Editing rhythm patches???

9 Dec 2004, 07:29

I have my MPC sequencing drums on the Fantom S. When I'm in the edit screen of a rhythm set, I hit the keyboard or drum pad on the fantom and the corresponding midi note/wave sound appears on the edit screen, allowing you to edit it.

Why doesnt the same thing happen when I use the MPC to select the midi note?? It seems that the fantom doesnt respond to external midi notes when in the edit screen.

Can anyone get this to work??

The Fantom probably doesn't use incoming MIDI note messages to select Tones to prevent errors from happening in a performance situation. You may be able get the Fantom to use incoming note info to select Tones by turning on the "Remote Keyboard Switch" in the MIDI tab of the System menu. I haven't tried though since I don't have a separate keyboard to try this with.
