 =====Modified MIDI-MERGE Box=====
 The modification shown below is necessary to allow the MFC and Axe to communicate with each other. Without this mod, the Tuner, Tap Tempo and Patch names will not be displayed on the MFC. The Axe's midi IN port is actually bi-directional, you will need to connect midi ports 1&3 on either the IN1 in IN2 sockets (your choice) to the 1&3 pins on the OUT port of the merge box to make them talk to each other correctly.

-'''NOTE:''' There are limitations with the method below. While you CAN use both AxeEdit and the MFC-101 with the Axe, they DO NOT talk to each other. They act as separate midi controllers attached to the AxeFx. In other words, switching to another preset using the MFC does not cause AxeEdit to display that new preset. Conversely, switching to a new preset in AxeEdit does not change the active patch on the MFC. And, changing state (ON/OFF) of an effect block in AxeEdit does not change the LED color of that IA on the MFC either.
