Value Description
1–20 This adjusts the contrast/brightness of the display. Higher values will make
the characters darker.
OFF, ON Specifies whether the preset samples will be loaded into memory at power-on
(ON) or not (OFF).
OFF, ON Specifies whether the samples of the user area and memory card will be load-
ed into memory at power-on (ON) or not (OFF).

be in when it is powered up.

Value Description
MASTER, SLAVE Specifies the synchronization message that the Fantom-XR will use for oper-
ation.
MASTER:
SLAVE:
5–300 Sets the system tempo.
* When Sync Mode is set to "SLAVE," the tempo will synchronize to the clock
messages received from an external MIDI device, so the tempo value will be
ignored.
* The tempo value is not saved even if you save the System settings.
OFF, ON Specify whether the system tempo will change (ON), or will not change (OFF)
when you switch performance.
Value Description
17–32 When you want to transmit or receive System Exclusive messages, set this
parameter to match the Device ID number of the other MIDI device.
1–16, OFF Performance Ctrl Ch selects the MIDI receive channel used during switching of
performances when MIDI messages (Program Change/Bank Select) are sent
from an external MIDI device. Set this to "OFF" if performances are not to be
switched from an external MIDI device.
If only a program change is received, and if the Performance Ctrl Ch
parameter setting coincides with the MIDI receive channel of a part,
priority will be given to switching the performance.
1–16 Specifies the channel used to receive MIDI messages in Patch mode.
The Fantom-XR will be in Patch mode when you turn on
the power.
The Fantom-XR will be in Performance mode when you
turn on the power.
The Fantom-XR will be the master. Choose this setting when
using the Fantom-XR by itself without synchronizing to
another device.
The Fantom-XR will be the slave. Choose this setting when
you want the Fantom-XR to synchronize to MIDI Clock
messages received from another MIDI device.
