Roland Fantom Xa Features Manual page 9

2. Make sure Track 1 is selected as shown above—its REC box
will be blackened, and "Rec Track TRK 1" will be displayed
above the tracks area on the display.
You can quickly select Track 1 by pressing its PART/TRACK button as
described earlier.
3. Press F5 (EDIT) to display the Track Edit window.
4. Press 6 or turn the VALUE dial to highlight Extract, and
press F6 (SELECT) to display the Extract parameters.
5. Turn the VALUE dial and use the 5 and 6 buttons to set
the Extract parameters as follows:
• Src Track/Pattern—Set this to Track 1, since that's
where all of your data is.
• Ch/Part—Set this to ALL (Ch1-Ch16) so that the MIDI
data for all of the SMF's MIDI channels gets extracted
from Track 1.
• Measure—Set this to 0001, for Measure 1, so that the
extraction starts at the beginning of Measure 1, the
top of the song.
• For—Set this to ALL so that the extraction includes all
of the song's measures.
• Dst Track/Pattern—Set this to TRK ALL. With this setting,
the data on MIDI Channels 1-16 will be extracted to
Tracks 1-16, respectively.
• Extract Mode—Leave this set to REPLACE, so that
extracted data replaces anything already on the
destination tracks. (When you're extracting a newly
loaded Type 0 SMF, there probably isn't anything
already on any of the other tracks, except for Track 1 in
any event.)
Don't worry about destroying your original SMF data, which is already
on Track 1. The Fantom-Xa is smart about this—when you're done, Track
1 will contain only the data for MIDI Channel 1, with all of the other
channels' data safely extracted to other tracks.
• Status—Set this parameter to ALL, so that all types of
MIDI data in the SMF get extracted.
• Range Min Range Max—These parameters are inactive
when Status is set to ALL.
6. Press F6 (EXEC).
7. When the Fantom-Xa asks if you're sure you want to
proceed, press F6 (EXEC) again to turn your single-track
SMF into a multitrack SMF.
Choosing New Sounds
The best way to select a new sound for an SMF's part/track is
to start from the PART VIEW patch screen, which we showed
you earlier.
1. Press LAYER/SPLIT, and then F2 (PART VIEW).
2. Use 6 and 5 to select the part whose patch or rhythm set
you'd like to change.
