Pad Mode 11—Effect Switch
When you're programming sounds, sequencing, recording,
or mixing, the Effect Switch pad mode lets you turn most
the Fantom-G's effect processors on and off with the touch
of a button. (The PFX have their own pad mode, described
next.) When a processor is on, its pad is lit in Effect Switch
mode. To turn off the processor, press its pad so it's unlit.
To switch:
On or off, press:

PFX processor for a patch on or off. In

respectively.

current mode's PFX processors.
Pad Mode 13—Part Select
This pad mode is a killer time-saver when you're working
in Live or Studio modes, especially when you're putting
together or editing a live set or studio set. In the Part Select
pad mode, you can use the pads to quickly select the part
you want to edit. When a part is selected, its pad flashes.

Pads 1-8 select Parts 1-8, respectively.
Studio mode—
Pads 1-16 select Parts 1-16, respectively.
Pad Mode 14—Part Mute
You can use the Part Mute pad mode to quickly mute parts
at any time to make hearing the remaining parts easier.
When a part is muted, its pad flashes. In
Live mode—
Pads 1-8 mute or un-mute Parts 1-8, respectively.
Single mode—
Pad 1 mutes or un-mutes the keyboard part, Pad 7 does
the same for Part 7 (the Single-mode sample-set part), and Pad 10
mutes or un-mutes the rhythm part, Part 10.
Studio mode—
Pads 1-16 mute or un-mute Parts 1-16, respectively.
Pad Mode 15—User Group
The Fantom-G's User Group pad mode allows you to use the
pads to quickly select sounds from User Groups you've set
up. When you select a User Group sound, its pad flashes.
The Power User Control Workshop booklet explains the difference
between User Groups and Favorites and explains how to use
Favorites.
