Hi Bernie,


Option 1
I've got my BIAB setup the following way.
Not using a Merge Box.
Midi out of Controller( piano) to Midi In of Edirol. Midi out A of Edirol to Midi in SD2.

BIAB press "ctrl E" Choose "Channels" & set the "Thru" channel to the same midi channel that your Axiom is sending notes on ie in my case I've chosen midi channel 1. So controller keyboard is sending notes on Channel 1, BIAB is relaying these via "Thru". & you should be able to hear what you're playing live. You should also be able to change voices via controller. Make sure the "Dot" is in the "thru" icon, not melody, soloist etc

Option 2
I don't have a midi merge box to try. So not sure if this will work.
Basically you treat the Axiom seperately from the PC ie you use the axiom live, but the sd2 soundsource is being shared between BIAB & Axiom

Connect computer via USB. 2.
"Midi OUT A" Midisport to to Midi IN A of Merge Box.
Merge Box " Midi out/thru? to Midi In SD2.
BIAB Midi setting
( In ) not required
(Out) USB Midisport A

"Midi out" of Axiom to "midi in B" of Merge Box. The midi Out from the merge box has already been dealt with in the PC/BIAB setup.

Again Press control E & check which channels are being used by BIAB,
Pick one that BIAB isn't using & set your Axiom to transmit on an unused channel to the SD2.

As I mentioned, not sure if this will work as I have no way of testing with a merge box.

If the above doesn't work
What in's outs thru's does your axiom & merge box have??
