Alesis Fusion affectionately known as "The Beast"
Fusion OS Upgrade & Fusion Screen Dump Information
See attached PDF file for detailed information on how to update the OS from your hard drive and how to create an OS only file from a working Alesis Fusion
1. If you have the OS only file on your hard drive (root directory) you can upgrade the OS from the Hard drive
a. When upgrading from the OS only file from your hard drive you need to select the hard drive as the source not the CF card.
2. If you have a working Fusion you can create a copy of the current OS version in your Fusions ROM (or wherever it resides)
and it will be copied to your hard drive.
a. When creating the OS only file on your hard drive you need to select the hard drive as the destination not the CF card.
Screen shot information
Something else I either forgot or did not realize is that when copying screen dumps (fusion_screen_shots) from the Fusion to your CF card
1. The screen dumps are automatically incremented with file name fusion_screen_shot_001, fusion_screen_shot_002, fusion_screen_shot_003, etc. which is good, But
2. If you remove the CF card to examine the screen shots be sure to save them on your computer before putting the CF card back in the Fusion to take more screen shots because your Fusion will automatically start all over with fusion_screen_shot_001, then fusion_screen_shot_002, etc. and your other previous screen shots will be overwritten
