4. Export Song to a MIDI file
Songs in the Fusion can now be exported to a MIDI song file. Press the "Utility"
menu in Song Edit mode and then press the "SongUtil" page. Upon pressing the
"ExpSong" button, a browse window will allow you to select a location for the
MIDI file to be created in. The current song will be exported to a MIDI song file
at the selected location. Note that only synth MIDI tracks will be exported to this
MIDI song file.
5. Export all audio tracks
To expedite the exporting of audio tracks a new feature has been added to export
all audio tracks at once. This option is available on the "TrackUtil" page within
Song Mode's "Utility" menu.
6. Record ready mode
The Fusion can now enter recording as a MIDI slave device. To do this press the
[RECORD] button on the Fusion. The [RECORD] button will light and the
[PLAY] button will blink. In this mode the Fusion will enter recoding if it
receives a MIDI start message or if [PLAY] is pressed on the Fusion.
7. A new parameter has been added to the arpeggiator menu: "Use part range". This
parameter, once enabled, will only play notes if they fall within a part's define
key and alternate ranges. This is useful when you are creating a drum kit in Mix
Mode and want a drum pattern to play over multiple parts. Playing a key in the
mix O-6 "VA FM PM PCM Kit" in the mix bank "SPLIT-LAYER" demonstrates
the usefulness of this new parameter.
8. The "Track Enable" parameter has been moved to the Track/General page in Song
Mode and to the Part/General page in Mix Mode.
We found that the Track/General and Part/General pages are more logical places
to put this parameter since you can see the program (or audio track) name that you
are enabling/disabling.
