Re: Namm new products - nothing for the FG !

<t>sheesh aren't forums an accurate assessment of a product's success (sarcasm detector: not). <br/> When the G came out, everyone was like "yay! motif and korg are dead and can never come back. G has won the workstation battle." <br/> <br/> Quickly changed to "meh..its kinda good, but nothing u can...

Re: Why Buy Roland Anymore? What In The World Is Going On Wi

<r>Art, <br/> I see. Indeed a computer sequencer would best a hardware one for me anytime. <br/> <br/> I see a lot of famous artists using Fantom G (clever product placement by roland?) and ofcourse everyone has a computer nowadays. So, I'd suggest simply using the fantom G as a scratch pad/drum sam...

Re: Why Buy Roland Anymore? What In The World Is Going On Wi

<r>Gotta say this - the attitude around the FG forum is depressing to watch. I don't really frequent these forums - once in a while I check with the crowd to keep up with the latest tech. <br/> <br/> Gotta say though the moaning about the G (and i dont mean just the OP) is a suprise to me. I do NOT ...

Re: The Fantom G NOTHING experience has just stepped over th

<t>Most indian music composers have a Roland Fantom X or a Fantom G as their main workstation (look up the pics of the studios). <br/> <br/> Rahman had a Fantom S, then he must have gotten the X and then moved to the G. <br/> <br/> I think the skip back sampling has something to do with it. Also not...

Re: Fantom-G worth the upgrade from Fantom-S...?

Fantom S owner here. Stay with the S. It has SRX options. If i were you, I'd get 3 more SRXs and kick ass with the Fantom S, or upgrade to a Fantom X but not to a Fantom G. Too much money for very little productivity value,imo ofcourse.

Re: fantom G Review (mainly piano related)

after reading more and more reviews like his, I become more satisfied with stickiing with software. If i spend $2700 on something, it better replace everything I own.

Re: $200 Rebate on Fantom-G

Buy it B-stock from ams to get it for $1999 total.

That was the price of the fantom X6 a few years back. !!

Re: Why buy a G when X is so cheap now?

step LFO can have a billion steps and it wont make your purchase any more worthier.

you play the keys, you can do anythign with the X. You'll be happy with the X if money is tight. if you have tons load, get the G.


I'm still very happy with the Fantom S.
