Default: selected
Back to top

Add To Import List
When an object is dropped on the Fusion Convertor™ icon, this adds it to the internal Import List, which will show when you open the app.
Default: unselected

Each Sample File->Seperate Fusion Program
When converting .wav or AIFF files, this creates a mapped Fusion program for every sample file.
Default: checked
Back to top

All Sample Files->One Fusion Program
When converting WAVE/AIFF files, this creates one mapped Fusion program for all sample files selected to be imported.
Back to top

Range
This is the Range style that WAVE/AIFF files are mapped out in; it can either be White Keys, Black Keys, or Chromatic.
Default: Chromatic
Back to top

Key Amount
This is the amount of keys that a sample file it spread out over; either one key, or spread out across the Key Range.
Default: All Keys
Back to top

Position
This is the method in which the samples are placed on the keyboard.
Default: Left->Right
Back to top

Key Range
This is the key range in which the samples will occupy.
Default: C1-C6 (remember middle C to the Fusion is C3)
Back to top

Program Name
This determines what the Program Names will be when you convert objects into Banks. They can be named after the Enclosing Folder (within the computer structure you are converting them from), titled after the Bank Name, or after the First Sample Encountered (if you are converting single samples).
Default: From Enclosing Folder
Back to top

Bank Name
This determines what the Bank Name will be when you convert objects. They can be named after the Enclosing Folder (within the computer structure you are converting them from), after the First Sample Encountered (if you are converting single samples), or you can be Prompted to title it yourself.
Default: Prompt
Back to top

Program Type
This determines the Fusion Program Type that is created when you convert objects. A Program can either be Multisample (referencing Multisamples which reference Samples, using 4 oscillators able to reference 4 separate Multisamples), or Drum (64 possible oscillators able to reference up to 4 velocity-split samples each).
Default: Multisample
Back to top

Miscellaneous - Remove Items after importing
After an import operation, the Import List will be cleared.
Default: checked
Back to top

Miscellaneous - Write Absolute Paths
Internally, the Fusion writes into its files path references that enable each object to know where each other is.

Normally, Fusion Convertor (and the Fusion itself) writes Relative Paths, which means (for example) “I am Program ‘Trumpet’ in the Bank ‘My Brass Sounds’; I reference Multisample ‘Trumpet Map’ in the Same Bank.’ This means that if you choose to move this Program, it will lose the the reference to the Multisample unless you move the Multisample as well. Absolute Paths enable you to move the Program without having to move everything else.
Default: Unchecked
