Creating a Rhythm Set
 
With the Fantom-XR, you have total control over a wide variety of 
settings. Each item that can be set is known as a 
 
parameter
 
. This 
chapter explains the procedures used in creating rhythm sets, and 
the functions of the rhythm set parameters.
 
The included Fantom-X editor lets you edit the Fantom-XR’s 
settings from your computer in a convenient graphical 
environment (p. 163).
Start with an existing rhythm set and edit it to create a new rhythm 
set. Rhythm sets are created from a collection of multiple rhythm 
tones (percussion instruments). You can change the assignments of 
the rhythm tones for each key with rhythm set edit.
The rhythm tone assigned to each key consists of up to four waves. 
Rhythm tones and waves are related in the same way that patches 
and tones are related.
Rhythm Set editing is done in the Rhythm Edit Menu screen. The 
Rhythm Edit Menu screen is organized as follows.

If you do not wish to save changes, press [EXIT] to return to the 
Patch Play screen.
If you return to the Patch Play screen without saving, the 
indication “E” is displayed in the upper right of the Patch Play 
screen. This “E” indication disappears when you save the patch 
to the Fantom-XR’s internal user memory or to the memory 
card.
 
If you turn off the power or select a different sound while the 
display indicates “E,” your edited patch will be lost.
