Creating a Rhythm Set
Rhythm Set Effects Copy (MFX/CHORUS/
REVERB)
The effect settings of a patch, rhythm set, multitimbre, or
performance will be copied to the currently selected rhythm set.
fig.04-05_50
Effect contents that will be copied (Mode)
MFX: Multi-effects settings
CHORUS: Chorus settings
REVERB: Reverb settings
If you want to copy the multi-effect settings of a multitimbre or
performance, select the MFX (MFX-AMFX-C) whose data will be
copied.
Rhythm Tone Copy (KEY)
Individual rhythm tone (percussion sound) settings assigned to each
key will be copied to each key in the current rhythm set.
fig.04-06.e
To specify the currently selected rhythm set as the copy source,
set Source to TEMP.
The copy-source and copy-destination key can also be specified
by pressing a key on the keyboard.
Cautions When Selecting a
Waveform
The sounds of the Fantom are based on complex PCM waveforms,
and if you attempt to make settings that are contrary to the type of
the original waveform, the results will not be as you expect.
The internal waveforms of the Fantom fall into the following two
groups.
One-shot: These waveforms contain sounds that have short decays.
A one-shot waveform records the initial rise and fall of the sound.
Some of the Fantoms one-shot waveforms are sounds that are
complete in themselves, such as percussive instrument sounds. The
Fantom also contains many other one-shot waveforms that are
elements of other sounds. These include attack components such as
piano-hammer sounds and guitar fret noises.
Looped: These waveforms include sounds with long decays as well
as sustained sounds. Loop waveforms repeatedly play back (loop)
the portion of the waveform after the sound has reached a relatively
steady state. The Fantoms looped waveforms also include
components of other sounds, such as piano-string resonant
vibrations and the hollow sounds of brass instruments.

The Compare Function
For the Rhythm Tone Copy and Rhythm Set Effect Copy
operations, you can use the Compare function.
The Compare function allows you to play the copy-source
rhythm set. To do so, press [1 (Compare)] to open the following
window. The copy-source rhythm set can be switched in this
window as well, but it is not possible to select GM group
rhythm sets. After selecting the desired rhythm set, return to the
previous screen by pressing [1 (Copy)].
fig.04-07_50
The Compare function cannot be used with Rhythm Set
Effect Copy if PATCH, MULTITIMBRE or
PERFORMANCE is selected as the copy-source (Source).
The rhythm set auditioned using the Compare function
may sound slightly different than when it is played
normally.
