THe Fantom G is capable of doing what you require but you will have to spend (a lot of) time programming it ... I have managed to put a RPS version of Sledghammer into the G7 and it sound great, but it took some time. It is worth spending the time to program the phrases, as you get better at it it b...

I use Sonar X2 with a G7 amongst other kit, it's very powerfull with a lot of features but it's not a trivial piece of software to use.. so the question really is, what exactly do you wish to achieve? If you just want to "Bang Trax Out" you may find it a bit much !

You can completely control the FG from a Laptop by using the FG Editor!

I have a G7 because as when I was younger I was lazy, but if you want to greatly improve your playing ability get the G8!

I stick mine in the bath and shower it down with a bit of head and shoulders:¬0.. I use pledge, spray the pledge onto a dusting cloth (not direct onto the board) and wipe down, all over, then with glass cleaner, use a paper towel and clean the screen in the same manor..

Mine shines !!

Hi Naty, Try loading the midi file into a DAW (something like Sonar LE) that will enable you to edit it, that way you can change the sounds to what is suitable to you (if you use the preset sounds in the FG they will never change ) and also get rid of any unwanted messages that it file may contain t...

THanks Mystic thats very helpfull, I will have a look at the demo....

Gents, Slightly different topic here... I currently run Sonar HS6 and have had a few problems with latency and bugs with MIDI, I was considering upgrading to Sonar X1 and was wondering if you had any views on how HS6 and X1 compare, have you had any midi issues with X1 or latency issues ? I use Sona...

Without a doubt, and thats not factoring in "The Devil you know" factor... a great machine easy to program, plenty of scope to come up with the sounds I need. I fact I would buy another G7 now as a backup if I had the cash !

LOL thanks agin!

Mystic, I just checked that and all events are I (inetrnal), so wierd. However, I found a solution. :) I have now connected the FG Coventional Midi Out to my 4x4 midi Box and can route TX messages via the FG's ext midi channels. With tihs I can still use the USB midi on the FG for ONLY the FG. If I ...

Hi Guys, I'm having some trouble here and for the life of me I cannot work it out! Can you help before i top myself :) Hers what I'm trying to do: In Live mode, setup and multi sound set with split and layer, so when I play the right hand melody I route the midi to my GT, where I can use the Vdesine...

<t>Mystic38 <br/> <br/> I have added the FG to my DAW setup and had a few bugs since, <br/> I have deselected all output devices and it' now doing as I asked it.. but Say with Channel D/ Midi Channel 2, If play the MS2000 it seams to want to echo on another channel.. bizzaar, <br/> <br/> IE If It st...

<r>Hi StealthGear, <br/> <br/> I haven't had the FG very long but I do know there is no Sync or Cross Mod, there is a ring Mod though... <br/> <br/> Not being a FG expert, I have been very impressed with the programming setup, very straight forward and easy to use, and with up to eight waves (4 x 2)...
