switching between drums

26 Jan 2006, 15:31

i am a newbie.

i had a yamaha psr640. i could play a beat while i play the keyboard. if in the middle of the song i wanted to switch to a different beat, it would do so quite smoothly with a nice little ta-ta-pop then new beat.

can i do that with my fantom xa?
it just seems like i get the drum beat i start with, then when i change, it just changes without any smooth transition.

can the XA do this?
thx.

Hi,
i think i found part of the problem.
i was at the music store and saw the bigger fantoms, and
on the drums they have a ROLL button, but my Fantom XA does not have this!!! at least not visibly.

does anyone know if the XA does have this but i just don't know where it is?

what's the name of the version just one step higher on the fantom, than the XA?

thx.
