Control via MIDI
IDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide 
standard for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic 
musical instruments and computers. When MIDI cables are used to con-
nect two or more MIDI devices, performance data can be exchanged between the 
devices, even if they were made by different manufacturers.
The AX3000B can use MIDI to communicate in the following ways with another 
MIDI device. You can:
• Operate the AX3000B to switch programs on an external MIDI device, or switch 
the AX3000B’s programs from an external MIDI device. 
→“Program change”
• Operate a connected optional foot controller to control an external MIDI device, 
or use an external MIDI device to control the AX3000B’s volume or effects. 
→“Control change”
• Use the Sound Editor to edit parameters. 
→“Parameter change”
• Backup (save) and restore (load) the AX3000B program data. 
→“Backing up 
and restoring program data”
NOTE: In order to do the above things, you need to use a MIDI cable to connect 
the AX3000B and your external MIDI device, and set the MIDI channels appropri-
ately. 
→“Connecting a MIDI device or computer,” “Setting the MIDI channel”
NOTE: If your external MIDI device does not recognize certain types of MIDI mes-
sages, those messages cannot be used for control. Check the “MIDI implementa-
tion chart” of the AX3000B and of your external MIDI device.

If you want to control an external MIDI device from the AX3000B, connect a MIDI 
cable from the AX3000B’s MIDI OUT jack to the MIDI IN jack of your external MIDI 
device
.
If you want to control the AX3000B from a MIDI sequencer or other external MIDI 
device, connect a MIDI cable from your external MIDI device’s MIDI OUT jack to 
the AX3000B’s MIDI IN jack.
When you connect the AX3000B to a MIDI sequencer or sound editor, data will 
normally be sent in both directions, so you will need to connect MIDI cables from 
the AX3000B’s MIDI OUT jack to the external MIDI device’s MIDI IN jack and then 
from the device’s MIDI OUT jack to AX3000B’s MIDI IN jack.

NOTE: You will need a MIDI inter-

puter with AX3000B.
Some MIDI interfaces are not able 
to transmit or receive MIDI exclu-
sive messages correctly.
