Yes - I do a backup and then copy the whole card to my computer. To restore, I copy from the computer to a card then put it in the FA and restore. CDA, thanks for the reply! So, what I will need is this System backup + SD card clone and also have an USB stick with my installed EXP. With these set a...

The Utility>Backup do backup of all User memory as System settings. That is ok but pretty useless because this kind of backup does not include a very important part of User data that are all USER SONGS & SAMPLES. These are not saved. If you delete a Song and its associated Samples and Studio Set...

Hi Paul, As stevel pointed out if you have a lot of backing vocal samples to add the best approach is to use the sequencer to fire the samples and sync then to a click track that you should send to the drummer. I do a lot of backing tracking/vocal samples + step sequenced tracks with a DD cover band...

1. Solve the "bug" in sequencer that make it return to first bar whenever you do any kind of track editing (not microscope). 2. Option to save SONGs in FAVORITES which was possible in fantom series. This would save a lot of time when playing live with several sequenced songs/samples stored...

Petroni, care to share any of these songs? I'd be really interested in hearing if you have anything online? Particularly if they've been 100% done within the FA itself, i feel like i'm drowning the larger a song grows in the FA. Wish it would scroll in 8 bar intervals - would make song navigation s...

I do everything (sequencing/sampling/click/etc) with the FA and after 2 years with the board I feel really at home. The only thing that its really annoying for me is a bug in the sequencer software that make it goes back to measure 01 everytime you do any kind of track editing, specially when you ar...

It's not acceptable that Roland did not issue a software update for the FA keyboard line. 1. It's the only active product in their line that has the word "Workstation" associated with and they are making money from FA sales that can easily justify the investment in a firmware update. 2. Ba...

I was almost sure it was not possible but it's was hard to admit :(

Hi all, can you help me about an issue i can't solve about midi communication between korg tr (master) and fa 06 (slave) I use combination in which i trasmit in Ex2 on channel 3 the midi out event on Fa 06. I can change Program but only in the range 0-127 of GM presets. I'would like to select other...

The question says it all.
Did not find any reference in the manual or midi implementation.

Any clues?

Maybe there is some SysEx that can turn on / off the parts but I believe that you will have to dig deep in the MIDI implementation of the FA.

Another way that come to mind is to use volume messages to set volume 000 to turn parts off and volume xxx to turn others on.

On the contrary of the Fantom X it is not possible to save a SONG (complete with its related Studio Set) on a Favorite position. With the Fantom X I used to prepare the song + set program changes messages so that when I selected a Favorite position the song was loaded and PrgChange messages were sen...
