Creating a Rhythm Set
The sounds of the Fantom-G are based on complex PCM waveforms,
and if you attempt to make settings that are contrary to the type of
the original waveform, the results will not be as you expect.
The internal waveforms of the Fantom-G fall into the following two
groups.
One-shot:
These waveforms contain sounds that have short
decays. A one-shot waveform records the initial rise
and fall of the sound. Some of the Fantom-G’s one-
shot waveforms are sounds that are complete in
themselves, such as percussive instrument sounds.
The Fantom-G also contains many other one-shot
waveforms that are elements of other sounds. These
include attack components such as piano-hammer
sounds and guitar fret noises.
Looped:
These waveforms include sounds with long decays
as well as sustained sounds. Loop waveforms
repeatedly play back (loop) the portion of the
waveform after the sound has reached a relatively
steady state. The Fantom-G’s looped waveforms also
include components of other sounds, such as piano-
string resonant vibrations and the hollow sounds of
brass instruments.
Cautions When Using a One-shot
Waveform
It is not possible to use the envelope to modify a one-shot waveform
to create a decay that is longer than the original waveform, or to turn
it into a sustaining sound. If you were to program such an envelope,
you would be attempting to shape a portion of the sound that simply
doesn’t exist, and the envelope would have no effect.
Cautions When Using a Loop
Waveform
With many acoustic instruments such as piano and sax, extreme
timbral changes occur during the first few moments of each note.
This initial attack is what defines much of the instrument’s character.
For such waveforms, it is best to use the complex tonal changes of
the attack portion of the waveform just as they are, and to use the
envelope only to modify the decay portion. If you attempt to use the
envelope to modify the attack portion as well, the characteristics of
the original waveform may prevent you from getting the sound that
you intend.
The settings you edit are temporary, and will be lost if you turn off
the power, switch the sound generator mode, or select a different
sound. If you want to keep the modified sound, you must save it in
the user bank.
When you edit the rhythm set settings, the “ ” symbol will appear
in the Single Play screen. When you save the rhythm set, the “ ”
symbol will disappear.
When you perform the save procedure, the data that previously
occupied the save destination will be lost.
1.
Make sure that the Rhythm Set you wish to save is selected.
2.
Press [WRITE].
The WRITE MENU window appears.
3.
Select “Patch / Rhythm / Sample Set.”
Press or to select “Patch / Rhythm / Sample Set,” and
then press [F8 (Select)].
The Rhythm Set Name window appears.
fig.07-006_50
4.
Assign a name to the rhythm set.
For details on assigning names, refer to
“Assigning a Name”
(p. 42).
5.
When you have finished inputting the name, press [F8 (OK)].
A screen will appear, allowing you to select the write-
destination rhythm set.
