I just received a message that made me a bit suspicious...
Thanks for contacting us.
The Roland Cloud Connect is only compatible with the Jupiter-X and Jupiter-Xm.

Please let us know if you have further questions concerning this matter.

A new fantastic product that leaves Fantom behind ?

Evolving platform...just for the next two years, 2019-2021 ?

Let's see...
I believe compability with Roland Cloud Connect will be a part of the next Fantom-update and am optimistic about further updates. I doubt people at Roland support are allowed to say anything about what's coming next, maybe they even don't know.

I messaged them about the new product being or not compatible with Fantom, since I had pre-ordered it based on the information shown below announcing that "...what you need to give your Roland synth access to the fabulous Roland Cloud library." and "So for owners of a Jupiter-X, Jupiter-Xm or Fantom it’s a bit of a no-brainer.", not asking anything, but of course, about what the future might bring.

Sadly, Fantom is not compatible according to Roland.

You are referencing a site written by music industry pseudo journalists. They obviously don't know. You need to reference the Roland press release, and there you will find no reference to the Fantom:

For the next update i would like the vocal designer model, more than one arpeggio, pad changes with foot pedal (up, down) and the Roland Cloud Connect. Please Roland, you can do it
