The Fantom-Xa has two sound generating modes: Patch mode,
Performance mode. You can select the sound generating mode

Xa.

You can play patches together (Layer) or divide the keyboard into
two regions and play different patches in each region (Split).
MIXER screen
Use this screen when you want to mix the sounds by adjusting the
level and pan for each of the 16 parts.
The LAYER screen and MIXER screen provide different views
