Roland Fantom-Xa 业主指南

 

Use the LFO to create cyclic changes (modulation) in a sound. The 
Fantom-Xa has two LFOs. You can use the LFO to apply an effect to 
either the WG (pitch), the TVF (filter), or the TVA (volume). When 
an LFO is applied to the WG pitch, a vibrato effect is produced. 
When an LFO is applied to the TVF cutoff frequency, a wah effect is 
produced. When an LFO is applied to the TVA volume, a tremolo 
effect is produced.

 

Patches are the basic sound configurations that you play during a 
performance. Each patch can be configured by combining up to four 
tones. How the four tones are combined is determined by the 
Structure Type parameter (p. 38).

Rhythm sets are groups of a number of different percussion 
instrument sounds. Since percussion instruments generally do not 
play melodies, there is no need for a percussion instrument sound to 
be able to play a scale on the keyboard. It is, however, more 
important that as many percussion instruments as possible be 
available to you at the same time. Therefore, each key (note number) 
of a rhythm set will produce a different percussion instrument.

Each percussion instrument consists of the following four elements. 
(For details, refer to the explanations for “Tones.”)

 

A performance has a patch or rhythm set assigned to each of the 16 
parts, and can simultaneously handle 16 sounds. 

The Fantom-Xa has two screens: a LAYER screen and a MIXER 
screen (p. 68, p. 70).

Use the LAYER screen if you want to play two or more patches 
together (Layer) or play different patches in separate areas of the 
keyboard (Split).

Use the MIXER screen if you want to “mix” by individually 
adjusting the pan and level settings for each of the sixteen parts.

Because the Fantom-Xa sound generator can control multiple sounds 
(instruments), it is called a Multi-timbral sound generator.

On the Fantom-Xa, a “part” is something to which you assign a 
patch or rhythm set. Patch mode has two parts, the Pad part and the 
Keyboard part, and you can assign a patch or rhythm set to each of 
these parts. In Performance mode, each performance has sixteen 
parts, and you can assign a patch or rhythm set to each part.
