Bought new higher quality heavier duty cables (1/8 to 1/4’s mono) fixed all issues. The cables I had were cheap hosa ones that I’d had for quite a few years. Will still likely buy an audio midi interface once I pick up either a Roli or K Board Pro 4. The 2 JD 990’s, JP 8080 and Radias are not long f...

Must be a polyphony issue with the X6 performances that I setup and the the iPad strings/orchestra/brass ensemble patches. The ep’s, organ, basses are fine. Will just have to scale back on the Performances that I setup. Waiting for IOS 13 to arrive as I understand it will impact some of the IOS musi...

Seems only to drop notes when in Performance mode where. If select ie. Symphonica patch and GBand Brass Ensemble there are no notes dropping. I have read that this can be an issue using GBand - have had it for 15 yrs just never used it on my Macs before. I will likely get AUM and then see how Heavy ...

Well got the UM-1SX working but have quite a bit of note dropouts using GarageBand’s Brass Ensemble. The issue was I needed to plug the power into the adapter without it couldn’t power the UM. More research to do to rid the dropouts. I am hoping to bring the iPad loaded with Heavy Brass, iSymphony a...

Anyone using their Fantom X to connect to the new iPad Air 3’s? I tried using the Edirol UM -1SX that I had used with iMacs and Windows (incl 10) but nothing with the USB to Camera 3 and this new iPad.

It would be great if they could be loaded into my Fantom X6, if so I'd likely sell both JD 990's as well as the JP 8080.

For Rush are you looking to replicate the Oberheim sound ie. Subdivisions, led Zep - Mellotron, organ and Boston - organ? If your X7 has the SRX Ultimate Keys that will make your life easier. I have 2 JD990's with Vintage Synth and Keys of the 60's & 70's cards installed. The SRX card has many o...

My 1gb card works fine, I've read where others use a 2gb card and it works fine as well.

The Kronos is a beast, I believe it is based off of the Oasys. I played it (Kronos 2) during a studio recording session, I found its sound "brighter with more built in shimmer" than both the Roland and Kurz with the Kurz sound a bit darker than the Roland. It sounds like both the FA and Kr...

FA 08, Korg Kronos 2, newest Kurzweil workstation (sorry can't remember its name). There are a number of comparison reviews online, each has its own strengths and weaknesses and all very good sounding.

I decided to finally open the top and check to see if any previous owner had replaced the battery. I've owned the Juno 60 for 7 or 8 yrs, no real storage issues until this past week. The bd would not stay in any selected patch or even manual mode. Disconnected the power, open the keyboard up and no ...

Just pulled up Phase Clav in the Keyboards area, was able to turn Phaser off when push effects button and hit effect sw (f8) then hit f1 to turn MFX1 off. Don't forget about the patch edit area, thats where you can gain full control over your sound and modify it to your hearts desire.

So if you change from Phaser to a rotary for eg the phaser is still on? Have you turned tone 1 off, turned MFX-1 to 0 from 127? I am not at my X6 right now so just going from memory. I'll take a look and also go through Patch edit to look at the patch's structure but I had no problem turning Phaser ...

I have a VintageClav in PR-I 013 in Keyboards area that I imagine is the same. It shows Tone 1 MFX @127, MFX-1 11 Phaser - 127A @ 80. If you turn to Thru which is 0 you get rid of the Phaser, or insert whatever fx you want to replace the Phaser. I usually setup these as Performance patches, zero out...

Liking this pedal more and more. Ran it through my regular setup this morning X6 -> mixer -> Speakeasy Vintage Classic Stereo Tube Pre -> LK -> amp/powered speaker vs yesterday X6 -> amp with LK in fx send/rtn. The Speakeasy has twin Hammond clone amps with individual gain and output along with indi...
