Sampler Mode
When you’re ready to create your own custom instruments or sound effects, Sampler
mode is where you’ll need to go. All sampling and waveform editing takes place here.
Pressing Edit when you’re in Sampler mode and you’ll see the all the layering and
editing capabilities of the Fusion found within the Multi, Zone, Sample, Process, and
Utility tabs along the left side of the display.
Once you’re done creating your new instrument, you can load it up and play it just like
any other program in Program mode.
Mixer Mode
Mixer Mode has been created so you can conveniently mix your synthesizer and
audio tracks together on one screen. The mixer is only accessible when you are in
Mix and Song which are the only modes in which you can have multiple programs or
audio tracks to mix together. Program or Sampler modes only play one instrument at
a time and do not need a Mixer (because you have nothing to mix)
The mixer lets you set levels and pan positions for each synth and audio track. You
can also set send levels, and mute or solo tracks just like on a hardware mixer.
Global Mode
Global mode lets you set parameters that affect all areas of the Fusion. Things like
MIDI transmit channel, master tuning, and keyboard velocity scaling can be found
here.
The SETTINGS tab lets you modify various keyboard, MIDI, and controller related
settings, while the ITEM tab lets you open, load, move, or delete different items found
on your Fusion (items include programs, mixes, songs, samples, multisamples, and
arpeggiation patterns). The MEDIA tab gives you information about the hard drive
and Compact Flash cards and allows you to format these devices. The SYSTEM tab
lets you view and update the current system information.
