Introduction HyperControl Mode allows your Axiom AIR 25, Axiom AIR 49, or Axiom AIR 61 to communicate with your digital audio workstation (DAW). We've mapped the keyboard's controls so you can easily use it to control some of the most frequently used software features. This means you can use Axiom AIR keyboard's knobs, buttons, etc. to affect transport (stop, play, record), mixing controls (faders and panning), and virtual instrument or signal processing plug-in parameters.
Operation Each section of hardware controls operates independently of the others, allowing you to use some controls in HyperControl Mode while using others in their standard operation.
Faders Important: Only Axiom AIR 49 and Axiom AIR 61 have the eight faders described in this section. All three keyboards, however, have a master fader. In both modes, the master fader will control your Cubase session's master volume level. HyperControl Mix Mode: Press the Mix functions in HyperControl Mix Mode: button next to the faders to switch them between two • Volume: In this mode, the Mix button will be lit red.
Fader Buttons Important: Only Axiom AIR 49 and Axiom AIR 61 have the eight fader buttons described in this section. All three keyboards, however, have a master fader button, which serves an identical function but for your Cubase session's master track rather than for a particular track. On Axiom AIR 49 and Axiom AIR 61, press the Mode button (next to the fader buttons) to cycle through the four modes described below.
Knobs HyperControl Mix Mode: Press the Mix functions in HyperControl Mix Mode: button next to the knobs to switch them between three • Volume: In this mode, the knobs and Mix button will be lit red. The eight knobs will control the volume levels of the eight tracks of the current bank. Use the left or right directional buttons (when they are in Track Select Mode) to select another bank. • Insert: In this mode, the knobs and Mix button will be lit amber.
Transport Controls Axiom AIR's transport controls allow you to perform the following operations in your Cubase session: • Play: Press Play to start playback. • Stop: Press Stop to stop recording or playback. • Record: Press Record to start recording on all record-enabled tracks. • Rewind: Press Rewind to move the audio pointer's current position backward. Press it again to stop it. • Fast Forward: Press Fast Forward to move the audio pointer's current position forward. Press it again to stop it.
Directional Buttons HyperControl Mode: Press the button next to the directional buttons to put them in HyperControl Mode. In this mode, use the directional buttons to navigate around highlighted controls, virtual instruments, or plug-ins. Inst/FX Mode: Press the Inst/FX button next to the directional buttons to put them in Inst/FX Mode.
Pads The keyboard's pads have no HyperControl functions in Cubase.
