GCP + Axe FX II 10 Presets

[redline2593]

Hey all,
Sorry if this has been asked already, but I can't find a good answer. I have my GCP set up to control my Axe FX II with the 10 presets/bank mode.
I have the IA buttons set up as is below. Is there no way to edit those per preset? When I go to edit all I can do is change the patch number on the Fractal. Am I missing something?? I'd like to be able to press edit on any particular preset on the GCP and be able to change my tap tempo or turn on or off specific FX instead of making new presets or scenes for every banked preset.

Thanks in advance.

1 - Drive
2 - Chorus
3 - Flange
4 - Phaser
5 - Tremolo
6 - Delay
7 - Multi-tap delay
8 - Tap tempo

What you're trying to do there cannot be done. In 10-Presets/Bank mode there are no Instant Access buttons because all buttons are used to recall presets.

If you want to use Instant Access buttons as you've described, you need to configure your GCPro for 4-Presets/Bank mode. Then you can call up presets using the bottom row of four buttons, and the upper two rows will function as IA buttons. See Pages 14 and 15 in your GCPro Manual.

Hello, I think we may be misunderstanding each other. I am looking to set the IA buttons to be able to press edit and then turn them on/off within the preset (while in edit mode that is). Is that possible?

Edit: just like you'd go in (if using the GCX) and turn on/off which loops come on in a preset.

You did say you're running your GCPro in 10-Presets/Bank mode, did you not? If you aren't, then just ignore me, but if you really are running it in 10-Presets/Bank mode you don't have any Instant Access buttons.

Each of the 10 buttons numbered 1 thru 0 can only call up its respective preset. They cannot act as Instant Access buttons because every button on your GCPro is only capable of performing a single function, and in 10-Presets/Bank mode that function is changing presets. It doesn't matter how you have the individual buttons configured in Edit mode, the only way they can function as Instant Access buttons is if you are in 4-Presets/Bank mode; in 10-Presets/Bank mode they can do nothing but change presets.

Please refer to the section entitled Instant Access on Page 10 of your GCPro Manual, and as mentioned previously, Pages 14 and 15 in your manual cover the differences between 10-Presets/Bank and 4-Presets/Bank modes.

Unless you absolutely, positively need to access 10 presets while performing, try 4-Presets/Bank mode and bring your IA buttons to life. Hey, if you don't like how it works you can always go back.
