Whats stopping Roland from making a VST application interface for the Fantom-X like they already have for the G?

Still look like pads to me. but hey, I may be going blind.

If those 16 squares are not pads, what are they?

<r>New Access Virus Mini is the product I wished roland had made instead of the sonic cell. not that the sonic cell is not bad. I just don't like the box they put it in. The next fantom rack should be housed in this type of box.<br/> <br/> Basically the fantom-x table top version of the Korg M3<br/>...

<t>Get the XP-60 <br/> <br/> 1. 4 jv-80 expansion slots<br/> <br/> 2. since you do pop/rock you probably won't be sampling.<br/> <br/> 3. better keys on the 60<br/> <br/> 4. xp-60 has a great sequencer. once you learn it<br/> <br/> But the juno-g is good too. But for your needs the xp-60 would be be...

<t>So are you sequencing with software and just the XR?<br/> <br/> <br/> I'm very comfortable using Sonar 6 and Ableton live. <br/> <br/> Ableton is my go to software for sequencing. <br/> <br/> I have over 200gigs of softsynths and vst's and I find it a bit overwhelming sometimes. Just way too many...

<t>Mission, Yes I am Black. I'm from the hood as well (Chicago) and like you I have been way past my last 5 dollars before.<br/> <br/> And yes the term "come up" can be taken both ways. <br/> I too did make a come up here in ATL. But not the come up, I hear in these records nowadays. You know as wel...

<t>Mission what you're saying is about YOUR version of the music. <br/> <br/> The "COME UP" that’s code for (I'm going to get mine and I don't care how)<br/> <br/> Having drinks that's code for (Being drunk and getting high)<br/> <br/> "Checking out some girls" is code for (seeing them all as bitche...

<t>I have enjoyed reading the replies in this post very much, even the negative ones.<br/> <br/> The actual purpose if my rant was not really all about the lack of a few drum kits. It was really about competition. Competition between the major Keyboard manufacturers. I am a Roland guy and like my be...

<t>Thunderkyss, has a good point, maybe for 98% of people who own the X, the drums are perfect. So why should Roland cater to the 2% of us B-Boyz and Dance music headz who need better drums? Well, they should not cater to us, losing that 2% wont ruin their business.<br/> <br/> Roland has been in bus...

Good Point on the ALL-in-ONE concept. Stuff would sound the same.

NIKO/MIKO ALL-in-ONE unit that you can customize with your own sounds, it eliminates sounding the same. PLus with the MV is the route I'm Going.

THE ROLAND GUY

<t>Well fellow Roland peeps. I had the answer to my problem all along. It came to me about a year ago. I mean it came like a thousand watt light bulb floating over my head it did. After reading all of your follow up to my post. The genius I rarely display came back to me like a old long lost female ...

<t>Artemio, thats what I do, I'm not a DJ anymore but I spend a lot of time diggng in the crates for drums. I dont mind that at all it's kinda part of the process thats makes it fun.<br/> <br/> But how long is Roland going to keep recycling Drums from the JV series from 1992. I will tell you how lon...

<t>Audissey you are hit it on head. I just realized that also, Thats like making a car that runs on a tank of gas forever or like a cure for diseases. There is no money in the cures for everyday problems. The money is in the treatment.<br/> <br/> They will never make us completely happy. We all have...

<t>Now that I think about Roland will never put a fantom-X sound set and 4srx in mv-8800. Doing that would for ever kill the fantom-x and what ever comes out in the future. <br/> Well maybe not kill it, but definitely hurt it. All of us Hip-Hop and R&B and Dance music producers would definitely ...
