Playing Pad Samples

The FANTOM can audio-record (sample) the sound of your
keyboard performance or an audio input such as an audio
device or mic. You can press the pads to record the recorded
pad samples.

Pressing Pads to Play Pad Samples

Here we explain how to use pads [1]–[16] to play sampled
sounds (the sample pad function).
Before you continue, select "SAMPLE PAD" as the pad function
as described in "Assigning Convenient Functions to the Pads
(PAD MODE)" (p. 104).
1 .
Press a pad [1]–[16].
The pad sample plays.
You can also press multiple pads simultaneously to play them.
Since an unlit pad contains no pad sample, pressing it will not
produce sound.
MEMO
The number of samples that can play back simultaneously is a
maximum of eight for mono samples and a maximum of four for
stereo samples.
Sustaining the Pad Sample Playback
1 .
While you hold down a pad, press the [HOLD]
button.
The pad sample continues playing even after you take your finger off
the pad. To stop the pad sample, press the pad once again.
MEMO
The hold function is available only for samples whose "GATE"
parameter is turned on (p. 99).
If the sound won't stop?!
Rapidly press the [HOLD] button four times in succession. This
stops all sounds being played by the pads.

Switching Banks

The pad samples are assigned to four banks that each contain
16 samples. By switching banks, you can change the pad
samples that are assigned to each pad.
1 .
Press the [BANK] button.
The PAD BANK screen appears.
2 .
Press a pad [1]–[4] to select a bank.
(Hold)
The pad number corresponds to the bank number.
When a bank is selected, you automatically return to the
previous screen.
You can also select a bank by directly touching an icon in the PAD
BANK screen.
