MIDI PC Control Commands 

XTONE can switch to the MIDI PC (Program Change) control commands. If you don

t need MIDI PC to control your effects, please ignore this part. 

 

When your product is not powered on (not connected to any device  or external power), press and hold the Footswitch A and then power on (connect to the 

device) to turn on the XTONE MIDI PC command mode. After the indicator blinks green one time, release the footswitch. The MIDI PC values are as follows: 

 

A group - green 

B group - blue 

C group - red

MIDI Specification 

Most of the APP has a MIDI control function. To make the foot switch and expression pedal control 

the APP, you need to specify their functions in the APP’s 

MIDI control function list. 

Take BIAS FX as an example to explain how to specify MIDI function, and other software effects refer to this please. 

MIDI Specification of BIAS FX on iOS: 

Example 1 - Switch Presets 

 

Open BIAS FX, go to Settings, enter MIDI Setup, click MIDI Control Assignments, and click Add New Control Assignment.
