Sorry if my explanation is a bit confusing. If you get a controller box up found on the midi controller tool (like a knob or slider, I think you right or left click and select configure) and move the associated controller on the XA, fruity loops should automatically pick it up (if I'm rembering correctly ). There is a bit more setup after this, like if you want to use CC and such, but setting that up is pretty self explanatory. Set the port on the controller to the same number as the XA, and choose the midi channel you want to talk to. Now when trying to use the XA, use a midi controller (it similar to adding a sample controller, its found in the same menu too). If you want to use it as a controller, I'm pretty there is an option to set it to the XA. There should be a list in there with all of your systems current midi devices. That should be under options midi setup (or something like that). Also you need to specify a midi port to talk to the XA on.

I think thats is a item under the options menu.

Make sure you have enable midi outputs ticked. Added custom controls for DrumSynth presets. I havent used fruity loops for a while, and I haven't used it with a fantom either (I've got an X not an XA anyway), but I have used it with other midi gear, such as drum machines and sound modules. New FX tracks (now 16 inserts + 2 sends) Centered views for some controllers in event editor.
