Digital Out; Aux Output - Alesis Fusion 6HD Guide D'installation Rapide

As you face the Fusion's rear panel, the right half of the workstation contains the following
connections:
7. FOOT PEDALS: These three inputs allow you to control a variety of functions. EXPRESSION
is the Fusion's continuous controller expression pedal input and can be assigned to control
things like volume or expression.
The FOOTSWITCH input is configurable and enables you to trigger envelopes, LFOs, and
other events with your foot. It is similar to the trigger buttons found on the Performance Panel.
Unlike the EXPRESSION input, the FOOTSWITCH is binary, and is either "on" or "off" with no
range of control in between.
The SUSTAIN input is for a sustain pedal and is commonly used for piano, vibes, and other
instruments. Like the FOOTSWITCH, the SUSTAIN pedal input is either "on" or "off" and there
is no middle ground.
8. MIDI: These are standard 5-pin MIDI connections (In / Out / Thru) for interfacing with
computers, sound modules, and other MIDI equipment.
9. DIGITAL OUT: The Fusion has a coaxial S/PDIF and an optical digital output. The optical
output supports either 2-channel S/PDIF or 8-channel ADAT and can be set through the
Fusion's software. See to the Reference Manual for more about this output.
10. AUX OUTPUT: The AUX OUTPUTS provide you with a second pair of analog outputs in
addition to your MAIN OUTPUT (see below). This is useful because it allows you to route
programs to a totally separate set of outputs on the keyboard. For example, you may want to
play a piano/bass split, but EQ and compress each program differently using your favorite
outboard EQs and compressors. No problem. Just route either one of the programs to the
AUX OUTPUT and you can treat your two sounds totally independently.
