sliders feature a horizontal line across the LCD display’s on-screen fader

that
represents its expected position. A square represents the location of the physical slider

. Once
the square moves over the line, the physical and on-screen sliders are synchronized

and that
slider begins to output MIDI data once again.
1. Your DAW (or Virtual
Instrument) is expecting
the slider to be in this
position.
2. This is the actual
position of the
hardware slider on
Axiom Pro.
3. Once the hardware
slider passes over
the “expected” slider
position, the slider
becomes synchronized
and linked.

When this parameter is set to “off,” the horizontal line representing the “expected” slider position does not appear.
Note that the values of the Sliders are remembered each time a patch change occurs. When that patch next becomes
active, the values are restored.
