Hi Omar: what do you mean by slave mode? I'm using Fantom Xr. and nothing you have to do just put your fantom on perf mode and install the instrument def. that's all what you need you don't have to remove the motif inst just select the port&channels you want to use with Fantom and that's it.

Second, I'm preparing to install the instrument definition files for the Fantom x in Sonar. I was previously using the Motif es. Do I need to remove the motif's ins def files prior to installing the fantom's? If so, how do I do that? Thanks for any help in advance. Omar Binno
