Thanks so much!

Especially appreciated the Preview function!

So did piaknowguy fall off the face of the earth or something?!

If so, can I have his FA-08?!

I went from a Fantom X8 to the FA-08, so I can't speak to the keybed difference in the X6 vs. the 06 (the keys in the 08 are better than the X8, by the way), but the FA is a big upgrade over the X for me. Great sounds and I don't miss anything in the X. And the reduced footprint and lighter weight o...

Thanks, enjoyed the video and the music! By the way, for anyone interested in Tangerine Dream.... One of my all-time favorite movies is coming back! And it has a soundtrack by Tangerine Dream. I saw "Sorcerer" in 1977 and was blown away! Have never seen it come around in theaters since the...

I'm using the dust cover I had for my Fantom X from Digital Deck Covers: https://www.digitaldeckcovers.com Here's the specific page for Fantoms: https://www.digitaldeckcovers.com/categories.php?category=Audio-Equipment/Pro-Audio-Equipment/Roland-Items&sort=featured&page=2 The cover is, of co...

Cool! Thanks for the heads up!

I don't know, but you might have some luck calling a retailer such as Sweetwater and asking them. I'd say call Roland but I rarely can get through on their line. Going to try again tomorrow, though!

Well, let's see....that would've been a noon earlier today and we've not heard a peep out of him so far....guess he's a tad busy with I-don't-know-what.....

Yah, savor the moment!

The longer I have it, the more I'm falling in love with this machine!

I suppose the honeymoon will be over at some point, but going to enjoy it while it lasts....

Found a installation video that was a tad more tolerable and not so long:

OK, thanks! That did work and I had some fun jamming' tonight! But, sheesh, I don't think we should have to actually record just to jam out a bit. I guess this is my first official complaint about the FA series and Roland should change it. Do you think it's possible with an update? Anyway, thanks ag...

What is the best way (or is there a way) to play a Rhythm Group from Intro-->Pattern A-->Pattern B-->Pattern C-->Pattern D-->Ending and have it loop continuously when you just want to jam to it? Probably have to exclude the Ending, I'm guessing, because that's programmed to stop everything when done...

Holy Crap! After checking out the second of the two videos "geeman" posted from Roland in the thread: "New vid: How to create a basic sequence", I discovered none of this was necessary! The S1 and S2 buttons above the modulation wheel can switch the Rotary effect quite nicely, th...

Holy Video Tutorials, Batman!

Thanks again!

Thanks for the heads up!
