I'm planning on organizing some patches and getting serious with my live vs. recording patch blocks tonight, and I just realized I only have one MIDI cable. I'll be connecting through my Firestudio Mobile. I haven't used Axe-Edit yet but I figured I was set...

Until I remembered I only have one MIDI cable. :ugh:

Can I go "MIDI out" from the Axe-Fx into the FSM "MIDI In" to dump the state of the Axe-Fx memory bank into my computer, and then after editing a bunch of shit flip the cable to the other channel (FSM Out --> Axe-Fx In) and update my unit with the new patch layout and tweaks I've since built in the Axe-Edit software?

There's also a new firmware version available, though it appears to be very minor.

Your MIDI cable only has one connector on each end?

You cheap fucking douche, buy a fucking rack case, and buy a $12 MIDI cable with both ends on it. :lol:

What the fuck are you talking about, you goddamn hobo? :lol:

Also, I purchased the Rocktron 7-pin MIDI cable for live use, and yes, it's my only MIDI cable (25 feet, pretty well-made):

I did not know there were double MIDI cables... if this is all I need, consider it purchased:

You guys are being morons.

But thank you, Duncan, for clarifying that I do need bi-directional communication for Axe-Edit to work. Since this is not for gigging, I do not require exceptional durability, so I've ordered the "Live Wire" double-headed cable... can't get much cheaper than 3m for $14.

Maybe he's just sour because his $2000 preamp isn't in a rack. :lol:

Did you miss the thread where my rack is unfortunately sized?

Like this one?
