What's the boot up time on FA-06?

[Bratan]

Seriously thinking about trading my G6 for FA-06. Does anyone know how fast is start-up time on this synth? My main gripe with G6 was it's super long boot-up, that's why I hardly used it as MIDI controller... Also it seems a lot sleeker and probably lighter too..

If I remember correctly, it was 7 or 8 seconds in the videos.

Ah never mind, I was just watching Preview video, and they say it takes around 8 seconds to load everything. Very nice!
Edit: Thanks JunoJohn, looks like you replied around the same time as I was writing this :)

[JunoJohn]

Well, I got the 8 seconds right! :-)

The FA-06 is also less than half the weight of the G6.

Awesome!!! Lugging that 32lb keyboard is a pain! Hopefully it also has microscope mode for dissecting MIDIs just like Fantom G6.

Microscope view is covered on page 68 of the Owner's Manual (aka Reference Manual).

Yes, that's right 7-8 seconds it is.

But...I'm wondering as when the Expansion cards are available, how much time will take to load the two available Slots?

I'm just comparing this with the integra-7, as booting and loading the 4 Slots it takes around 20 seconds

7 to 8 seconds.

Wait. Am I late? Did someone else already say that?
