Playing in Patch Mode

Transpose

changes keyboard pitch in units of semitones.

This function is useful when you play transposed instruments such
as trumpet or clarinet following a printed score.

*

Transpose applies only to the keyboard part.

1.

Press [PATCH/RHYTHM] to access the Patch Play screen.

2.

Press [F7 (Part Kbd)] to move the cursor to the keyboard
part.

3.

Press [F6] to switch the Patch Play screen.

4.

Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to “Trans.”

fig.05-013

5.

Either turn the VALUE dial or use [INC]/[DEC] to adjust the
Transpose setting (G–F#: -5–+6 semitones).

There is a single Transpose setting (Setup parameter) for the
entire Fantom-X. The changed setting will be remembered even
if you switch patches or performances.

If you assign “Transpose Up” “Transpose Down” as a function

to be controlled by the realtime assignable switches ([

]/

[

]), you can easily change the Transpose by pressing these

buttons (p. 125).

Since a patch is a combination of up to four tones, you can switch
unwanted (tones out of the four) off and get just the sound of a
specific tone.

1.

Press [PATCH/RHYTHM] to access the Patch Play screen.

2.

Press [F7 (Part Kbd)] or [F8 (Part Pad)] to move the cursor
to the pad part or the keyboard part.

3.

Press [F5 (Tone Sw/Sel)].

fig.05-014_50

4.

Press [F1 (Tone Sw)]/[F4 (Tone Sw)] to turn each tone on/
off. The setting will switch on/off each time you press the
button.

5.

Press [EXIT] to close the window.

If you want just one or two tones to sound in a patch, turn the
others off and store that setting on a patch. This cuts
nonessential use of the Fantom-X’s simultaneous voices.

When using a patch for a naturally monophonic instrument such as
sax or flute, it is effective to play in mono.

1.

Press [PATCH/RHYTHM] to access the Patch Play screen.

2.

Press [F7 (Part Kbd)] to move the cursor to the keyboard
part.

3.

Press [PATCH EDIT] to access the Patch Edit screen.

4.

Press [F1 (

)] or [F2 (

)] to select the “Solo/Porta” tab.

A screen like the one shown below appears.

fig.05-015_50

5.

Press

or

to move the cursor to “MONO (Solo)/

Poly.”

6.

Turn the VALUE dial or press [DEC] to select “MONO.”

Now you can play in mono mode.

If you assign “Mono/Poly” as a function to be controlled by the

assignable switch ([

]/[

]), you can easily switch

between mono/poly by pressing a button (p. 125).
