The Axe-Fx III provides additional ways to transmit MIDI messages. You can have the III transmit a MIDI PC through MIDI OUT with each preset change automatically. The [[FC-6 and FC-12 controllers]] can initiate MIDI commands using Control Switches. Incoming MIDI can be routed through the MIDI THRU port.

About the Scene MIDI block

This block lets you send up to eight CC or PC MIDI messages through the MIDI OUT port upon a scene change, through different MIDI channels if needed. The MIDI messages can vary per scene.

The block must be added to the grid to use, but does not have to be connected to the signal chain. it can't be bypassed, but a scene can be configured to send no MIDI messages.

You can use the Scene MIDI block to send MIDI commands to the device itself, by connecting MIDI OUT to MIDI IN.

The Scene MIDI block doesn't support Global blocks.
