FB-01 CONTROLLER INFO The FB-01 Controller is a desk accessory designed to allow you complete control over your Yamaha FB-01 synthesizer, even from within your favorite (GEM) sequencer. It also is a patch librarian, and allows you to save your favorite FB-01 configurations to disk! No more time wasted trying to reconfigure the "mix" you spent so much time setting. No more 16 configuration limit! You'll be able to restore any setup in seconds---even from within your sequencer! You'll also be to change your configuration names without reverting to the use of an editing program. At only $49.95, this is one accessory the FB-01 owner won't want to be without! The disk should contain the following files: FB01DEMO.ACC FB01DEMO.RSC DESKTOP.INF READTHIS.TXT (this file)! Both the FB01DEMO.ACC and FB01DEMO.RSC files must be in the main directory of your boot disk in order to work! Although DESKTOP.INF is not required, you must be in either High or Medium Resolution for the program to run. The program is activated by clicking on the "FB-01 DEMO" entry of the "Desk" menu. Alternately, you may open the accessory by simultaneously holding the ALT + LEFT SHIFT + CONTROL keys. Once opened, a dialog box will fill the screen with the DEMO control panel! The first time you open the accessory, it will attempt to initialize by retrieving the RAM in the FB-01 (Voices in BANKS 1 & 2, etc...) This will only be successful if the MIDI OUT on the FB-01 is connected to the MIDI IN on the ST. Be sure the ST MIDI out port is connected to the FB-01 MIDI IN port! If you have a master MIDI keyboard, you may connect it to the ST MIDI in: a software thru is supplied by the program to allow you the ability to play the MIDI keyboard and still control the FB-01 from your Atari ST! This setup should only be used after the initialization is successfully completed! Be sure to set the SYSTEM # to match the SYSTEM ch# on the FB-01 or nothing will work! To change a parameter, simply point to the up or down arrows on either side and click with the left mouse button! Clicking on the parameter value will reset it to the default value. You may change patches by clicking on the patch name! To test a patch, click the right mouse button. When using the right button to play a note, you can increase the velocity by clicking further on the right side of the screen, and play a higher note by clicking higher on the screen! The demo disables the following features: 1) Loading, saving & storing of patches and configurations. 2) All parts except PART #1. 3) All configurations except ROM (#17 - #20).
