How to Upload / Download patches with the computer Posted by Lars. Sun Mar 18, 2007 2:22 am


This is how you do it with a PC:

1) Download MIDI-OX if you dont already have it: http://www.midiox.com/
2) Start MIDI-OX, and use "Options -> Midi Devices" to select your Midi device input/output (this might pop up automatically the first time you run midiox)
3) Open the sysex window "View -> Sysex..."
4) Select "Sysex -> Receive manual dump" to start listening for a sysex dump
5) On the AxeFx, press the "Utility" button, and use the "Page" button to navigate to the "Preset" page.
6) From here you can either select "Dump Preset to MIDI" (for a single preset) or the various "Dump Bank...." for the banks, press "Enter" to start dumping.
7) MIDI-OX will now receive the preset(s), and you can just use "Display Window -> Save as..." to save it to a .syx file

If you want to send data to the AxeFx, use steps 1-3 and then:
4) "Command Window -> Load file..."
5) "Command Windows -> Send Sysex".

Mac users will need to use the Snoize Sysex tool instead of Midi-Ox. The steps should be very similar but someone with a Mac needs to cover the specifics.


This will be easier with the editor.
