Re: Pattern Question

It makes me wonder if the people who developed Fantom's sequencer even work for the company anymore.

Re: A Fantom librarian is essential

Agree. Thanks for your support. What leaves me speechless is that on dedicated Facebook groups I’m made fun of my proposal. Consider the source then march on. You are totally correct. A lot of us have run out of room but don't have the time or patience to delete things one at a time. Where the is t...

Re: V 3.00 ... Sequencer

All true about the G but Roland abandoned support for it way too soon. Sure it had better sequencer features than Fantom but resolution was too course to duplicate exact timing as inputted with quantize turned off. Also the GUI was substandard compared to the Fantom. Hopefully Roland will revisit th...

Re: Click light

I have stuck a small rectangular piece of black tape over the tempo button. Just enough light leaks out the sides to still be able to recognize the tempo. Now, Tone Wheel organ is a whole other thing. My gawd, who at Roland thought up that fireworks display? Unfortunately my little rectangular piece...

Re: Z-core : A single envelope for all the partials ?

Set your PAD MODE button located under the pads to #3 which turns pads into 2 rows with top row lit red and second row lit yellow. You can now turn editing on and off for each partial by selecting the second row yellow pads. To turn them all on, depress the first yellow pad and hold it down while se...

Re: Zone 1 Volume suddenly drops ...

I've had problems with a few of the physical knobs "jumping around". A tiny squirt of CRC 2-26 and then working it in solves the problem. CRC 2-26 has been around for at least 40 years and is plastic safe. It says on the can that it "improves electrical properties" and that is a ...

Re: Mounting the Fantom At An Angle

Sennheiser says of the HD 660 S: "They fully reveal their potential when connected to the balanced outputs of a dedicated headphone amplifier such as the Sennheiser HDV 820 or to the balanced output of a mobile digital audio player." I'll second that. I ended up going with the iFi ZEN CAN ...

Re: Mounting the Fantom At An Angle

Good comments all. Fantom is now flat. I will try that for awhile and see the results on my body and my mind. My goal is to get the instrument, and even the self, to disappear completely. Staying with one instrument for a long time helps immensely, hence the necessity for Roland to correct the imped...

Update: Mounting the Fantom At An Angle

Well as Jim Morrison would say, This Is The End. Of the slanted Fantom experiment, that is; I believe the earth has at least a few more years in her. After months and months of no problems, my right shoulder started calling very plaintively and I listened. So what to do? Well, I went out and spent t...

Re: Sequencing filters and effects Fantom 8

You might want to join this Roland Facebook page and ask that question. I recently asked a few questions about Logic on that page and got good answers.

Re: Question for DAW users, if you please....

I am using Zenology Pro (free so far) without internet connection and it is fully functional. As long as you don't have a problem initially downloading from Roland Cloud, it should also work for you. Not sure of time period for free Zenology Pro. I've been using it for about 7 months now. Maybe some...

Neither FL Studio nor Zenology requires you to be on line once everything has been downloaded and installed on your computer.

Re: Question for DAW users, if you please....

FGM, I'm using FL Studio to access Roland's Zenology VST which is a plug-in available for free (at the moment) from Roland Cloud Manager. Once you have access to Zenology, you automatically have access to every factory sound that comes with Fantom plus all of the EXZ modules. You can modify and audi...
