Saving a Song as an SMF
You can export MIDI tracks in SMF format to
move your song over to a DAW (“Digital Audio
workstation”) on a computer, or to exchange
songs with friends. To do this, navigate to
the Song Play screen, click F7 (Song Util) and
select Save as SMF. The Fantom-G displays a
screen with a pair of settings on it, as well as
detailed explanations of your options.
The first parameter, SMF Format Select,
allows you to choose the type of SMF you
want to export. The second lets you select
the MIDI tracks to be included, based on the
type of Fantom-G sounds they use.

MIDI InFocus booklet, which you can download for free from here.
