It's come to my attention that there is a workaround for selecting scenes on the Axe-Fx III using the Midi Commander and the Axe-Fx III PC mapping feature. I'll try do a a video on how to set it up in the next week. However, having the ability to send CC numbers and values would still make life so much easier and be a far less cumbersome workaround.
Can you set in custom mode individually each switch for every bank? Example, if I want the switch 1 in bank 1 to be a preset, but in the bank 2 if I want that same switch to be a toggle switch for an effect. Is that possible? Thanks for the video!
Great video! Wondering if you are going to do that follow up video to do a deep dive with setting this up on either the Axe-FX 111 or ideally the FM3? Would be great to show how to set it up to change presets, change scenes and turn effects on/off. Thanks in Advance!
Stock the top buttons are CC# 6-9 and stupidly the 2nd expression pedal delivers CC# 7 just like button 2. I gotta go thru setup mode and see if I can change it to 5 (1st exp pedal sends #4). I'm using this with HX Stomp and gsp1101 together. Button 1 is drive, 2 is flanger, 3 is reverb/delay and 4 switches my loops from left/right on my 1101 to change preamps between my 800 and Engl copy preamp. When I set up my 3 exp pedals on dirty patches its gonna be Wah Whammy and the 3rd one going into the HX to control whatever weird parameters I like. On my clean channels the 3 exp pedals control Univibe mix, Shimmer intensity (taking it from just a regular reverb to shimmer) and the 3rd varies. Options lol
Best explanation of CC and PC I've heard, thank you. I wish somebody had included a clear explanation like that in the manual, the first time I tried to program a Ground Control.
fantastic video it helped me figure out how to change my rigs with the kemper profiler.. I'm interested in learning more using the midi commander with kemper profiler if possible.
I've been thinking of these units to control my Marshall JMP1 and TC Electronic G Major 2..... Happy to see that the custom mode can be made to do what I need (ie program changes on all eight foot switches). Thanks, dude!
Leon... Can you do a video of the Axe FX III and the midi Commander?. I haven't seen a video on UA-cam that goes in detail about how to control the AXE FX lll with other alternatives, like these one.
@@LeonTodd P.S. 2: I'm sorry. I have just watched the end of the video and there you answered my question. NO SCENE CONTROL yet. What a bummer. My Midi Commander it's on the way... (And I'm a scene more than a preset guy😑)
@@juegoperfecto there is a workaround - the Axe-Fx III has PC mapping so you can set it up to change scenes. Bit cumbersome but it will work. Will do vid next week on it.
ON THIS PEDAL OR ANY OTHER MIDI PEDAL YOU KNOW OF CAN YOU HAVE FOOTSWITCH 1 BE A KEMPER DISTORTION AND FOOTSWITCH 2 BE WAVES DELAY VST PLUGIN AND USE THEM BOTH TOGETHER - DAW IS REAPER
Just want to second the request for an in depth tutorial for Midi Commander controlling Axe FX (I still use the 2 XL) without the FC-6. Also, best guitar channel on UA-cam..seriously....content is relevant, videos are only as long as they need to be, and your tones are less subjective and more genuine to the gear you are showcasing. Very informative channel for all levels. Good on ya.
Hi could you please do a video on how to use this midi commander with Amplitube 5 and how to get the rigs you save on it with delay on and off and over drive all that and amp rig changing other rigs also Fx positive grid. So these two amps software put whatever they have on the midi controller. Meloaudio but how do I and we save it like you have here in others. Please show in a new video for Amplitube 5 and fx positive grid. So we can load the midi with the pedal and amp rigs. We choose. Thanks and will it long term save memory? Our choices ?
what a fantastic little sucker this is...good price too! Is this something that would be a good match to go with the FM3 for instance? Quick unrelated question mate...have enjoyed your vids on setting up fx in the AXEFX, namely the ones using delay. However, as I'm on AXEFX 2, it doesn't have the capabilities of say, the Multi tap (or whatever its called lol). Do you have a vid showcasing some of your delay settings in the 2..like the multi or megatap that we have in the 2? These can be quite complex to set up, and after watching your one recently about setting up the multi delay in the 3, I was hoping you'd have a similar for us 2 fellas. Cheers bro.
Bought two, use one to start my coffee, open my security doors, alarm stray cats and dogs, turn on my washer dryer, program certain house lights on and off, control security cameras, program voice commands passing by pedestrians, Gud Mrng?
Great video! Would love a follow up video on how to use with the axe fx 3. They came out with a firmware update that apparently allows you to switch between scenes but they do not tell you how to do so help would be appreciated.
Hi Leon! Thanks for the video! I am seriously considering to buying this controller to use it to modify pluggins settings and do DAW operations like play/stop/rec… etc. but I have a couple of questions I would really appreciatte if you could help me with. 1: Is it posible to reassign the “presets switch” buttons as whatever you want to? I mean, I am thinking on having 8 buttons to control my Neural Dsp plugin for example, or having 1-4 to control the plugin and A-D to DAW comands. 2: I saw in another video that if you assign one footswitch to any CC number this will not change if I change the bank??? For example, can´t I have in Bank 1, footswitches 1 -4 for playback controls and footswitches A-B to control plugins controls, and in Bank 2 other comands in the same footswitches??? Do you know what I mean? If this is correct it would be really dissapointing in my opinion. Thanks for your time!
Hey, could you shine light on the midi commander and h9 freeze setup I think I can figure out most of the other functions but can’t find how to map the freeze function on the h9 midi settings nor know what CC or PC I should set a button to have it freeze
sadly 2 and a half years later meloaudio still hasnt made the cc value feature possible instead they release half baked layouts...it's a shame cause this is an awsome device in every other aspect
Thx great vid! Can you do a vid using the midi commander to toggle or enable different tracks in a DAW (each track with a different sim and fx chain) for a live computer rig? Trying to set this up myself currently.
Just be aware that MeloAudio released a new firmware update that addresses some bugs and issues BUT also removes the footswitch toggle function. They made a comment in the release notes that most midi host devices can specify toggle mode for incoming midi commands but if your device doesn't, you're out of luck and there is no way of reverting back to the old firmware. Hopefully, they will bring back the toggle function in another firmware update.
Loved your video. Yes! Tutorial needed!,,, for Custom mode. I just need to know how to make all 8 buttons (or even 10) to control presets only for my Boss SY200. Or, 8 buttons for presets then up and down for banking; is this even possible. If not I’m returning it. Pls let me know.
OK! so good news I found out how to do this. On the website forum of the Midi Commander. The issue was that I could not change from CC to PC for switches 1-4, it seemed like there was a glitch!. But, after digging through the forum someone said, "To get 8 switches to work as presets also with the bank up and down 1. go into custom mode. 2. Change the x8 (instead of x4)--this is the 2nd or third option to control how many presets are present. 3. Go to each of the numbers e.g. 1,2, 3, 4, and change CC to PC. 3. Restart, then you'll have 8 presents to quickly go to: 1-4 and A-D, also with banking too. I will use my Boss Syn200 to reorganize my presets so I get my most used presets from presets 1-8, then 9-16. have fun
Hi Leon! Do you use any expression pedal with the Midi Controller? Just wanted to know what actually is compatible with it and what not, before buying an expression pedal. The Melo Audio's own ones seem to be out of stock. Would really appreciate any input from your side.
Hey, does anyone know how to get the midi commander to interface with DfuSe Demo so that I can upgrade the firmware and use the proper scenes control? The software isn't detecting the midi commander on Win 10 or 11 and the manual doesn't tell you crap!
Can you help with sending PC messages from this controller? I can only send CC's. In the CUS1 setup, when I set any of the footswitches to send a PC, and go to the next footswitch setting, the footswitch I just assigned switches to CC??? I can't get an answer from anyone who uses this controller. Any ideas?? I'm using the Headrush MX5 and have enabled PC's, matched the MIDI channels and assigned a PC number to a specific rig, but something is not working. When I go to a random preset and press the footswitch for my PC, the MX5 does nothing...?
Yes but how to you actually set this up. I have this pedal now and having trouble with it comunicating. Yes I have it in axe mode and have an axe FX II. I'm watching my grid and hitting the buttons and not see the fx engage dude...
Looks like a great cheaper option to expand the FM3... or even to do a FM3 + FC-6 + MeloAudio and get an awesome flexible and expanded rig! You could even go AXE3 + FC-6 + MeloAudio!
For everyone in europe, thomann sells the Harley Benton MP100, which is a reskin of the midicommander! Been using it for a couple weeks now with my axe3, great affordable solution for switching scenes.
I'm using PC messages. on the axe3 its Setup -> MIDI/Remote -> Mapping and then select the preset and scene there. So PC 0 is Preset 10 scene 1 PC 1 is Preset 10 scene 2 etc.

Yo Leon! Itd be nice of you demoed the Midi commander with the Boss Katana. I've searched high and low and theres no one doing this. However I dont doubt it works considering I own the Katana artist, it has a single midi output. But it would be of much appreciation for anyone who is curious! One love!
hi Leon! I don't understand a thing. Can I use the two Up and Down buttons to change from preset to preset? ie not in groups of 4 presets but presets per preset? example: they are on preset 1, I press the Up button and go to preset number 2 of the axis Or the two keys to the right (up and down) only change groups of 4 presets ..?
Hi Leon! I wanted to ask you two things about the Meloaudio foot controller ... I have Ax Fx III and I would like to take it because it is very well reviewed and has an acceptable price. My questions are two .. 1 - So is it possible to change the scenes as you say at the end of the video? 2 - There is no limit to the presets? that is, if I have 30 presets on the Axe, can I have them all in the Pedalboard? or are there limits? Thanks :)
What do you get for the guy who has everything? A MIDI controller. Your jam room looks like an ultimate hang. I think the old preamps had nice voicings, so the Triaxis made my hairs stand up. How can we improve upon MIDI preamps?
One thing is unclear to me. For example: you have preset A and preset B. switch 1 would turn delay on/off. Can you program it so preset A has switch 1 set to OFF and then preset B set switch 1 to ON?
Hey Leon 👍 I was lost after the shift out of the first bank😆. Recently drove from Perth to yanchep to purchase a Brand new VH4 from this old bloke who brings them straight in from Germany. 5000 plus dollars later I have this absolute top of the food chain hi gain beast but does not com with a foot switch of any kind 😫 that’s an extra $789 and is pretty much just a Channel selector. Does this midi switcher have phantom power? and how many pin plug in ? Cheers man🤘😆🤘
Leon Todd cheers for the reply man 👍 if our paths ever cross in the future , I’d have no problem in giving you a shred through the beast that is the vh4. Keep up the killa vids man🤘
Leon, the Midi Commander seems similar to the Morningstar MC6 MKII midi controller; are you familiar with the MC6? I’m a midi newby so I really appreciate this video. Maybe you could do a vid on midi in general for people who need more insight into midi and how it is implemented in devices such as this? Keep up the awesome work, I don’t know when you sleep! 👍
Never tried an MC-6 hands on but it looks a fantastic piece of kit. If I understand correctly it can send the necessary midi changes required to change scenes on the Axe.
Leon Todd Yup, I don’t know a lot about them but it must be quite small, like most of these niche companies, but it’s tech is very deep. Someone like yourself would really appreciate and benefit from all it can do. Morningstar could also benefit from your insight. Looks like a win-win to me.

Based on your experience do you know if this is possible
I want to change 4 channels of my amp (synergy syn 2) which I have managed to achieve via cc changes
I am now trying to get the commander to change presets on my tc electronic m350 fx using program changes
I have my midi cable from the midi commander into my syn 2 and then into my tc m350 via midi through.
I can get the entire system changing amp channells and presets however I have a big gap between presets. If I take the m350 out of the signal chain the commander changed my amp channels seamlessly with no gaps
I have tried changing around the midi so that the amp changing is done by cc changes but then I cannot get the m350 to change using cc commands ?
I’ve selected “omni” on the syn 2
It’s driving me nuts !
Tc manual is rubbish and so is the commander manual
You seem to have got the switching sorted with the h9 - any ideas ?
HI can this change midi on 2 devices ay the same time?? e.g Valeton and midi to TC X3
Could you make a tuto on mapping it in Ableton? Not so straightforward... Thank you.
Will this unit work with a DV Mark Multiamp that sends PC and CC notes? Thanks.

Can you use this midi commander with katana head mkii?
Is there a way to use a specific cc value or is it just 0/127?

cam it change PC on 2 diff devices?
Hey Leon. Can’t you just send a trs out into the FC-6 external switch input and assign that input to “scenes”?
This only has two expression pedal inputs and no TRS outs AFAIK
Leon Todd that’s too bad, it would be a great add on to the FC otherwise. None the less, a great controller anyway
Does it works with a marshall code?
Does it support hold functions on the buttons?
One thing is unclear to me. For example: you have preset A and preset B. switch 1 would turn delay on/off. Can you program it so preset A has switch 1 set to OFF and then preset B set switch 1 to ON?
That depends on whether your modeller/fx unit can save those settings.
@@LeonTodd I have G-Major 2. Hope it does this option :)
Leon, can you setup the 8 switches all to do CC changes (instead of the 4 PC and 4 CC) like it comes by default?
Yeah you can customise each switch in one of the 2 custom modes.
Hey Leon 👍 I was lost after the shift out of the first bank😆. Recently drove from Perth to yanchep to purchase a Brand new VH4 from this old bloke who brings them straight in from Germany. 5000 plus dollars later I have this absolute top of the food chain hi gain beast but does not com with a foot switch of any kind 😫 that’s an extra $789 and is pretty much just a Channel selector. Does this midi switcher have phantom power? and how many pin plug in ? Cheers man🤘😆🤘
5 pin plug but no phantom power. Can run on batteries or USB power.
Far out, i'd love to demo a VH4 one day, nice to know there's one in town!
Leon Todd cheers for the reply man 👍 if our paths ever cross in the future , I’d have no problem in giving you a shred through the beast that is the vh4. Keep up the killa vids man🤘
hello Leon., have You try this device to control NUX MG 300.?
Mg300 only has a USB connection unfortunately, so you'd need another device to transmit midi from this to the NUX USB
@@LeonTodd so do you think its possible..?..does the USB connection in Midi commander wont work to connect with mg 300.?
Leon, the Midi Commander seems similar to the Morningstar MC6 MKII midi controller; are you familiar with the MC6? I’m a midi newby so I really appreciate this video. Maybe you could do a vid on midi in general for people who need more insight into midi and how it is implemented in devices such as this?
Keep up the awesome work, I don’t know when you sleep! 👍
Never tried an MC-6 hands on but it looks a fantastic piece of kit. If I understand correctly it can send the necessary midi changes required to change scenes on the Axe.
Leon Todd Yup, I don’t know a lot about them but it must be quite small, like most of these niche companies, but it’s tech is very deep. Someone like yourself would really appreciate and benefit from all it can do. Morningstar could also benefit from your insight. Looks like a win-win to me.
Does it work with native instruments guitar rig?
Very cool ..👍👍
hey, can you command h9 and hx stomp with midi commander?
The H9 has midi through so it should work.
@@LeonTodd hx stomp also has a midi through... will this work? from the midi commander, to hx stomp midi in, then midi out to h9 midi in?
i really appreciate that you replied. im having troubles :(
Hi Leon, does it work with the Fractal FM3?
The CC messages it can send are rather limited so I'd look for something like an Airstep with the FM3
@@LeonToddThanks for your answer friend, I am just getting acquainted with digital devices and it is difficult to get the feeling of the tube amp and analog pedals out of your head and achieve emulation with the FM3
is this can change fx3's scene?
it can but you need to setup PC to scene mapping in the Axe-Fx itself
Leon Todd thx so much!

Is there momentary midi messages?
same question here
@@roccanto86 the answer is no, I've tried Melo audio, they said they will one day release it in firmware but they said that 2 years ago and now don't respond to messages
@@theinfinate Oohh that's too bad, it this feature was available, it would be a beast of a midi controller for my headrush gigboard. Thanks for your reply
Roberto Canto I know right, this would be perfect for me if it only had that, I am ready to purchase one as soon as they sort that out
