Issues Related to Wave Expansion 
Boards
How many types of wave expansion boards 
can be installed?
You can install two SRX series boards and one SR-JV80 series 
board, for a total of three.
If the Wave Expansion Board is reinstalled in a 
different slot, do Program Change and Bank 
Select numbers also change?
Since fixed Bank Select numbers are assigned to the board 
itself, Bank Select numbers and Program Changes do not 
change, even when the slot position changes.
For more about the relationship between the Bank Select MSB/
LSB and corresponding tone groups, refer to <Bank Select and 
Program Change Correspondence Chart> (Sound/Parameter 
List).
When can I use more than one of the same 
type of Wave Expansion Board?
No. For example, if the same type of Wave Expansion Board is 
installed in the EXP B slot and the EXP C slot, it will only be 
possible to select data from the Wave Expansion Board that was 
installed in the EXP B slot.
Issues Related to Connections
What are the differences between the OUTPUT 
A (MIX) jacks and OUTPUT C jacks on the 
Fantom's rear panel?
Although (MIX) is shown only on the OUTPUT A jacks, this is 
only because factory settings assign the Chorus and Reverb 
Effect Return for each Tone's Send system set to A. However, you 
can also have these Chorus and Reverb Returns set to other jacks. 
Additionally, the PHONES jack is connected to the OUTPUT A 
(MIX) jack, so when the Mix/Parallel parameter (SYSTEM/General) 
is set to “PARALLEL,” the sounds output from the OUTPUT B jack 
are not audible through the headphones. When you wish to monitor 
all the sound through the headphones, set the Mix/Parallel 
parameter to “MIX.”
How do I use L (MONO), and what do I need 
to note when using it?
L (MONO) is a feature particular to the OUTPUT A (MIX) 
jacks. When using only this L (MONO) jack, the sounds 
output in stereo by the OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks is output as a mixed 
monaural signal from the L (MONO) jack. This can be convenient in 
cases where you have no special need for stereo effects, as only one 
cable is needed for the connection. Do be aware that when you want 
to use INDIVIDUAL 1 or 2 as an independent parallel out, plugging 
only into the INDIVIDUAL 1 jack enables the L (MONO) function, 
and the sounds from both (INDIVIDUAL 1 and 2) are output from 
the INDIVIDUAL 1 jack. In this case, plug a cable into the 
INDIVIDUAL 2 jack to disable the L (MONO) function.
Issues Related to DIGITAL OUT
What is the number of bits and the sampling 
rate of the output?
The output is 24-bit, 44.1 kHz.
What signal is output?
The output signal is identical to the signal that is output from 
the OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks.
What do I need to keep in mind when using 
DIGITAL OUT?
The VOLUME on the Fantom will not function, so volume 
adjustments must be made on the connected device.
Miscellaneous
I want to use a tuning other than equal 
temperament.
One set of Scale Tune settings can be created in Patch mode 
(Owner’s Manual; p. 186). In Performance mode or 
Multitimbre mode, this can be set for each part of the performance or 
multitimbre (Owner’s Manual; p. 104, p. 120).
Next, turn the Scale Tune Switch parameter (SYSTEM/Scale Tune) 
to “ON” (Owner’s Manual; p. 186). This setting is valid for all 
patches, performances, and multitimbres.
