Is anyone heard of Roland releasing a video manual for the Fantom G series?

I did find some great Fantom G stuff on the web by one of the Roland Product Specialists: Dan Krisher

Not sure if this has been suggested yet elsewhere, but it would be nice to be able to press the REC button twice to enter STEP REC mode, just like the Fantom X did.

I used the Fantom G to format my USB Jumpdrive. I did perform Roland's "acid test" and the jumpdrive failed accroding to their specifications so now I am trying to get the M-UF1G stick that they recommend but I need to order it from my dealer and it goes for $60.00. It also only holds 1gb.

I contacted Roland support because I was having trouble saving projects to my USB flash drive (which is a SanDisk 4GB Cruizer Micro). Songs and samples would not save or I would get a "Memory Full" error message. This is the response from Roland: Note that many common USB keys don't succes...

<t>When I saved my song using the WRITE button and then saved the project, I noticed that the mixer settings did not save (in other words none of the instruments I assigned are coming up). What gives? Did I forget to save something?<br/> <br/> What are the proceedures for correctly saving EVERYTHING...

ok I just can't seem to find out how to do this:

1. How do I assign a Phrase to a track?

2. How do I name a song?

Thanks

Do not attempt to use any other form of USB storage than that which was formatted using the Fantom G first! If you do, simply inserting the USB device into the port will erase any other information on the USB device (including any files that the Fantom G does not recognise).

I have talked to Roland Tech Support and I have answers to the questions posted earlier. 1. Is there an "Undo" function? A. No, but Roland stated that there will be an undo/redo fuction coming in the next OS Update which should be out in a week or so. 2. Is there a way to load all my previ...

<t>Hello -<br/> <br/> I am a former Fantom X8 user and have just upgraded to the Fantom G8, and I have a couple of questions:<br/> <br/> 1. Is there no "Undo" function in the sequencer?<br/> <br/> 2. Is there a way to load all my previous SVQ files into the Fantom G?<br/> <br/> 3. How do I preview c...

<t>I can save and load to and from the card just fine, but I cannot see the card using the USB Storage option when connecting to a computer. WIndows XP does not see the card, or when it does, nothing exists. I even tried reformatting the card with Windows and then reinserting the card back into the ...

I am using OS 1.04
Inserting the card with the power off has no effect
I am using a PC>HDD 5GB, but it doesn't matter what type of card I insert


Thank you, Scooby Doo

Is there a way to expand the user RAM? Not the sample RAM but the user RAM greater than 32MB?

Thank you, Scooby Doo

<t>I am using a 5GB PC Card Hard Disk, when I am using [USB Storage] I cannot see the card using my PC, or sometimes I can see it, but it appears (to the computer) that there is nothing on it. When I use the computer to write to the card, it erases everything previously stored. Does anyone have any ...

When I insert a PC Card into my Phantom X, it shows the free space and used space as a negative value in [File Utility]. Is there a fix for this?

Thank you, Scooby Doo

Is it possible to insert a 5GB PC Card Hard Disk into the card slot or is there only a 1GB limit on the X8?

Thank you, Scooby Doo
