Introduction
Axon introduces an Audio Damage original: the Neuron Sequencer. A radical departure from traditional x0xor MPD-style sequencers, the Neuron Sequencer generates rhythms and melodies with a network of
interconnected nodes called neurons. Each neuron has a flexible but simple to use FM-based synthesizer
capable of generating electronic percussion sounds and metallic tones. Axon includes an internal mixer for
setting the relative levels and stereo positions of these seven synthesizers. The mixer also feeds a stereo
delay and a pair of filters, both drawn from Audio Damage’s highly regarded effects plug-ins. Axon’s neurons
also transmit MIDI note messages so you can use Axon to drive your favorite hardware or software
synthesizers, sample players, etc. Axon can receive MIDI note messages and be used as a software
synthesizer without using its internal sequencer.
If You Don’t Like To Read Manuals
We understand. You just got a shiny new plug-in and you’d really rather play with it than read some dull
exposition about it. Go ahead, then—install it, load it up, flip through the presets, move some of the controls
around. Axon comes with a healthy assortment of built-in presets that will provide instant gratification and
keep you amused for quite some time.
However, eventually you may find that it’s not entirely clear exactly what’s going on. Hexagons blink, sounds
happen, beats emerge, but how? When you’re ready to learn about how Axon does what it does, come back to
this manual and read on.
System Requirements
To use Axon, you'll need a Steinberg VST-compatible host application which conforms to the VST 2.0
specifications, and a computer capable of running it. For the Audio Unit version of Axon, you’ll need an
application capable of hosting Audio Unit plug-ins, and an Apple computer with an Intel CPU capable of
running it.
We support the use of Axon under Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, or Windows 7; and Apple OS X version 10.5
or newer.
Installation
Double-click the Axon Installer icon, and follow the instructions. During the installation process the installer
will ask you to enter your registration code. Your registration code uniquely identifies your purchase, and you
will need it if you need to reinstall your plug-in (for example, after upgrading to a new computer). You can
retrieve your code from your account at the Audio Damage website if you misplace it. Please don’t share your
code with your friends. We’re delighted if you like our products so much that you want to share them, but
please ask your friends to buy their own copy so that we can keep making new products.
On OS X, the installer installs both the AudioUnit and VST versions of Axon by default. If you click the
Customize button you can choose to not install one of these formats. If you’re running a 64-bit version of
Windows, you can choose to install either a 32- or 64-bit version of Axon, or both.
To un-install from OS X, simply delete the plug-in from your VST folder, which is usually located at
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/, and your AudioUnits folder, which is located at /Library/Audio/PlugIns/Components/. To un-install from Windows, delete the file named Axon.dll from your VST folder(s).
What’s New in Version 1.1
Version 1.1 includes the following improvements:
Multiple outputs
Each of Axon’s synthesizers now has a separate output bus so that you can process the sounds
individually with your host software’s mixer.
New synchronization mode
Axon now optionally resets all of its node counters to zero when you stop your host software’s
transport, to provide more predictable alignment with other tracks.
Fewer Bugs
Timing problems when using Logic have been corrected, and an obscure issue with automation has
been removed.
Operation
The following screen shot shows Axon’s user interface. The controls are described in the following paragraphs.
