<t>You must be right. I didn't even think of that one!<br/> <br/> It's not a big deal right now. For the most part, I'm going to be mapping the keys to the Fantom's pads to input drum patterns. <br/> <br/> If or when I get to play around with some soft synths, I guess I can just pretend the first oc...

<r>Hi everyone,<br/> <br/> As you can tell, I have some problems using my Fantom X8 as a midi controller, and let me explain.<br/> <br/> I just put together a new DAW, using Ableton Live 5 and NI Battery 2. I've installed the USB-MIDI drivers and that went fine. The Fantom does show up in Live, and ...

So True is my most favorite Fantom piano patch. I find the Ultimate Grand to be a little muted on the bottom and high end, but it's still useful.

That would be good. But I check this site so often that there are only a handful of new posts each time I come here, and I go through most of them just for the heck of it.

<t>As far as I know, the SRX cards do share polyphony with the Fantom, since they are just wave expansion cards, without their own processing engine. So, they would be counted into the 64 voice polyphone of the FS. <br/> <br/> I know that some of the Yamaha expansion cards have their own engine, and...

<t>If you want your guitar to be sent through the Fantom's effects, just plug the guitar cable into the Left Audio Input of the Fantom. Press the Mix In (I think that's what it's called) button and adjust your levels accordingly. Then play around with the effects. <br/> <br/> If your amp is connecte...

<t>The Fantom X keyboards have a PC Card slot. PC card is also known as PCMCIA cards. In the case of the FX, the PC card would be flash memory, to store samples and patches. Usually, people get a PC Card adapter so that they can use Compact Flash (or other flash memory) cards in the PC Card slot. <b...

Thanks guys!

Before I got the firebox, I just ran the outs straight to the monitors, and I never really noticed this, so it's no problem at all. I was just being anal when I started seeing the audio tracks.

Now back to making some music!

<t>Thanks for replying! I completely understand what you're saying, and it does make sense. I tried testing that out also. For certain patches, going to the upper registers lessens the uneven a little. But for some other patches, the left output is almost uniformly higher. <br/> <br/> It's not that ...

<t>Hi everyone, I've been lurking around here for a while and I've absorbed a lot of information from everyone here. I bought an X8 back in December, and I've been very happy with it. <br/> <br/> I've been running the stereo outs of the X8 to a set of KRK RP5 monitors, and nothing was connected to m...
