Playing in Performance Mode
Performance mode is where you can combine multiple sounds
(patches or rhythm sets) to create complex sounds, or use the
Fantom as a master keyboard. You can also create and play layers
(patches played together) or splits (separate patches played from
different areas of the keyboard). About the PERFORMANCE PLAY

About the MIDI Connection Settings
(Zone and Part)
Although the Fantom’s keyboard controller section and sound
generator section are connected internally using a MIDI
connection, in Performance mode, you can then make even
more detailed settings affecting the way the connection works
between the keyboard controller section and the sound
generator section, as well as with an external MIDI device.
At the factory standard settings, shown below, there is a one-to-
one correspondence between the
zone , the MIDI transmit/
receive channel , and the part .
fig.05-01.e
Under these conditions, you could simply consider that “each
of the zones from 1 to 16 is linked in a one-to-one
relationship with its numerical counterpart among parts 1
to 16” . In other words, you can use zone 1 when controlling
part 1, zone 2 is when controlling part 2, and so on.
In this manual, the expression “the zone and part are
linked” refers to the condition whereby a zone’s MIDI
transmit channel and a part’s MIDI receive channel are
matched in this one-to-one relationship.
Zone 2 (MIDI transmit channel 2)
Zone 1 (MIDI transmit channel 1)
Zone 16 (MIDI transmit channel 16)
Part 2 (MIDI receive channel 2)
Part 1 (MIDI receive channel 1)
Part 16 (MIDI receive channel 16)
