Roland Clan Forums

I do have to say the plastic case on the Krome is cheap, as well as the feel of the keys. I took the one I purchased back to GC. Overall, not satisfied. Next up, I think I will go with the Motif XF8. I like a lot of the features on it, and the sounds are for sure great. I only really need one workst...

Maybe I am asking a basic question but is there a way to send out audio via the other outputs besides the main outputs to have audio recorded on separate tracks in Logic Pro X or any other software? If so, can someone tell me how to do it?

Thanks so much for any help you can provide.

I have had the G8 for about 4 years and it still seems like a great workstation. However, after trying out the Kronos X I am considering getting rid of the G for the X. It would be great if Roland did release a new Fantom Hybrid or something before I am tempted to go Korg. I also purchased the Korg ...

Thanks so much for everyone's help. This is a tuff decision. I like the Kronos and it appears to be very easy to use. My problem with the XS is it it difficult for me to navigate in the sequence mode compared to the G. I was also thinking of something like a Access Virus Ti2 Polar. Anyways, I apprec...

I have a Fantom G8 and a Motif XS8. I am considering selling the Motif and getting another board, like a Virus Ti2 Polar or Kronos. Does anyone have a recommendation for a board that would go with the Fantom?

I am located near Akron, Ohio, USA.

Wow, I have read the posts about a new workstation? What's wrong the current G? I think it works fine. Just my opinion but if they never come out with a new one, I am satisfied. Would I like to see a new one with about a 100 more options, you bet. However, I still feel its the best board on the mark...

Has anyone seen or demoed the Beat Thang? I went to my local Best Buy music store and they had one. I fooled around with it for an hour. Wow, that thing blows everything away in my opinion. Fairly steep price at $1499. If anyone else has done any research or tried it, please post. I am looking for o...

I heard Roland is not producing the G8 anymore. Has anyone else heard that or can it be confirmed?

Thanks.

I will trade my current G8 and Yamaha XS8 when Roland comes out with their next G workstation. I really think the G is the best workstation and it can only get better.

Great point Apex as always.

Hey folks, I agree GC cannot seem to get it right. Luckly I have a BEST BUY instrument store here in Ohio. It is 1 of only 50 in the nation. Their music department is top-shelf with non-commission sales people and they know their stuff. The store I go to is stocked to the max with every keyboard on ...

I agree, Artemiy is the best for suggestions on training.

I do it all the time, so tell me what you are doing.

Wow did I run across a deal! I was at one of the Best Buy mega stores with the true Instrument departments. They are selling new Motif XS8's for $1151 in the box! I purchased it right away even though I had the rack XS. I just sold it on EBay. I am telling you Best Buy is going to give GC and Sam As...
