Does it change brightness when turning the 'LCD Contrast'? If it does, then could be known common issue with the Fantom X LCD screen going very dark after few years due to the voltage inverter board going bad (easy to replace using part 2148 Inverter board Roland). However if it's only backlight the...

I'm looking to update my old Fantom X6 and I wonder if the Fantom series can do sample editing while in scene/combo mode? Something the X6 can do and enables changing the start sample point to analyze a sample and play along. I am not familiar with the Fantom X6. However, if I understand you correc...

Hi,

I'm looking to update my old Fantom X6 and I wonder if the Fantom series can do sample editing while in scene/combo mode?
Something the X6 can do and enables changing the start sample point to analyze a sample and play along.

Thanks!

I was unable to get this to work for me. I updated the ini file but windows would not let me complete the install and ask me to uninstall and then reboots. It there another workaround? Windows 8.1, x6, machine, Tascam and m-audio 1814 Thanks Are you sure you ininstalled drivers first and then you b...

Make sure you run uninstall first and let it reboot. Only then start setup. Also what I forgot to mention make sure you run setup.exe as admin (right-click on the file and choose run as administrator). So it's: 1) run uninstall first if you had previous failed install and let it reboot 2) change INF...

Got the driver to work on my Win8.1 / Fantom-XR like this: Edit the RDIF1045.inf file Copy the info from [Roland.NTamd64.6.2] so it looks like this: [Roland.NTamd64.6.3] ;; Windows8.1 %RDID0045DeviceDesc%=RDID0045Install, USB\VID_0582&PID_006D ; FANTOM-X Disable the check for signed drivers - f...

Anyone tried to workaround with Midi to USB converter? I could see why Roland is not updating driver for a 10 year old product but seems it wouldn't be that much work to update the driver:-(. I see Roland replied on their 8.1 blog post on this: "At this point, it appears that Roland Japan will ...

I think you will be waiting along time to get any kind of update to either the fantom or FA. but dont discount your X just yet. Load time can be improved if you use smaller CF cards 128mb should be enough and treat each cf like projects. at this point the FA is your man as an addon to the X and wit...

I really like the FA but not being able to import new sounds (e.g. CP70, DX7 rhodes, Oberheim analog sounds...) is an issue for me. The FA is already capable of creating these sounds either thru SRX expansions or using the SN synth. Roland never produced any competitor sounds obviously because of l...

It appears Fantom G is discontinued so I wonder if Roland is abandoning workstations with sound engine supporting user samples. I really like the FA but not being able to import new sounds (e.g. CP70, DX7 rhodes, Oberheim analog sounds...) is an issue for me. Did Roland make any statements if they d...

Never had problems before with skydrive so no idea what's going on. Using a different live account I'm able to navigate through lucienk skydrive. Can you open this:

I checked and it's public. I just signed out of live and still can get download working. Does this link work for you:

Hope you don't mind me asking...seems like you would really know. I have a MacBookPro 10.5.8 and just connected my Fantom S88 for the first time to import AIF files from my computer. (using ProTools8LE to tweak samples) Following the instructions, I opened the TMP>AUDIO IMPORT file on,my computer, ...

The link in my blog page is correct. Seems some issues with skydrive but the general link keeps working: http://lucienk.office.live.com/self.aspx/Public/Fantom%20X%20Sample%20Import%20Tool/FantomSampleImportBeta95.zip Note these are not temporary uploads. Older Fantom versions are there now for coup...

Great:-).
