About This Booklet

After you’ve created some great music on your Fantom-X,

why not record it onto an audio CD? That way, you can enjoy

listening to your Fantom-X songs using any CD player. This

booklet describes how to make—or “burn”—an audio CD of

your Fantom-X songs.

There are two different ways to make a CD of your Fantom-X

music:

• Connect the Fantom-X’s audio output to a standalone CD

recorder.

• Use the Fantom-X’s resampling feature to create an audio

file of your song, and then transfer that file to a personal

computer equipped with hardware and software capable

of burning an audio CD.

We’ll explore both of these approaches, as well as the

equipment and/or software you’ll need for each method.

Understanding the Symbols in This Booklet

Throughout this booklet, you’ll come across information that

deserves special attention—that’s the reason it’s labeled with

one of the following symbols.

A note is something that adds information about the topic at hand.

A tip offers suggestions for using the feature being discussed.

Warnings contain important information that can help you avoid possible

damage to your equipment, your data, or yourself.

About CD-Creation Devices

If you’re new to the process of creating your own CDs, you

may be a little confused about the hardware that you’d use to

create one. Basically, there are two different types of devices

that can burn audio CDs. You can use a:

• standalone CD recorder—that records music onto a

recordable CD disc as you play back the music on the

Fantom-X. Standalone CD recorders are available at many

consumer electronics and music stores.

• a CD-R/CD-RW drive—that works with personal computer

software to transfer already-recorded audio files to a

recordable CD disc. You computer may contain a CD-R/CD-

RW drive, or you can buy an external CD-R/CD-RW drive.

(Some CD-R/CD-RW drives can also play and burn DVDs.)

If you plan to use a CD-R/CD-RW drive, you’ll also need a computer to which

you can connect the drive, and which can run the required software.

Recordable CD discs come in two flavors. You can burn CD-R discs once. You

can burn audio onto reusable CD-RW discs over and over. Use CD-R discs to

ensure compatibility with greatest number of audio CD players.

Burning a Fantom-X Music CD on a CD Recorder

Perhaps the simplest way to create an audio CD of your

Fantom-X music is to connect the Fantom-X to a standalone

CD recorder. Using this approach, you can simply play your

Fantom-X songs into the CD recorder for burning.

What You’ll Need

• A standalone CD recorder

• Cables—to connect the Fantom-X to the CD recorder

• Blank CD-R or CD-RW discs

How to Do It, CD-Recorder Style

Consult your CD recorder’s owner’s manual for instructions on its proper

operation.

1. Connect the Fantom-X and Audio CD Recorder

To get the stereo sound of your Fantom-X to the CD recorder,

connect the two devices using one or two audio cables. The

Fantom-X’s rear panel provides a number of different output

jacks for this purpose. The jacks you choose—and the type

of cables you use—will depend on the type of input jacks on

your CD recorder.

If your CD recorder has 1/4” phone-type analog inputs:

1. Use a 1/4” phone-type

audio cable to connect the

Fantom-X’s OUTPUT A (MIX)

L (MONO) jack to the CD

recorder’s left analog input

jack.

2. Use a 1/4” phone-type

audio cable to connect the

Fantom-X’s OUTPUT A (MIX) R

jack to the CD recorder’s right

analog input jack.

The Fantom-X’s OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks use 1/4” phone connectors. If your

CD recorder uses a different type of input jack, you may need to purchase

special cables or cable adaptors. The store where you purchased the

Fantom-X or CD recorder can help you determine the correct cables needed

for the job.

If your CD recorder has a coaxial digital input:

1. Use a coaxial digital audio cable to connect the

Fantom-X’s DIGITAL OUT jack to the CD

recorder’s coaxial digital input jack.

If you’re using this digital connection, we strongly recommend

purchasing a coaxial audio cable designed for digital audio.

Which Type of Connection is Best?

If possible, connect the Fantom-X to the

CD recorder digitally for optimal audio

quality. If you haven’t yet purchased

a CD recorder, we recommended you

purchase one that has a coaxial digital

input connection.

2. Prepare the CD Recorder

Insert a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc into the CD recorder and

set up the device for recording. Consult your CD recorder’s

owner’s manual for instructions.

3. Play the Fantom-X Into the CD Recorder

Play your Fantom-X’s keyboard or sequencer to ensure that

its sound is reaching the CD recorder. You may need to use

the Fantom-X’s VOLUME knob to adjust its output level.

Consult your CD recorder’s owner’s manual for information on

receiving audio and setting recording levels.

If you’ve connected the Fantom-X to your CD recorder

digitally and need to adjust the Fantom-X’s volume, press

the button to the right of the REALTIME CONTROL area until

the ASSIGNABLE indicator lights. Then, adjust the Fantom-X’s

volume using the left-most REALTIME CONTROL knob.

4. Record!

Set the CD recorder to begin recording, and then start playing

your Fantom-X song. When the song is finished, pause or

stop the CD recorder. At this point, you can record additional

Fantom-X songs onto the CD or “finalize” the CD.

Consult your CD recorder’s owner’s manual for information on recording

additional songs, and on“finalizing”a CD so it can be played on a standard

CD player.

Burning a Fantom-X Music CD on a Computer

A computer burns CDs using digital audio

recordings called “audio files.” This means that

to get your Fantom-X song onto a CD using a

computer, it must be turned into an audio file

and moved to the computer’s hard drive first.

The Fantom-X converts music to audio files using a technique

called “resampling.” Once you’ve resampled your music, you

can use the Fantom-X’s onboard USB connection to transfer

the audio file to your computer for burning onto a CD.

Transferring your songs to the computer has an additional

benefit. As you create more and more Fantom-X music, the

computer’s hard drive provides a great place to store and

organize your growing catalog of songs.

What You’ll Need

• A USB-equipped Windows or Macintosh computer—running

a compatible operating system (see the Fantom-X Owner’s

Manual, Page 218)

• A CD-R/CD-RW drive—properly installed in the computer

or connected to the computer externally

• A USB A/B cable—A USB A/B cable has an A-type plug at

one end, and a B-type plug at the other.

USB A plug USB B plug

• Blank CD-R or CD-RW discs

• Audio CD-creation software

A Word About Audio CD-Creation Software

Audio CDs are unique—they’re different than CDs that store

standard computer files. Some computers with built-in drives

allow you to make data CDs directly from the desktop. Audio

CDs can be created only by software designed for the job.

Some computers come with this software already installed.

• On a PC—the most popular CD-creation programs are

Roxio’s EZ CD & DVD Creator Pro, and Nero. Check your

Start menu to see if your PC has either program installed.

If it doesn’t, you can purchase these programs from most

stores that sell software. You can also install Apple’s iTunes

for PC, which can be downloaded from Apple for free.

• On a Mac—iTunes is already installed on every modern

Mac, and it can be downloaded for free if you don’t

already have it on yours. Otherwise, Roxio’s Toast and Jam

programs are also popular for creating audio CDs, and are

available wherever Mac software is sold.

If your computer doesn’t already have audio CD-creation

software, you’ll have to decide which program to use. Check

the system requirements and features for software you’re

considering to find the program that’s right for you.

How to Do It, CD-R/CD-RW Style

1. Load Your Fantom-X Song

1. Press SONG EDIT.

2. Press F1 (Song List).

3. Press F1 (User) or F2 (Card) to display the contents of the

memory area in which the desired song is stored.

4. Press 6and/or 5to select the song and press F8 (Load).

5. The Fantom-X asks if you’re sure you want to load the

selected song—press F8 (Exec) to proceed.

2. Mix Down Your Fantom-X Song

Next, you’ll need to mix down your Fantom-X song and write

the resulting audio file to the Fantom-X’s user memory or in a

card sample memory location. Mixing down creates the stereo

audio file that your computer will use to burn an audio CD.

See Page 15 of the Audio Tracks Workshop booklet for detailed instructions

on how to mix down a song.

3. Set the Fantom-X to USB Storage Mode

USB Storage mode allows the Fantom-X to transfer files to and

from a computer via USB. It’s important to enable USB Storage

mode before the Fantom-X is connected to the computer.

1. Press PATCH/RHYTHM, and then press MENU.

2. Press 6and/or 5to highlight “System,” and then press

ENTER.

3. Press F1 (↑) and/or F2 (↓) to select the USB tab.

5. Turn the VALUE dial to select STORAGE if necessary—when

the confirmation dialog appears, press F8 (OK).

6. Press F8 (System Write).

4. Connect the Fantom-X to Your Computer

Be sure to store any unsaved data such as samples, user patches, songs,

etc., before powering off the Fantom-X. If you don’t know how to do this,

refer to the Fantom-X Owner’s Manual.

1. Power off the Fantom-X.

2. Power on your computer.

3. After the computer has finished starting

up, use the USB A/B cable to connect the

Fantom-X to your computer.

4. Power on the Fantom-X.

5. Transfer Your Song to the Computer Via USB

1. Press MENU.

2. Select USB Storage, and then press ENTER—the USB Select

screen appears.

3. Press F3 (Internal) or F6 (Memory Card) to select the

Fantom-X memory area in which your resampled song’s

audio file is stored—the Fantom-X’s display shows

“Connected” when USB communication is established.

Once connected, a drive representing the Fantom-X’s

memory area appears on your computer. Its name and

location vary depending on the computer you’re using.

• ForWindowsMe/2000/XPusers—a drivenamed“FANX USER”

or “FANX CARD” appears in a new window, depending on

the memory area you selected in Step 3. Inside that drive

are folders named “ROLAND” and “TEMP.”

If the window described above doesn’t open automatically, double-click

“My Computer,” and then double-click FANX USER or FANX CARD.

• For Macintosh users—a drive named

“FANX USER” or “FANX CARD” appears on

the desktop, depending on the memory

area you selected in Step 3. Inside that

drive are folders named “ROLAND” and

“TEMP.”

Though the Fantom-X drive and its folders are now displayed on your

computer’s screen, you’re actually using the computer to view and access

files that are residing in your Fantom-X. Because of this, don’t use your

computer to move, rename, or delete files located in the Fantom-X drive.

Doing so can corrupt the data, making it unreadable by the Fantom-X.

4. On your computer, open the ROLAND folder.

5. Open the SMPL folder located inside the ROLAND folder.

6. Locate your song’s audio file inside the SMPL folder

and copy it to a location on your computer’s hard drive.

Remember where you put it, because you’ll need to tell

your audio CD-creation software where to find it before it

can burn a CD.

6. Closing the USB Connection

When you’re done transferring data between the Fantom-X

and the computer, you’ll want to cancel the USB connection

between them. This bit of housekeeping tells each device that

the USB connection is being terminated.

Failing to properly cancel the USB connection can result in data loss.

Don’t cancel the USB connection while transferring data between the

Fantom-X and your computer.

For Windows Me/2000/XP users:

1. Click the Safely Remove Hardware button located in

the taskbar at the lower right of your computer screen

to cancel the connection with the currently mounted

Fantom-X memory area.

2. On the Fantom-X, press F8 (Exit).

For Macintosh users:

1. Select the Fantom-X’s icon and drag it to the trash.

2. On the Fantom-X, press F8 (Exit).

Once the USB connection has been cancelled, you can

safely disconnect the USB cable from the Fantom-X and the

computer.

7. Burn the CD

Now that your Fantom-X song is on your computer, you can

use your audio CD-creation software to load the song’s audio

file and burn it to an audio CD.

Consult the documentation that came with your computer,

software, and CD-R/CD-RW drive for instructions on their

proper operation.

Using a PC Card and PC Card Reader

The previous section describes transferring data from the

Fantom-X to a computer directly via USB. Another way is by

using a PC card and a PC card reader.

The Fantom-X can store data to a standard PC card plugged

into its PC CARD slot (Compact Flash and SmartMedia cards

also work if they’re used with a PC card adapter). Once the data

is stored on the card, it can be removed from the Fantom-X

and used with a PC card reader connected to your computer.

The card appears on the computer and you can work with your

Fantom-X data in the same way as described earlier.

Consult your card reader’s documentation for info on its proper usage.

Since you’ll want to reuse the card on the Fantom-X, don’t use your

computer to move, rename, or delete files on the card.
