Overview of the Fantom-X
The Sampling section samples (records) external sounds from an
audio device or mic as digital data. Sampled sounds can be played as
a patch or rhythm set. You can also import WAV/AIFF format files
and use them in the same way.
Samples
A sample contains the waveform data sampled by the Fantom-X. In
addition to the actual waveform data itself, a sample also contains
parameters such as start point, loop start, and loop end. The Fantom-
X can hold 9,000 samples.

Multisamples
Two or more samples assigned to the keyboard are collectively
called a
multisample . A multisample is divided into 128 “splits.”
Each split contains the number of a sample in the sample list—it
does not contain the actual sample data itself.
The Fantom-X has 128 internal samples (preset samples), and in
addition can store up to 128 user samples in a separately sold
memory card.
fig.04-012.e
Samples that you record or import are stored in sample memory.
This sample memory is temporary, and its data will be lost when
you turn off the power. If you want to keep these samples, you must
save them to user memory or a memory card.
* You cannot save data to the preset memory.
