appears when the song’s loaded into the Fantom-X.

between letters and numbers. Press F2 (Delete) to remove the character
at the underline’s current location. Press F3 (Insert) to create a space for
selecting a new character at the underline’s current location.

which the song file is to be saved.
8. Press F8 (Save).
9. The Fantom-X asks if you’re sure you want to proceed.

Songs and Standard MIDI Files
Save a song as a Standard MIDI File, or “SMF,” if you’d like to:
• work on the song in a MIDI sequencing program—installed
on your computer. SMFs can be loaded into and played by
most modern MIDI sequencing programs.
• play the song in an external SMF player.
Transfer SMF files to an external device via USB as described in the
Fantom-X Owner’s Manual, or from a Fantom-X memory card by inserting
the card into a card reader attached to the external device.
When you save a song as an SMF, the SMF includes only
the song’s recorded MIDI data. It doesn’t include the song’s
performance, patches or System settings. Therefore, saving a
song as an SMF mostly makes sense when you want to work
on or play the song in an external device. If you plan to use the
song only in the Fantom-X, save it as a Fantom-X song file.
