Everything you need to use Axion.
Concise, technical, no condescending hand-holds. If a workflow isn't clear, tell us. Docs are a feature.
Connecting an audio interface
USB / Thunderbolt setup, sample-rate selection, and what to do when your browser asks for permission.
Axion Bridge
Windows native low-latency mode: download the helper, start it, connect from Axion, and understand the beta caveats.
Loading a NAM model
Drag-and-drop, file structure, troubleshooting captures that won't load, and which formats Axion supports.
Importing from TONE3000
Connect your TONE3000 account and pull captures straight in: picker, sizes, license/attribution, and how references travel. Free.
Setting up MIDI bindings
WebMIDI permissions, learn-mode mapping, 14-bit CC, expression-pedal calibration, per-preset overrides.
Building your first preset
Signal-flow basics, naming conventions, when to use fixed-position effects, and how to save without losing work.
Axion Desktop
Install the native Windows / macOS app, pick a low-latency driver (ASIO / CoreAudio), and unlock Pro on the machine.
The Axion plugin (VST3 / CLAP)
Install the plugin where your DAW scans, activate it via shared entitlement, on Windows or macOS. Plus the current no-MIDI note.
Browser compatibility
Which browsers run Axion, why latency differs by browser and OS, mobile headroom, and when to reach for Bridge or Desktop.
Sharing a preset
How axion.cab/preset/<slug> links work, who can see what, and how to revoke.
Cloud sync & storage
What Axion Cloud adds on top of Pro: preset sync across machines, version history, a private gallery, and NAM cloud storage.
Recording your performance
Sample-accurate capture to WAV, stem export, post-amp routing, and bouncing direct-DI alongside.
Hotkey reference
Every keyboard binding, default shortcuts, and how to remap them. Includes printable cheat sheet.
Audio troubleshooting
Crackle, dropouts, latency creep, "why is my interface missing?" Common fixes, organised by symptom.
Stereo output & wet/dry parallel
What the master STEREO toggle reshapes, how the Dry knob saves your high-gain tone, and the Auto-Pan pedal as a stereo-mode reality check.
Multitrack looper
Four stereo tracks with freewheeling or metronome-locked sync, overdub with undo, audio-file load, and per-track WAV export.
