QWERTY Searching on the Patch List Screen
On Page 4 of the Power User Control Fantom-G Workshop booklet, we
introduced QWERTY searching, a valuable tool you should certainly take
advantage of in the Patch List window.
Previewing Patches and Rhythm Sets
When you're looking for patches and rhythm sets on the Patch List screen,
the Fantom-G's Preview feature lets you audition each sound before
committing to its selection. To audition a patch or rhythm set, highlight it
and then hold down F7 (Preview).
By default, the Preview feature's set to play a musically appropriate phrase
for the currently selected patch or rhythm set.
Customizing the Preview Feature
If a musical phrase isn't the way you want to check out your sounds, you can
change the way Preview works. Here's how:
Press the MENU button, and then click F2 (System).
