Q: How can I adjust the response of the Axiom's rotary encoder knobs?
A: There are three acceleration curves (C1-3) which define the relationship between how fast you turn the endless encoder and the value increment/decrement that is sent out. It is also possible to turn the acceleration curve OFF so that regardless of how quickly or slowly you turn the dial, the value will only increment/decrement by 1 per step. Turning the acceleration curve off is useful if you are performing adjustments that require fine tuning.
To turn the acceleration curve off, set the curve to 0. Curve settings 1-3 get progressively more sensitive to movements of the dial. So, if you are going to be performing a lot of large, fast controller sweeps, you should select acceleration curve 3. The curve selected by default is 2 which we advise for general use, in performing both large and small sweeps.
To select the acceleration curve:
49- and 61-note versions:
- Press Mute and Program together to access the Accel Curve setting.
- The LCD display will show the currently assigned acceleration curve.
- Use the numeric keypad or the -/+ buttons to select an acceleration curve in the range 0 to 3. The 0 setting will
turn the curve off.
25-note version:
- Press the Advanced button.
- Press the Curve key 3 times.
- The LCD display will show “En” on the small 2-digit display to indicate that you have selected to edit the endless dial’s acceleration curve. The currently assigned acceleration curve will show on the larger, 3-digit display.
- Use the numeric data entry keys, or the -/+ buttons to select an acceleration curve in the range 0 to 3. The 0 setting will turn the curve off.
- Press the Enter key to confirm.
