Man now I know how you feel, good thing you had people helping you out with the unboxing! I had a futon near my area, and DD my unboxing on the futon and placing it in my table. These keyboards are Very Hard, and when you get it, let's hope it arrived safely to your destination, mine worked well on 2nd time. This thing is really gorgeous and the composition of music you can do on this really goes beyond your Imagination! Enjoy it! 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Lennon & McCartney Fanatic That’s entirely subjective , I’ve heard opinions that vary , to me the Vpiano is the best digital piano sound money can buy, Demos often do not do it justice as its designed to be tweaked , the only other piano sound that I use is spectrasonics keyscape but the V Piano is my number 1 . I have owned a Yamaha motif and still use a Nord Electro 2 . The only sound that needs improvment is the clav on the fantom , however I was able to tweak and edit it to sound as good as my nord , If you can edit and create sounds the potential is limitless .
Lennon & McCartney Fanatic it has a good arpeggiator but it’s nothing like Yamahas which has more presets , I prefer to map/play my own . For arps and FM synthesis montage would be a good choice , I’m considering getting a Modx someday just for the FM synthesis
Vaaaaaaooooooo Roland FANTOM 8 very very nice 💖💖💖 Roland Fantom 8 very very Excellent High quality All Sound Roland Fantom is a Studio 👍👍👍 Roland Fantom 8 My Love ❤️❤️❤️
@@ochiglobal2418 Roland is Very Very Excellent at all Synthesizer and Workstation I Have a Roland Fa 08 Fa 08 Very Very Excellent High quality All Sound and Material BUT Roland Fantom 8 is Number one 👍👍👍
My Fantom is going back, screen locks up, half cook instrument with lots of midi bugs. Roland really screwed this one up just like the Fantom G. Get a Yamaha Montage or Modx, much more stable keyboard.
Sorry to hear about the Roland Fantom you had,im trying to choose between it and the Yamaha Montage 8 in white whats your opinion on the Piano samples on the Roland.
@@paulallenMacca Roland has amazing samples hands down, different from KORG and YAMAHA. Their "standard" instruments sound very real. I've used the Roland JV 1080 and the 5080 rack units and the standard drum, bass, piano acoustic sounds are very lifelike. The synths in the Fantom-8 are FAT and RICH. You can record them straight into a DAW and not really need any tweaking. But if you do choose to tweak in the keyboard, you can go anywhere. If theres anything you want me to make a video about with the keyboard, just leave a reply and I'll shoot a an upcoming video. I'll record the piano sounds right into a DAW and add those parts to the video so you can really hear the sounds.
Roland actually has a major sound patch update just released. They most likely will be adding sounds for the next few years. I totally understand your concern. But its only a few months out, so I'm sure more updates will come. The new patch updates are on Rolands site. Synths, drums, keys, horns. Its a good update.
@@TheCbone1979 The new OS update has a few new features packed in. The synths and sound design possibilities on Fantom8 seem endless. I love yamaha but the only words I can use for Roland synths are Rich and Lush it sounds amazing.

Thank you!
Congratulations ! it’s my favorite I’m loving mine
Yes, first Roland workstation. The Possibilities to design sounds, efx and routing seem amazing so far!
Whats your opinion on the Piano Samples on the Roland Fantom 8, im trying to choose between the Fantom 8 and Yamaha Montage 8 in white.

@@JustinCarey Thanks for the info i like the look of the Fantom ive been trying to find out how many Arpeggiators the Fantom haste Montage has 10,000.

Thanks for graciously donating your wisdom.
thank you I have been looking for a video that shows the back outputs clear and your unboxing did the trick now to buy the right cables
That was the idea. I always like to see the back outputs because its difficult to see them at the store.
gut gemacht 👍
Cool that you involved the kids/family in the process - exciting for everyone, eh? :)
Its important to involve the little ones. My piano teacher had us singing door to door at Christmas and playing piano in Senior homes.
Congratulations... thank you
This or the yamaha montage 8?
Vaaaaaaooooooo

Sir I'm from India, and looking to buy this in a month.
Should I go for it ? Please do reply sir :)
Definitely , its a great machine! Roland has added some good sounds the past year for download.

Sorry to hear that. I've had 2 Yamahas so I wanted a little change. I love Roland sounds! Hope things work out with your purchase.

@@paulallenMacca ..... Please check out Korg Kronos 2 it is the best workstation money can buy.......
You dint even turn it on
Yes, he did turn it on.
Actually i think the sounds on Roland FA 08 is far better than this Fantom 8 or Fantom G

Rolend fetam g6
yamaha montage better
How so? Haven't had much time with the Montage.
Yamaha - sterile, safe, generic, realistic. Roland - magical, risky, original, realistic.
