Troubleshooting
Effects not applied.
Check the following points.
The “MFX,” “CHO,” “REV” or “MASTER” effect switches
located in the upper part of the PLAY screen may have been
turned off.
Press [EFFECTS]/[F6 (SWITCH)] to turn them on.
Are the various effect settings correct? (p. 157)
If the send level of each effect is set to 0, the effect will not be
applied. Check the settings.
Even with send levels to each effect set at 0, effects are not
applied if the Multi-effects Output Level, the Chorus Level, or
the Reverb Level is set to 0. Check each setting.
If Output Assign is set to other than “MFX,” the Multi-effects
sound will not be output.
If Output Assign is set to “PATCH” for each Part of the
Performance, the sound will be output according to the Output
Assign settings of the Patch (for each Tone) which is assigned to
those Parts. This means that if Output Assign for the Patch
(each Tone) is set to other than “MFX,” the Multi-effects sound
will not be output.
The Modulation or other controller is always on.
Check the Matrix Controller settings (p. 49).
The Fantom-Xa allows you to use the Matrix Control to control
Patches in real time. The Matrix Control functions as the control
source for the Control Change and other MIDI messages
received by the Fantom-Xa, and makes changes to the various
Patch parameters based on these messages.
Depending on these settings, the Fantom-Xa may be responding
to MIDI messages sent from external MIDI devices, and may
result the Patches sounding different than intended.
Raising the chorus or reverb send level for each part of a
performance still does not cause the effect to be applied
sufficiently.
Although you can make Send level settings to the Chorus and
Reverb for each individual Part in a Performance, these values
only set the upper limit of the Chorus and Reverb Send levels
for the Patch used. Accordingly, even when the value is set to
the maximum of 127, if the Send level is lowered in the Patch
being used, there will be no effect. In addition, different Patch
Chorus and Reverb Send level settings can be used according to
whether or not the multi-effects are used.
Using the Matrix Control or other such means to control the
LFO results in noise when the Pan is changed suddenly.
Lower the change in speed (LFO Rate).
Due to the specialized processing used for the Pan, which alters
the volume level in each of the left and right sides, sudden Pan
movements causing rapid changes in these levels creates large
changes in volume, and noise from this may be audible as a
result.
Multi-effect 43: TAP DELAY or other delay time value is set to
the note, and then the tempo is slowed down, does the delay
time not change beyond a fixed length?
Such Delay time settings have an upper limit, so if the upper
limit of a value set to the note is exceeded when the tempo is
retarded, that upper value cannot rise any further. The upper
time limit for each is the maximum value that can be set other
than the numerical value for the beat.
The Performance sounds different than when it was written.
Check the following points.
If you have modified the settings of a patch used by a
performance, or if the temporary patch of the performance has
been modified by an external MIDI device, these patches must
also be saved.
If patches used by a performance have been edited when you
write that performance, the Fantom-Xa will display a message
asking whether you want to discard these patches. In such
cases, first save the patch (p. 37) or rhythm set (p. 57), and then
save the performance (p. 72) again.
The Mastering Effect settings may have changed. (These
settings are not stored as part of a performance.)
Patches sound different than when written.
Check the following points.
The write operation cannot be used to save Patches as changed
in Patch mode using Control Change messages from an external
MIDI device.
The Mastering Effect settings may have changed. (These
settings are not stored as part of a patch.)
The Arpeggio and D Beam controller settings in the
Performance are different than those for the Patch.
Since the Fantom-Xa stores arpeggio and D Beam controller
settings for each performance, it will operate according to the
arpeggio and D Beam controller settings that were specified for
each performance.
