adding knob to volumen of one layer

[iwerica]

hy. is it possible to create mix of piano and strings, and then assign one knob to control only volume of string layer? if it is, can someone tell me how to do it

Your question is a bit confusing: do you want full instruction on how to create a mix, or do you just want to know about the volume control thing. If you want to control the volume of any part in a mix while playing, you can use the Mixer page (press the Mixer button , select the section with the part that you want and use the corresponding knob).

i know how to create mix. for example, i create mix called piano/string and when i play that mix i want to change volume of string. on korg i could easy assign one knob to control volume of one layer.is it possible with fusion?

Well the Mixer page exists exactly for that, i.e. controlling the volume (and some other things) of each part/layer/channel/track (whichever name you want to use), just one button press away.

But you can also assign a knob for that purpose so that it works in the Mix mode page, it just is not that straightforward. The Mix mode uses all the knobs to control all the programs in the enabled parts, as per each program's assignments (but you can block this for selected parts in Mix:edit/Part/Controls, see reference manual p. 109, unfortunately individual knobs cannot be blocked, only all 4 at once). So you have to assign the knob in the desired program's mod matrix, and then make sure that that knob is not assigned to anything in the other programs that your mix contains (unless of course you want the knob to simultaneously control things in the other programs). But with the Fusion it is so easy to save new copies of the programs (where you have assigned the knobs as you like) for use in your mix, so that this shouldn't be a problem.

In Program mode: Push the Edit button, assign Piano to OSC1, set Volume to 127, and assign Strings to OSC 2, but set this Volume to 0. Then select the Mod page and assign a Control Knob to OSC2 Volume and set amount +99. Save the Program.
