Main Features
Cutting-edge sound engine that
unifies audio and MIDI
The Fantom-XR inherits the same sound engine that was acclaimed
on the Fantom-X6/X7/X8, unifying synthesizer and sampler into a
single sound generator. Sampled waveforms and waveforms
imported from a PC or other external source can also be used as
synthesizer waveforms.
In addition to the internal sounds and sampled waveforms, you can
install up to six SRX-series wave expansion boards for instant access
to an even broader range of sounds.
Top-class 128-voice polyphony
An ample 128 voices of polyphony guarantees stress-free music
production or live performance.
Highest quality 88-note
multisampled piano waveforms
The Fantom-XR features an 88-note multisampled piano
painstakingly recorded by professional engineers. Every note has
been sampled in stereo with four velocity-switched layers, meaning
that a lavish 704 samples are used to create this piano sound. It
boasts not only tonal quality but also a high level of presence,
making it closer than ever to the “real thing.”
The internal waveform memory is the same 128 MB as in the
Fantom-X6/X7/X8. It adds a wide range of sounds created with an
emphasis on quality, including strings, nylon string guitar, drums,
and bass, as well as piano.
* 88-note multisampling is used only for the piano waveform.
Full-fledged sampler
In addition to sampling and resampling functionality, waveform
editing is also provided, delivering functionality that rivals
dedicated samplers. There’s also an Auto Sync function that can
automatically match the length of a measure to the current tempo.
16 MB of sampling memory is provided as standard, and you can
install expansion DIMM modules to expand this to as much as 528
MB.
A full complement of interfaces
USB connector for connection to your computer
USB-MIDI support allows data to be exchanged with your computer,
and also makes it easy to connect with PC tools.
For connection to audio devices, both analog and digital input and
output are provided as standard. When sampling, you can select
either analog or digital as the source.
There’s also a PC card slot for backing up your data. This allows you
a broad choice of media including SmartMedia and Compact Flash,
and since media capacities up to 1 GB are supported (when using
Compact Flash), you have great flexibility in data transfer.
Mastering functionality
78 different multi-effects, chorus, and reverb are provided. Since the
mastering effects that are indispensable as the final step of the music
production process are also provided, you can create songs with a
level of quality that approaches a commercially released CD.
160 x 48 pixel graphic LCD
The Fantom-XR’s compact chassis features a large screen that allows
detailed graphic display, ensuring excellent visibility. Whether
selecting sounds or editing waveforms, the built-in screen lets you
work comfortably.
Fantom-X Editor/Librarian included
The included editor and librarian software lets you edit and manage
Fantom-XR sounds from your computer.
