Saving a Song as an SMF
File (Save as SMF)
When you save data in SMF format, the sound setup data will
not be saved. In order to ensure that the correct sounds are
played, you must record the appropriate bank select and
program numbers (p. 144).
If you assign a file name that is identical to one already existing
in the user area or the memory card, a message of “File “****”
Already Exists! Over Write OK?” will ask you for confirmation
when you attempt to save the file. If it is OK to overwrite the
existing file, press [F6 (EXEC)]. If you decide not to save the file,
press [F5 (CANCEL)].
If you attempt to save data to a memory card that was not
formatted on the Fantom-Xa, a message of “Unformatted!” (the
memory card has not been formatted) will appear. Please
format the memory card on the Fantom-Xa (p. 205).
