When I first got into making music seriously, I asked my mentor which keyboard should I get. His response was, "You can't go wrong with Roland". This was around 2000 so I got the XP-60 but I got the Fantom when it came out and eventually got the Triton and the Motif. In those days we collected gear like some of the younger guys collect VSTs nowadays lol.

If you had to stick with a keyboard today for commercial music. Would you choose the Motif ES or the Fantom X?
@maysonstorm4956 Жыл бұрын
@@elfenixmusico I miss those days. I haven't used either in few years I think it depends on the genre of music. Roland has always had better, more realistic "organic" sounds (pianos, strings, basses, etc.) while the Motif is better for electronic music. Both are awsome, though. I hope this helps.

I actually moved away from workstation keyboards and hardware sequencing all together after my MPC5000 power supply failed which is a well known issue with the 5000 that's a piece of junk. I moved back to software sequencing in the DAW. I gotten rid of my MPC and MOTIF ES keyboard and switched over to rack mount synths. I own just about every single sound model used through the 90s and early 2000s Hip Hop and R&B as I have the Yamaha MOTIF-Rack ES, Roland Fantom -XR, Roland Integra-7 essentially a modern XV-5080, E-MU Proteus 2000 and the E-MU Mo' Phatt sound module. I also have the Korg Triton and Trion Extreme plugins. That's pretty much every sound of that era. I'm pretty much Hybrid that uses both modern virtual instruments that I use along with my Legacy hardware collection. I got keyscape too which is super dope.

I bought the S version back in 2004 just before the X came out and still use it till this day and it still sounds awesome. I just recently added the Integra which gives me all of the SRX boards, 3 different synth engines, and a XV5080 in one box. These compliment each other nicely. I played the NEW Fantom in a Guitar Center a while back. While it looks nice and sounds good, it is definitely deep and very expensive. It's a shame the effects algorithms from the old Fantom generation didn't carry over to the new one. I really love the chorus and phaser effects on my old Fantom S with the Rhodes after I custom tweaked it. That Rhodes is killer!!!!!!!! ‐---------------- UPDATE (2/23/2023): I've played the new Fantom a lot more since I originally wrote this post. I now own a Fantom-06 and no longer own the Fantom S. I was wrong about what I stated earlier in this post concerning the old effects not carrying over to the new Fantom. The truth is, the new Fantom still has many of the older effects algorithms from the older Fantom series (S/X/G) plus a lot of newer ones, too! When I commented earlier about them, I apparently didn't spend enough time in the store with the new Fantom to realize that. Sorry. With all of that said, my Fantom-06 and Integra-7 don't have all of the stock factory sounds from the older Fantom S and X, including the Rhodes (those particular Rhodes samples). As a result, I still miss my Fantom S. However, I do plan on getting those sounds back in the form of an older Roland sound module (at some point) that has all of the same Fantom X waveforms and presets in it. It would be nice if Roland made the original Fantom X stock waveforms and preset soundbanks available for download through the Roland Cloud Manager for the current generation Fantom keyboards. I would definitely grab that, even if it isn't free and I would have to purchase it.

@Eman 08 Yeah, that Integra-7 is a real beast! I think it's probably one of the best Roland sound modules ever made and there will probably not be another one like it. Now that I no longer have my Fantom S anymore, I'd like to compliment the Integra and my new Fantom-06 with either a Fantom XR rack or something similar to get those Fantom S/X Rhodes patches back. Maybe Roland could put the stock Fantom X patches in the Integra as well through a software (firmware) update. However, I don't think that's ever going to happen. They should at least make them available for the newer Fantoms though. That might not happen either. If it does, it would be a pleasant surprise.

@@kvmoore1 Yup. I would go with thr Fantom-XR if you are trying to get some of those exclusive fantom X sounds back. I still got my Fantom-XR I had since 2012. I also own the MOTIF Rack-ES, E-MU Proteus 2000 and E-MU MO Phatt. Plus the Korg Triton and Triton Extreme VST plug-ins. That's virtually every sound used from the 90s and early 2000s era on all Hip Hop and R&B records. I actually pulled the Pure Phatt card out of my Mo phatt and moved it over to my Proteus 2000. My Proteus 2000 is nearly maxed out with Roms. It's also got the Extreme Lead-1 card which is the same sounds from the Adacity 2000 a super rare sound module.
@kvmoore1 Жыл бұрын
@Eman 08 The Fantom XR is right up my alley. However, it has a well-known issue with the LCD screen failing prematurely. If there's a permanent fix for this issue, then I may still consider the Fantom XR. Otherwise, there's also the Roland Sonic Cell which has the Fantom X sound engine in it as well. That would be the alternative. You have many of the modules I used to own. I had a Triton Rack, Motif Rack (the first one, not the ES), and I also had an E-MU MP-7 with both the Pure Phatt and X-ROM chips installed. I sold and traded them all. I do still have my E-MU E4XT Ultra sampler with a ton of presets and soundbanks from most of the Proteus 2000 series modules on an external SCSI hard drive. The thing is, I haven't used it since I've owned it so far and I've had it since 2008. I plan to either put it to use soon, or sell it. I'd like to eventually put it to use and get it featured in my tracks once I get all of my gear set up the way I want it. Those particular sounds are difficult to come by these days. It's ridiculous how much those E-MU roms sell for on ebay these days!!!

As a faithful Roland user, when I say you told nothing but the truth.. After this Fantom Roland went downhill big time! I just had to purchase an X7 again and I own a Fantom 06 which sound’s engine is no where as good as the X.

@@ameeromedia5883 I know this is a late response to this post but, you right! Got rid of my FA08 and I am looking for a X8 right now lol. The warmth and overall silky sound is unparalleled, I still haven't found a VST that competes with the sound (using a Ravel Grand UAD VST ATM)
@hertechprep Жыл бұрын
@@kashdro85 Not Late to me but yesssssss! I had to sell my X7 because the guy I bought it from obviously was CLUELESS to how the keybed was very much altered (almost like it had no weights in it all AT.) I'll get another soon though, but nothing beats that sound engine. And these new Rolands are NOT cutting it!

The reason why so many people didn't read the manual was because it was a Roland manual..... And as everyone knows, reading a Roland manual makes you want to see a psychologist for trauma counselling!!!! 😅 Saying that, the Fantom X was a great workstation in the day but I was well and truly in the Korg Triton ecosystem with its much friendlier touch screen user interface.

@@DyReckProductions much as i loved Emu Systems, I never owned any of their products. I was a big Korg and Roland user and the Korg owners manuals were way better than the terrible Roland ones.
