Live Performance Tip: QuickPlay
Once you've got your SMFs saved as songs in user or card
memory, you can play any of them without having to actually
load any songs into the Fantom-Xa by using the QuickPlay
feature. Onstage, you can simply fire off one after another in
the desired order.

To QuickPlay a song:
1. Press the SONG EDIT↔LIST button once or twice to display
the SONG LIST screen.
2. Use 6 and 5 or the VALUE dial to highlight the desired
song.
3. Press Play to begin playback. To stop the song, hit Stop.
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for any songs you want to play.
Exporting SMFs
Should you wish to export one of your Fantom-Xa songs as an
SMF for someone else to use, you can. Here's how:
1. Press the SONG EDIT↔LIST button once or twice to display
the SONG EDIT screen.
2. Press F3 (UTILITY).
3. Press F5 (SAVE AS SMF).
4. Finish naming and saving the SMF file just as you would
any Fantom-Xa song as described earlier.
When you save a song as an SMF, the song's performance is not saved with
its recorded data. When the song is loaded anywhere, its sounds won't be
automatically selected, nor will its other settings unless you've specifically
inserted MIDI Bank Select messages, Program Change messages, and so
on into its tracks. This is why we recommend saving songs as song files
on the Fantom-Xa—song files automatically include and reload all of this
important information.
