Settings Common to All Modes (System Function)
System Ctrl
Sys Ctrl 1–4 Source
System Control Assign selects the MIDI message used as the System
Control.
Value
OFF:
The system control knob will not be used.
CC01–31, 33–95:
Controller numbers 1–31, 33–95
For details on control change messages, refer to
“MIDI
Implementation”
(Parameter List).
PITCH BEND:
Pitch Bend
AFTERTOUCH:
Aftertouch
Screen Saver
Screen Saver Type
Select the type of screen saver.
Value:
1–10
Screen Saver Time
Set the time (minutes) until the screen saver begins working.
If this is OFF, the screen saver will not appear.
Value:
OFF, 5–60 min.
Background
Background Picture
Select the file that is to be displayed as the screen background.
Value:
1–10
Sync/Temp
Sync Mode
Specify the synchronization message that the Fantom-S’s sequencer
will use for operation.
Value
MASTER:
The Fantom-S will be the master. Choose this setting
when using the Fantom-S by itself without
synchronizing to another device, or when you want
other MIDI devices to synchronize to the Fantom-S.
SLAVE-MIDI:
The Fantom-S will be the slave. Choose this setting
when you want the Fantom-S to synchronize to MIDI
Clock messages received from another MIDI device.
SLAVE-MTC:
The Fantom-S will be the slave. Choose this setting
when you want the Fantom-S to synchronize to MTC
(MIDI Time Code) received from an external device.
REMOTE:
Use this setting when you wish an external MIDI
device to have remote start/stop control. The tempo
will be in accord with what has been set on the
Fantom-S.
Sync Output (Sync Output Switch)
Set this parameter ON when you want synchronization related MIDI
messages (MIDI Clock, Start, Continue, Stop, Song Position Pointer
and Song Select) to be transmitted to an external MIDI device. If not,
set it OFF.
Value:
OFF, ON
Tempo Override
Specify whether the sequencer tempo will change (ON), or will not
change (OFF) when you switch performance.
Value:
ON, OFF
System Control
This function, which departs from previously used methods,
and instead allows you to use MIDI messages to change tone
settings in realtime, is called the Matrix Control (p. 61).
Similarly, the function allowing you to use MIDI messages to
change multi-effects settings in realtime is called the Multi-
effects Control (p. 181).
Normally, the Matrix Control is used for making patch settings,
and the Multi-effects Control for making settings to patches,
rhythm sets, and performances. However, if you do not need to
change the MIDI messages used for matrix control or multi-
effects control by each patch/rhythm set/performance, or if
you want to use a specific MIDI message for matrix control or
multi-effects control, you will want to make use of System
Control. In other words, you could call the System Controls
global Matrix Control/Multi-effects Control for the entire
Fantom-S.
You can use up to four System Controls.
MIDI Clock and MTC
MIDI Clock and MTC (MIDI Time Code) are both messages
used for synchronization. Select either of them depending on
the application.
MIDI Clock transmits and synchronizes operations to a
sequencer’s performance tempo, whereas MTC synchronizes
operations between devices based on an absolute time. Since
Roland VS Series workstations are hard disk recorders, they
cannot send MIDI Clock. Therefore, using a MTC is convenient
for synchronization of the hard disk recorder and the Fantom-S.
However, VS Series devices also feature specialized tracks for
recording MIDI Clock, so with the Fantom-S’s MIDI Clock
recorded in this manner, we have another synchronizing
technique in which the VS device appears to be sending MIDI
Clock (although it is actually playing back tracks to which MIDI
Clock has been recorded). However, since the tempo must be
recorded to the VS sync track beforehand, MTC is only
convenient in synchronizing with songs that do not contain
great amounts of tempo data.
