Don't forget when using the keys the velocity isn't set to a specific like the pads are. I think the pads are set between 100-127 by default, the keys are how hard you press them (assuming that you are playin the sample with the middle C key).

<t>If it is at all possible I would get the VS2400 or 2480 they have the option to connect a monitor, mouse and keyboard. I'd also recommend getting a pc/mac for editting, software synths, arranging, their limits are endless.<br/> <br/> I don't have the chunk of change you have, but I'm working with...

wut do you mean by cards?

sound card

memory card

x-mas card :~\

Well Congrats,

It just the begin for you my friend, I've had mine for about 10 months, and I still haven't use all of its capabilities. I to am a hip hopper, as we speak (write) i'm building my studio around the fantom.

not really, just the board, power cable, manuals, sample CD and Fantom Editor CD, or at least mine did. I talked them down in price for offering me the floor model.

<t>Mr. Lays,<br/> I take a simalar approach, I too make music based on moods (feelings). My stand point is if a CD has all songs with the same feelling, you'll grow tired of hereing it. But if that same CD has tracks with different moods on it, then 1 day you might listen to tracks 1-7-11-15, anothe...

Yes it serves as your sound card (hardware dongle for pro tools). I don't actually know anyone with an M-Box, but my people use the Digi001, 002 and HD24 protools systems.

I would say its as good as any other sound card aimed at the semi-pro home studio.

<t>Wutz goin on fellas,<br/> <br/> I thought I'd jump and give my 2 cents. I seem to use samples more when using the pc to make a beat (w/reason, fl studio), than I do with the fantom.<br/> <br/> I found that mixing the kicks with a synth bass or tackin different kicks, I can usually get the sound i...

the same goes just in reverse, and exclude the audio part

<t>go in to menu/system/sync set the mtc or midi option from master to slave-midi or slave-mtc. make sure you have some midi cables. <br/> <br/> load the song, sync to protools, solo or assignment each track to one of the four outputs on the fantom, go to the next track(s) and do the same until all ...

<t>Why not dump the tracks into the program (laptop) using midi/mtc?<br/> <br/> To me its easier and it'll line up.<br/> <br/> If its an 8 bar loop record 16 bars and cut at 9, and loop from 9 through 17. This way it won't skip a beat. I've found that looping from 1 thru 9 I get a hickup as it loops...

<t>As with any instrument, if you tweak it the right way you can usually get the sound your lookin for. I own a Fantom S, my folks own the motif. We did it this way so if by request someone wanted to use the motif, fantom or triton we had one. <br/> <br/> My opinion is Fantom has the sickest bass, s...

<t>Despite what anyone else says, "I LOVE MY FANTOM". I've had it almost a year and i'm still learnin its features. I will admit i was disappointed that i couldn't eq or apply effect to each individual tracks, but i've learned to live with it and work around it. They all got there strong points, bas...

<r>Yes You Can. <E>:-)</E> <br/> Actually, you can record Part mutes and um-mutes. <br/> <br/> 1) In Performance or Patch mode, press MENU and select System. Ensure that in the MIDI tab the "Transmit Edit Data" is set to "ON." If it is not, change it to "ON" and hit F8 (System Write). <br/> 2) Go to...

Does this only apply to the X or can the S also do this?
