Sampling

Default File Type

Specifies the file format used when saving a sample.

Value: WAV, AIFF

Pre Sample Time

0–1000 ms

Value: OFF, ON

The length of sound preceding the moment at which sampling was
manually or automatically initiated that will be captured in the
sample. This lets you prevent the attack portion of the sound from
being omitted from the sample.

Trigger Level

Volume level at which sampling will begin when Auto Trig is ON

A setting of 0 is the minimum.

Value: 0–7

Gap Time

Length of silence at which the sample will be divided

Whenever there is a silent region longer than the specified time, the
sample will be divided at that point, and the next sample number
will be assigned to the sound that follows. This parameter is valid
only when you are using Auto Divide Sampling.

Value: 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 ms

External Source Select

Input source of the external input sound

Value

LINE-L-R: INPUT jacks L/R (stereo)

LINE-L:

INPUT jack L (mono)

MIC:

Trimming Switch

If this is turned on, the Start point and End point settings will be
automatically adjusted after sampling is performed, so any silent
portions at the beginning or end of the sampled sound are excluded.

Value: OFF, ON

Skip Back Time

Specifies how much earlier in time that you want sampling to take
place when you use Skip Back Sampling. If “OFF” selected, skip-
back sampling cannot be performed.

Value: OFF, 5s–40s

power-on (ON) or not (OFF).

Fantom-S to be in when it is powered up.

Value

PATCH:

turn on the power.

PERFORMANCE: The Fantom-S will be in Performance mode when

SRX/RAM Mode

The Fantom-S provides four slots (A–D) for SRX series expansion
boards. This setting specifies whether all of these slots will be
available (x4) or only slots A and B will be available (x2). If you have
installed a 256 MB DIMM module, setting this to “2 SRX/288MB
Max” will change the amount of memory that will be available as
sample memory.

* If a 512 MB DIMM is installed, the result will be the same as if a 256

MB DIMM were installed.

Range

2 SRX/288MB Max: Only EXP slots A and B will be available.

4 SRX/192MB Max: EXP slots A–D will all be available.

* The settings of this switch takes effect when the power is turned on.
