Fantom editor
Re: Fantom editor
A user on Gearspace made a post a few months ago that he was working on something, but as yet I don’t think anything has been released. This was the user - I suspect if he completes it it will show up on his website:

I agree - this is something that is needed - ordering sounds and scenes right now is painful.

Re: Fantom editor
It is...indeed.
I have run out of empty slots.
Backing up everything and restoring, or exporting and importing are ways to be made good but with utmost caution.
Last week a scene I have been working on for hours was destroyed and still don't know how it could have happen, as it was ok when powering down at the end of day but was faulty the next day after first start, and It was only recovered with much effort just thanks to a picture I have taken of the orchestration by chance, how lucky I was, recovering the tones used on each zone one by one taking the picture as reference and while digging along several backups previously made. I had been working some good ten hours on those eight partials, matching everything to my liking and suddenly finding them disappeared or missing was very hard to overcome.
So I am taking pictures of every scene, just in case...

Re: Fantom editor
Roland Cloud produces tons of new material, such as those .SDZ patches. Aside of the Editor, which is important but not essential, what a Fantom user really needs is a Librarian. I bought almost all those patches (Lifetime key for 90+ 16 patches banks) and I’m stuck because reordering all that material is nerve wracking.

Re: Fantom editor
Now, after a very good night's sleep and while breakfast approaches the table at a steady pace, I realize, in order to delete those unused tones, we could go (where we go one we go all) scene by scene placing one, two or three stars on each tone. I think they are five-pointed stars, but I have to check it... might also be dependable on the system version, shouldn't they ?
So...in a nutshell, after going bank after bank, and zone after zone, I mean Ax128x16, plus Bx128x16, plus Cx128x16 and finally Dx128x16, all used tones (8192 at most) will be marked (almost being born under a wandering star that will prevent them from being wiped away at a later stage) and now, please, simply patiently sit, make yourself comfortable and start initializing tones seen lacking any star. Tally-ho.
Oh, before they all are gone with the wind, let me play...
Here starts a scene having a zone with a ready to leave trumpet playing Bb, profound sadness in it, partly because it is about to be erased, as said, but mostly because it plays Bb, along some quietly rolling drums, nobody knowing for sure whether getting closer to fight or about to fade away leaving us all in peace forever; all of it supported by a repeated humming from the male choir (I just backed you up twice, yes, each on a different device) while the female choir highs, closer to us, drive everyone nuts into grief...Some bells are a must, they sing in the distance, arising the feeling of inmensity...thundering now and then over the always unreachable far distant horizon but also bringing waves right on our frightened skin, no place to hide.
====================================
No star, no reason to stay;
I might need you back, time will tell;
I just backed you up twice,
yes, each on a different device;
be a good tone,
stay quiet and relax,
and wave goodbye to those
embraced by five-pointed stars.
Missing you...
Missing you...
Godspeed.

Thank you....thank you...
Easy but lenghty ? Don't go telling you don't have the time...
Look: 8192 tones being offered a minute each (three stars instead of one because you felt like doing so) turns into just a bit over seventeen days (add one hour and 36 minutes if you need utmost precision down to the second: 8192/60/8 is nothing but the whole truth) if you do spend four hours in the morning, do two in the afternoon and just grab another couple in the late evening.
Start now and you are done by 2022.
😃😃😃😃😃
But wait a minute !!!!
Imagine you are now done the cleaning, feel very happy down to the bones, it is also December 28th (Spanish people are understanding) and Roland releases V3.00 that includes an editor...
🤪🤪🤪🤪
Oh, well, it could be it was V2.6, no editor; never mind and then you easily start the cleaning, knowing the horizon you are confronting with based on the above mentioned calculation, happy to the bones; time passes slowly up there in the mountains, but see: it is now April 1st (this time is your turn, English people, to understand and smile) and Roland releases V3.0 with the editor...
🤪🤪🤪🤪
No? It was still version 2.7 and no editor yet...?
Well, well, well... hurry, December 28th is round the corner again...!!!!
So happy to see all of them smiling, no need to ask about their whereabouts, understanding as they gather around this must-have tone editor as time goes from Decembers to Aprils !!!!
Hey, this looks like a never ending arpeggio, found by chance ?
Oh, no, no and no.
It is a Roland Fantom 8.
Must have been thanks to a simple twist of fate.
