The Fantom-G Recording Studio
The Fantom-G features its own 152-track recording studio, with 128 MIDI
tracks and 24 audio tracks. Let’s start exploring it by listening to the factory
demo songs.
Playing the Factory Demo Songs
Press the SONG button in the LIST/EDIT area to display 1
the Song Play screen.
This screen shows your song’s tracks—where a session starts.
You’re seeing the tracks of the demo song we’re about to listen to.
However, since we’ve been doing other things since powering up, we’ll
reload the song to make sure it plays correctly. The demo songs contain
special data they send to the Fantom-G as they load, or at power-up.
(Your own songs won’t require reloading to play correctly.)
The Fantom-G plays a single song at a time, though each project can
hold up to 50 songs—we’ll explain projects in the Saving Your Work
on the Fantom-G Workshop booklet.
Press F1 (Song List) to display this project’s songs.
