A year is a long time in high-tech and it aint even been that since the Alesis Fusion workstations rolled out at Winter NAMM 04. The keyboards featured an astonishing array of features at this price point – including the Fusion Engine, capable of FM synthesis, Sample playback, Analog emulation and physical modelling, plus hard-disc recording with multiple IO on analog and digital connections. We wont go on, but suggest you check out the stories we posted (and accompanying video) from the NAMM shows (see below). Anyhow, the OS has had an upgrade which adds new sound banks, features and bug fixes. The full details of which follow: OS 1.10 Date: 10/11/05
