Version 1.02
1. General MIDI Compatibility Mode
General MIDI compatibility has now been added to ensure that your “General
MIDI compatible” sequences will play back correctly. To turn on this mode, go
to the Global/Settings/MIDI page and check the “General MIDI” parameter.
Note that engaging this option will automatically take you to a mix called “MIDI
Template.” This mix is pre-configured to be compatible with all General MIDI
compatible sequences. Uncheck the “General MIDI” box to turn off this mode.
2. Quick Boot Up
If you primarily work in only one mode (i.e., Program, Sampler, Mix, etc.) you
can now turn on your Fusion very quickly by setting the “Load Programs on
Power Up” parameter to “Last Mode Only.” This loads the mode and only the
program(s) that you were using before turning off the Fusion—no programs from
any other modes are loaded on start up. This makes booting up your Fusion much
faster.
By default, this parameter is set to “All modes.” This means that all programs for
all modes are loaded on startup. This configuration makes initial boot up slower,
but you can change modes without having to wait for programs to load.
3. The BANK Buttons now change the currently viewed part (Mix mode) or track
(Song mode) by 8 when you’ve set the “(Edit) [1]-[8]” parameter (on the
Global/Settings/Options page) to “Enable/Disable.” In this configuration, the [1]
through [8] buttons let you enable/disable mix parts or song tracks.
This has been done so that you can jump around and enable/disable your mix
parts or song tracks quickly.
4. Two new parameters have been added in the Global/Settings/MIDI page:
“Receive Sequence Control” and “Transmit Sequence Control.” These
commands let you enable or disable whether the Fusion’s sequencer will transmit
or respond to MIDI commands involving the sequencer.
Previously, this parameter was always enabled. Now, you have the option of
enabling or disabling as you require.
5. You can now set a song length in the Song/Song/General page.
6. Arpeggiation pattern lengths are now stored along with the arpeggiation pattern.
