FANTOM G8 DRIVER DOWNLOAD

Symphonique Strings is wonderful--but only if you are writing string sections. It's this feature that makes the Fantom unique. Oddly, one of the least expensive, the XP30, offered the most bang for the buck as it hardwired in the techno, orchestral and session JV80 boards and gave you one more open slot.

The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear, but is fully operational and functions as intended. Fxntom Fantom 's sequencer, which while it's not going to rival Cubase or Logic, is full featured, more so than the Motif and Triton sequencers in my opinion.

This type of sequencer allows for the looping of drum patterns, basslines and arpeggios. Above you see famtom first Fantom which had 64 voices 1, Patches Preset, User and GM2 soundsplus fajtom rhythm sets.

Even today a fully expanded XV would be a tremendous value. All of these synths were 16 channel multi-timbral. Big screen for programming, huge library, monster sound palette. Ok, I've traced the Fantom back to its early synths. This item may be a floor model or store return that has been used.

So we were way over patch locations without any SRX cards loaded. As hip hop took a strong hold on popular music, the shadowy Fantom was there to make the beat.

The Kurzweil K, perhaps the longest lived line travels back to the late 80s with the K While the Fantom can only access one specially named bank from the card, you could swap that as often as you fantpm or keep several banks on there an rename the one you want to use. The Fantom was based on the XV sound engine, but had no fantm in its debut version. It's what it does not have that is important--SCSI!

Show More Show Less. Gone are the hard drives and dedicated CD rom devices. Non of the synths above had sampling or loaded user samples yet.

You can put single samples on them, whole drum patterns on them, individual drum hits, or my favorite, you can put full 16 channel sequences on each pad.

Yep, you have to program the instruments from scratch if you want to do that.

The patch structure follows the same basic flow as all Roland sample-playback synths, very straightforward. If you're a musician with some recording background, you'll love the G8!

Recording on the Fantom is easy. A firmware and rom update added audio recording. Has tons of hits as well as solos and ensembles. Optimized effects and custom graphic interfaces are exclusive to each ARX board.

Has some interesting brass hits and stuff you can drop on a track, some cool kits and nasty analog synth emulations, all hyped up as one would expect.

Basically, this allowed you to use the units sample ram for linear audio recording. Your sample is recorded and a screen asks you whether you want to assign it to a pad or the keyboard. Maxed out with SRX cards and sample ram, very few synths today can touch it.

People who bought this also bought. The Fantom S came with a 64 meg rom. After all, naming your products two letters and 4 numbers was hardly evocative. The Fantom at once conjured up a powerful, shadowy image. You had to pay more to get less!
