3.1.2 Drawbar Mode

Drawbar mode is a quick method of reversing the direction of the nine sliders on your Axiom 49 or 61. If you are controlling an

instrument that makes use of drawbars rather than faders—the MB-3 electric organ on Key Rig for example—then you should

use drawbar mode.

The Drawbar function is not available on the 25-note version.

Press Data 3 and Chan Assign together to enable Drawbar mode. When Drawbar mode is active, this will be indicated by the

Drawbar symbol in the LCD display.

The status of Drawbar mode can be saved in any of the 20 memory locations. It will also be saved when you power down your

Axiom.

NOTE: It is possible to reverse the direction of any control on your Axiom 25, 49 or 61, by switching the minimum and maximum

limits for the controller (for example: min=127 and max=0; refer to the previous section for details on how to do this).
