The Triaxis v2.0 will accept Control Change messages but the parameters that can be changed are the "knobs" and they are intended to be controlled with an expression pedal. The channels (Rhythm, Lead1, Lead2) cannot be changed using Control Change messages. Loading Triaxis presets will have to be done with the Ground Control Pro presets.

You could get a MIDI Solutions Event Processor ($129). It will map MIDI CC to MIDI PC. The triaxis probably needs MIDI PC messages to change channels - just program the Event Processor to convert whatever MIDI CC is being sent from the GCP to the correct PC for the triaxis.
