Playing in Patch Mode
In Patch mode, you can play percussion instruments from the
keyboard and pad by selecting a rhythm set. As the rhythm tone
assigned to each key and pad varies by the rhythm set selected, you
can play a wide range of percussion instruments.
The Fantom-X has four rhythm set groups, including the User group,
Preset group and GM group, with 32 rhythm sets in the User group,
40 rhythm sets in Preset group, and 9 rhythm sets in GM group.
Rhythm sets can also be saved on a memory card. What’s more, you
can further expand your options by installing up to three optional
Wave Expansion Boards (SRX series; sold separately), enabling you
to select from a large selection of rhythm sets.
USER
This is the group inside the Fantom-X which can be rewritten. The
rhythm sets you create can be stored in this group. The Fantom-X
includes 32 rhythm sets.
PRST (Preset)
This is the group inside the Fantom-X which cannot be rewritten.
However, you can modify the settings of the currently selected
rhythm set, and then save the modified settings in User memory.
The Fantom-X contains 40 preset rhythm sets.
CARD (Memory Card)
This group lets you use patches stored on a memory card inserted in
the rear panel card slot. Since the data in this group can be rewritten,
you can use this group to store patches that you create.
GM (GM2)
This is an internal group of rhythm sets compatible with General
MIDI 2, a system of MIDI function specifications designed to
transcend differences between makers and types of devices; these
rhythm sets cannot be overwritten. Furthermore, settings of
currently selected rhythm sets from this group cannot be changed.
The Fantom-X includes nine preset rhythm sets.
XP-A–D (Wave Expansion Boards installed in
EXP-A–D Slots)
These groups are for when using rhythm sets from a Wave
Expansion Board installed in slots EXP A–D, and cannot be
rewritten. However, you can modify the settings of the currently
selected rhythm set, and then save the modified settings in User
memory and Memory card. The number of onboard rhythm sets
depends on the specific Wave Expansion Boards installed.
A Rhythm Set XP-A–D cannot be accessed if the Wave
Expansion Board (SRX series: sold separately) it belongs to has
not been installed.
