Using the Pads
This pad mode allows you to use the pads to play phrases
(Phrase0001–Phrase2000) generated by the Rhythm Pattern function.
With the factory settings, sixteen phrases (rhythm patterns) are
assigned to the pads. You can create your own rhythm patterns and
assign them to the pads, and use the pads as a rhythm machine.
A set of these sixteen phrases is called a “rhythm pattern set.”
1.
Press [PAD MODE], and then press pad [6] (RHYTHM PTN).
2.
Press the pads [1]–[16] to start the rhythm patterns
assigned to each pad.
Pads that can play rhythm patterns will light. The currently-
playing pad will blink.
To stop playback, press the blinking pad.
The rhythm pattern playback tempo will be the same as the song
playback tempo.
1.
Press [TEMPO].
2.
The Tempo window will appear, indicating the current
tempo.
3.
Turn the VALUE dial or use [INC] [DEC] to specify the
tempo value (5.00–300.00). If you hold down [SHIFT] and
turn the VALUE dial you’ll be able to adjust the value below
the decimal point. You can also specify the tempo by
repeatedly pressing [F6 (Tap Tempo)] at the desired tempo
(Tap Tempo function).
If you press [F7 (Click)] to turn it on, the click will sound.
4.
When you’ve finished making settings, press [F8 (Close)].
You can press [PAD SETTING]
to edit the following settings.
For details on editing and
saving, refer to
“Editing the
Pad Settings (PAD
SETTING)”
(p. 190).
In the Pad Setting screen,
you can press [F2 (Pad Exchg)] to exchange two pads (Pad
Exchange, p. 190).
Pressing [F6 (RPS)] switches you to the RPS mode.
Rhythm Pattern Set Number
Selects the rhythm pattern set that the pads will play.
Value:
01–64
Rhythm Pattern Set Numbers are stored on an individual Live/
Studio Set basis. Using
“Rhythm Pattern Set Assign Source”
(p. 292), you can choose to have the Rhythm Pattern Set
Number follow the setting of each Live/Studio Set (TEMP), or
follow the Fantom-G’s global settings (SYS).
Rhythm Pattern
Specifies the phrase that is assigned to each pad 1–16.
Value:
OFF, 0001–2000
Note Number
If the
“Keyboard Mode”
(p. 143) is set to RHYTHM-PTN, you’ll be
able to specify the keys that will play Rhythm Pattern Sets.
Value:
OFF, 21 (A0)–108 (C8)
Move the cursor to the “Note Number” field and press one of
the Fantom-G’s keys to specify the key that will play the
Rhythm Pattern.
Trigger Quantize
Specifies how the phrase will begin playing when you press a pad to
trigger it while the song is playing or being recorded.
Value
REAL:
The phrase will play immediately when you press
the trigger pad.
BEAT:
If you press the trigger pad while the song is playing
or recording, the phrase will begin playing at the
beginning of the next beat.
MEASURE:
If you press the trigger pad while the song is playing
or recording, the phrase will begin playing at the
beginning of the next measure.
The Trigger Quantize parameter is a setting maintained within
each song.
Velocity Sens (Velocity sensitivity)
Turn this “OFF” if you want the phrase to play with the velocities at
which it was recorded.
If you want the velocity of the phrase to vary according to how
strongly you pressed the pad, choose “LOW,” “MID,” or “HIGH.”
Value:
OFF, LOW, MID, HIGH
You can save the pad settings by pressing [F7 (Write)].
