    Best Roland lesson out there for Fantom X. You got it down pat!! Easy to understand instructions and excellent camera angle. This lesson is so help. I just got a Fantom X and need this type instruction. A visual tutor is so much better than the manuals. You've provided a great service. Thanks for sharing. God bless!!!!

      Im still lost trying to record a bassline and then layer the tracks. Theres not much info on this [that I can find]
      Ive learnt myself quite a few Piano pieces such as Moonlight Sonata 3rd Mvt [ This took me at least 2,000+ HOURS] I was obsessed with it: Also, Mozarts Turkish March and Chopins Nocturnes and a few others.

    Hey Ezra, really loved the Fantom X8 tutorial, you have a real laid back delivery which helped to make the Fantom seem much more accessible, I tend to use my DAW with a bunch of soft synths and the Fantom is mainly just a controller (what a waste right).
    Thanks again for sharing, you play some lovely licks, I'd love to add them to my repertoire!, maybe covered in another video?
    Take care Ezra,

    Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've had my Fantom X8 for 2 years also and I still didn't know how to record much less layer and mix sounds. I would do the hard way by writting down the notes on paper and such. Thanks again, and God bless you too! =)

    Help! Pls tell me what I'm doing wrong. When I try to record a second instrument in another track - say piano was first recorded in track one and I want to add guitar on a another track - the piano on track one 1 plays as the sound of the new instrument (violin in this case) no matter what I choose. In other words, everytime I add a new track, the previous one also plays as the second instrument... frustrating because I can't layer different instruments and it just sopunds like mush. Thanks!

  • @EzraBufford

    Boy you make it look soooo simple. Until last week I use(d) staff paper to write all my compositions, and a typewriter to do my lyrics. Seriously. I did buy a Yamaha PSR293 so I could learn to use an electronic keyboard last year, but now I am COMPLETELY LOST. I thought I would buy a music software program for my laptop, but I can't figure that out either. So now I just purchased a Fantom X8, and would LOVE to do what you do...but what the hell is a bit map, or gain or mixer? Terminology,please?

    Puedes ver por ejemplo DEPECHE MODE (que son un icono de la musica con teclados) siempre han tenido en sus filas teclados como roland JUPITER 8, Moog's, obviamente EMU-Emulator, Emu, Emax, AKAI, pero Yamaha solo usaron el DX7....Y desde que salió Alan y cambio su musica es que han comenzado a meter algo d Yamaha..

I remember trying to learn the USB way of transferring music to the computer but ended up erasing my whole Christmas music CD I recorded on that keyboard. So you know was hurt! The CD is on CDBaby but if I wanted to add to it, I blew that. lol

    Actually I don't know the differences, of course the number of keys and in case of the X8 balanced keys, but you should find exact discriptions on the onlinemusikstores. I tink in case of updates an extrasound there is no great difference, maybe in the samplerom and the banks fpr SRX-expansionboards.

But, from what im experiencing doesn't matter if im in PATCH, MIXER, or LAYER mode it always switches to the most recent instrument! You would think MIXER mode would be able to record multiple instruments & sounds being that its MIXING mode & it already has multiple sounds PRESET into it! IDK?? Maybe its something in the "settings" somewhere that you have to TURN ON or OFF?? IF you find anything out let me know!!!
