<t>Try Expansion series SRX-06 Clasical- much better strings than any synth in market. You must use the old programs (for JV series programmed by eric persing) They are included on cd rom. for my Taste the new programs included at SRX factory are not so good than old patches.<br/> I have used for ye...

<r>Best use of part mute / unmute.<br/> Why do I need need 128 voices of polyphony if my old xp 30 must manage better poliphony (64 voices) mute parts must be midi off not just lower the volume (great joke) I can?t play more than 4 sounds with out cutting poly with a 8 part set..<br/> Easier way to ...

<t>Sorry to say but my fantom Xa ( i have `played X7 string sounds and I feel the same.) do not give me good string sounds.<br/> It?s incredible that Roland it?s still using old, recicled and reduced sound from old S760 Orchestral family . They sound good 10 years ago (original waveforms sounds real...

<t>I tested a Fantom x7 with the new Audio Xpansion and you can use the pads to mute/unmute parts. the problems is that you poliphony is wasted and must be imposible to create more than 6 sounds layers, you can ear how poliphony cuts..<br/> A solution for this problem must be found on fantom Xa.you ...

<r>Paul:<br/> <br/> This is a Fuc^%)"$ problem with Fantom xa performance mode.<br/> For some reason you can?turn mute/turn off the selected part even using swith off. Let me explain better. There is a select swith for 1-8 parts on performance (This are the new buttons not presents on X6/7/8 models)...

Currently they are building upon the JVs, for more than 12 years by now, and this is really great. Except for the wave ROM, you get the engine which is compatible with the previous ones. But I'd ...

I have used SKB hard cases on Motif ES 7 and fantom Xa and many others older synths without problems on plane. This is the first time I heard something about pressure problems.

Good luck

<r>I recently bougth a fantom xa: I?m not happy with performance mode and polyphony managment. muting parts are not really turning on/off each one.(just lowering volume instead turnig off the parts) I have much better polyphony on my old xp 30 (64 voices)<br/> <br/> I play live every day and need to...

<t>thanks for your answers, my question is still about the 8 part buttons on xa, and no present on X6 or X7,X8. I?ll plan to use fantom for live primary,and I need to turn on many patches instantly like in old xp models..<br/> I have read the manual but I?m afraid about cutting polyphony , because I...

<t>My big question is :<br/> <br/> I need to layer from 3 to 8 sounds in realtime (not scrolling over menus) like in old Jv and Xp old series, in performance mode just pushing one of the part turns on or off . <br/> I have read that fantom x can layer/split 16 parts, but, can be this in realtime / w...

thanks for your help

<t>Artemio: Are you talking about the red pads at the rigth of keyboard? can`t you use the 8 buttons below the display? <br/> (the 8 part buttons in JV/XP series are located below the display and After many years of use I had learn to change the sounds very fast with my left hand!!!)<br/> thanks <br...

<t>Hi fantom x users. I have a question for you:<br/> For many years I have used greatly the 8 part function in my roland jv90- xp 50 and xp 30. I use it a lot . I play classical music and I program a performance with 8 patches (strings/horns/woodwinds/ timpani,.....) that I can turn on off with out...
