THIS FILE COVERS CHANGES OR OMMISSIONS OF THE PRINTED MANUAL FOR PRISM.
1) Loop recording works a little differently than documented in the manual.
First, you do not need to set the cue point. The loop will always start
at the beginning of the selected region. Second, the loop will NOT
extend one measure after punch-out time, as documented in the manual.
The loop covers only the selected region. After some feedback,
we decided this was a much simpler way to use loop recording.
2) When slaving Prism via MIDI sync to a drum machine or sync box, Prism
will start at the current transport time when a MIDI START is received,
unless the transport was stopped by a MIDI STOP, in which case a MIDI
START will start at the beginning of the pattern. A MIDI CONTINUE will
always continue playing at the current transport time.
3) To use Prism files with TEXTURE, convert your Prism song files using the
"PRSMTOTX.EXE" utility included with Prism. If you are using "The Copyist"
from Dr. T's, you will need to first convert Prism files to TEXTURE format,
and then use the Copyist's internal conversion program to convert the
TEXTURE song file to Copyist format.
4) Texture pattern files created at a timebase other than 96 will not load
correctly, unless you have already loaded a Texture SONG file with the
same timebase. Timebases other than 96 are not officially supported.
5) Prism allows you to use an interupt other than 2 for your MIDI interface.
For example, some Commodore AT clones have the mouse interupt hardwired
to 2. You would need to change the MIDI interface to an unused interupt
(usually 5 for AT's and 3 for PC's), and tell Prism that you are using
that interupt. To use interupt 5, for example, run Prism by typing:
Prism -I5
To run Prism with a different interupt, and also specify a file to load,
type:
Prism -I5 filename
Not all MIDI interfaces have the capability to select a different interupt.
Check with that manual for your interface.
