1. MODE SELECT BUTTONS: These buttons take you to the different modes of the Fusion. If
you're already in a mode and press the button again, you will be returned to the "top level" of
that mode.
Use these buttons to switch into Mix, Program, Song, Sampler, Mixer, or Global modes.
2. SOFT BUTTONS: These buttons allow you to access different parts of the Fusion's user
interface. SOFT BUTTONS correspond to on-screen parameters that are displayed along the
right and left sides of the display.
Wheel), you will see Program, Synth, Mod, Arp, Effects, and Utility positioned along the left
side of the display. The SOFT BUTTONS along the left access these tabs. Similarly, the right
SOFT BUTTONS will access functions arranged along the right of each page.
3. CONTRAST: This knob allows you to adjust the contrast of the Fusion's LCD screen.
4. CATEGORY and BANK: The CATEGORY button accesses the Fusion's "sound librarian"
mode. This mode allows you to view your programs (or mixes if you are in MIX mode) sorted
by category. For example, when you're in PROGRAM mode, the Category button brings up a
screen that lists programs contained within that category. This mode should make it easier to
find a particular program you're looking for.
The BANK buttons allow you to cycle through the different banks of programs that are stored
on the Fusion.
5. QUICK ACCESS BUTTONS: The Fusion provides twenty-four QUICK ACCESS buttons
(arranged in three rows of eight) for easy access to your sounds. The top sixteen of these
buttons are labeled A through P whereas the remaining eight buttons (bottom row) are
numbered 1 through 8. This gives you access to all 128 sounds that can be stored in a bank
(since 16 * 8 = 128). Once you're familiar with the sounds you like on the Fusion, you can call
them up directly from Program mode using these shortcut keys. For example, you can access
the Grand Piano (program A-1) by pressing "A" and "1."
