Performance Panel Description
The Fusion’s Performance Panel has several real-time controllers (wheels,
knobs, buttons, and switches) that you can assign to perform a variety of
tasks. These controllers let you tweak sounds in real-time as you play for
maximum expression and sonic control.
The Performance Panel’s components consist of the following:
1. PITCH BEND WHEEL: This wheel lets you raise or lower the
pitch of your program during a performance. Push this wheel forward
to raise the pitch and pull it back toward you to lower the pitch. The
wheel is spring loaded and will snap back to normal once you let go.
You can change the pitch bend range on a per-program basis in the
Program/Pitch page under the Program menu. See “Pitch Bend Range”
parameter on page 41 for more about this.
2. MODULATION WHEEL: The mod wheel can be assigned to
control a variety of parameters including vibrato, tremolo, FM amount,
etc. This wheel is usually mapped to vibrato as a default, but it is
possible to map it to almost anything on the Fusion.
Use the modulation matrix to map the mod wheel. See page 236 for
more about the modulation matrix.
3. PERFORMANCE GRID: The Performance Grid lets you assign
what your four Control Knobs do (see section 6 for more on the Control
Knobs). By having four “rows,” of functions, the knobs can actually
control up to 16 different parameters. You can easily tell what row is
selected because the active row is brightly lit whereas the other rows
remain dimmed. The ARP, FILTER, EQ, and ASSIGN buttons (see
below) are used to select your active row.
