About the Chord Memory
Function
Chord Memory is a function that allows you to play chords based on
pre-programmed
Chord Forms
, just by pressing a single key on the
keyboard. The Fantom-S can store 64 preset chord forms and 64 user
chord forms. If you wish, you can overwrite any of the 64 user
(factory set) chord forms.
The chord memory function operates on the arpeggio part in
Performance mode. If a rhythm set is selected for that part, you can
also use this to play rhythms.
* You cannot use the chord memory function with the pads.
When you press the C4 key (Middle C), the chord is played
using the exact chord structure recorded in the Chord Form. This
is referenced to the C4 key; parallel chords are played by
pressing other keys.

use it along with the Arpeggio function (p. 104). After first
storing complex Chord Forms in memory, you can then call
them up when Arpeggio is on, and you can easily create
complex arpeggio sounds just by pressing a single key.
