5. CONTROL KNOBS: These knobs can be used to control all kinds of parameters within the
Fusion like filter frequencies, resonance, modulation, or even tempo. You can use the Control
Knobs to tweak settings in real-time as you’re playing, giving you limitless creative possibilities.
TIP: The bottom of the Fusion’s display changes depending on what row you have
selected in the Performance Grid. For example, if you select the ARP row, the “virtual knobs”
on the bottom of the screen will say Gate, Velocity, Step Value, and Tempo. If you select
“EQ,” the bottom of the screen will change to Low, Low-Mid, High-Mid, and High.
When you turn a knob, you’ll notice the on-screen knob changes accordingly.
6. ARP On/Off, S1, S2: The ARP On/Off (Arpeggiator) button engages and disengages the
Fusion’s arpeggiator. The S1 and S2 buttons are assignable ON/OFF switches that can be set
to affect all kinds of functions within the Fusion such as filters or effects sends.
The Arpeggiator section is covered in more detail later in this guide. See the Reference
Manual for more on the S1 and S2 buttons.
7. TRIGGER 1 – 4: These four assignable buttons can trigger LFOs, envelopes, and many other
functions. Unlike the S1 and S2 switches described above, these trigger buttons are only
active when you are holding them down—once you release the triggers they become inactive.
See the Reference manual for more on how to assign these buttons.
8. MASTER VOLUME: This is the Fusion’s master volume control.
