So hey everybody, first post here. Mastermind GT coming in a few days and I'm looking forward to seeing what this think can do. But I do have a question about functionality with the Axe-Fx.
Basically, I have an Axe-Fx II Mark II which means it only has two MIDI ports, MIDI In and MIDI Out/Thru. In addition, when you put the Axe-Fx Mark II in MIDI Thru mode, it's supposed to be a bit slower than a traditional MIDI Thru port.
I'd still like to get two way communication between the Axe and the GT, so my solution is to place the Axe-Fx last in the MIDI send chain to keep the Axe-Fx's MIDI Out port free, then connect the Axe-Fx's MIDI Out directly to the GT's Remote In.
So I say all that to ask this... In this wiring configuration, when I press a Scene button on the GT, will all the rest of the IA buttons shown on the GT update to reflect the changes the Scene change makes?
From further down in the thread:
I guess a simpler way to ask my original question is this:
Will the Axe-Fx be able to update the MMGT's IA on/off status buttons if bidirectional communication is OFF, but instead I have a MIDI cable connected from the Axe-Fx's MIDI Out straight to the MMGT's Remote In port?
