CUSTOM MAPPING PRESETS & SCENES
All preset functions on the FC will honor the settings for “PC Mapping” in the Axe-
Fx III. When PC Mapping is turned ON (see below) the rst 127 preset numbers on the FC
Controller will correspond to the entries of the custom Mapping list in the Axe-Fx III. This is
true for ALL FC Preset functions, whether by number or by position within a bank.
FC presets above #127 are handled as usual when PC Mapping is on.
What is PC Mapping?
The Axe-Fx III includes a feature called “PC Mapping” which allows any incoming MIDI
PC message to be re-mapped to a custom Preset, and optionally, any scene in that
Preset. Normally, the mapping is “1:1”. For example, MIDI Program Change 1 (“PC 1”) normally loads Axe-Fx
III . With PC Mapping on, however, PC 1 might load Preset 2,
Scene 3 instead (or whatever else you set up in the map).
The “PC Mapping” parameter is the “master switch” for the map. It is off by default, meaning the map is
ignored. When you turn it on, incoming MIDI messages are re-mapped. Find PC Mapping on the “General”
tab of Setup | MIDI/Remote on the Axe-Fx III. Find the map itself on the next tab to the right, “Mapping”.
Combined with the “Preset in Bank” switches of the FC, this option serves as a good way to organize a set.
Think of each bank as a Song and arrange the presets in the order you need them.
