Here's a new release for the GT. This one fine tunes Axe-Fx 3 support and fixes the broken Axe-Fx 1/2 support.
SPECIAL AXE-FX III NOTES
- Works best with Axe-Fx 1.18 beta or later
- The recommended device settings when working with an Axe-Fx III are now:
- Direct Send: OFF
- Send Redundant PC: OFF
- Poll State: ON
- Ignore Incoming CC / Ignore Incoming PC: OFF
These are now the defaults when setting up a new GT. These should give the best results in most cases, although certain special cases will require different settings.
- In order to see the Poll State option in the Devices tab, you may need to set your device to a different type, like "Axe-Fx II", then set it back to "Axe-Fx III". You should only have to do this once.
FEATURES
BUG FIXES
- "Poll State" setting for the Axe-Fx III makes the GT query the Axe-Fx's state periodically so that any changes in the Axe-Fx or Axe-Edit will show up on the GT. This will work for effect block bypass and channels. If you also have "Ignore Incoming PC" turned off, it will also track preset and scene changes from the Axe-Fx and Axe-Edit.
NOTES / KNOWN ISSUES
- Fixed broken Axe-Fx I and II support
- Fixed Remote Mode when using an Axe-Fx III
- Fixed double flashes when Calc Tempo From Flashes is active
- Allow non-Cycle buttons to properly sync with effect block channels
- Fixed problem with IA Cycle buttons
- Fixed issue with controlling the higher numbered Axe-Fx III effect blocks.
- Fixed scene handing when "Direct Send' is turned off
TO UPDATE FIRMWARE:
- If your GT presets are selecting both presets and scenes on the Axe-Fx (such as when using Get Preset Names / Create Songs), you will see it switch to scene 1, then to the desired scene every time you move to a new Axe-Fx preset. This is something I'm trying to work on with Fractal.
PLEASE DON'T DO A MAJOR FIRMWARE UPDATE RIGHT BEFORE YOUR BIG GIG!
- First, back up your settings to a flash drive or computer! If you go back to 4.1 or earlier, your GT will factory reset.
- Download and unzip the firmware file.
- Copy the file to a USB flash drive, and remove any other .rjf files from the flash drive.
- Eject the drive from your computer.
- Power on the Mastermind GT while holding the 1 and 3 buttons.
- Keep holding until you see "Mastermind GT Bootloader" appear on the screen.
- Now plug the flash drive into your GT. The update should begin and will take a few minutes to complete.
