  • Tutorial #12: This is Part 2 of two videos on integrating the Fantom 0 keyboard with a computer. In this video, I load a MIDI file into my DAW (cakewalk), and I play the clarinet solo from my DAW into the Fantom 0.

    This is the best thing I've seen done on the fantom or any keyboard. Please keep producing these incredible videos. Thank you so much.

    Thank you for your great tutorials! You mention at 3:30 the instruments defined in the zone will be reset when the keyboard is connected or the sample is started. This is also the case for me. Could you please explain how the instruments defined in the selected scene are retained?

      Hi - I meant to say that the instrument selected in the *DAW* resets to whatever patch is sent to it, but in this case that doesn't matter since I'm not going to use the DAW to make any sound - I'm using the FANTOM for that. If you tell me what you're trying to do I'm happy to take another look!

      @@contemporarysynth Hi Paul, I am trying to import a midi file (Money by Pink Floyd) that I found in the Internet.
      Unfortunately, after connecting to the PC and playing the file on Cakewalk, the layer settings on the Fantom 0 are deleted. Is it possible to overwrite instrument settings in the midi file in order to use the midi file again at a gig? I can send you the midi-file if you need it

    • @contemporarysynth
      @contemporarysynth  5 місяців тому

      I just recreated this (I think) on my system. It seems to work best if you set the Cakewalk patch to None, so it doesn't override the keyboard tone, and set the Cakewalk channel to the Zone you're going to use on the FANTOM (e.g., channel 2 for Zone 2). Be sure to set the Cakewalk channel output to the FANTOM (with the ASIO driver selected in Preferences). You might have to try a few before it works. And be sure the channel volume is up! When you pick a FANTOM patch/voice you can save it with your scene. Once all that's set, it should work every time. Sorry if you've tried all that already! I'm happy to try out the midi file, if you think that's part of the problem: contemporarysynth@gmail.com. Good luck!

    Thanks . So to clarify if I have a DAW and it has a midi track recorded into the DAW I can do what you did here and play that midi into one the fantoms tracks and record it in the Fantom sequencer in real time?
    I have ezdrummer 3 and it has a huge library of humans in midi form playing drum tracks. Very sophisticated. I also have ezbass which is the same it has midi files you can slides and mutes and ghost notes as they are real players so I was hoping to record these midi tracks into the Fantom sequencer to play back the internal Fantom drum and bass sounds. Have I got that right what your doing here? I don't want to take the computer and DAW out on the road with me if possible. Thanks so much i really love your videos they are unlike other ones and are incredibly useful. Others don't seem to do the real practical stuff , real world stuff like you do. It's awesome so thanks again

      Sorry - thought I had replied to you! Everything you said was exactly right. Hopefully you got it working by now! You can also load the midi file to your keyboard via thumbdrive, though you have to convert it to SMF (standard midi file) first. I haven't tried that myself, but there's quite a bit on it in the manual.

    To connect the keyboard to the daw software you used (clarkwelk), do you use a sound card, or is it connected directly? I actually thought that this keyboard was only able to work with Ableton, Logic Pro, fl studio or mainstage. Now I notice that any daw can work with the keyboard.
    I say this because I want to upgrade my current keyboard, a Roland Juno DS, to a Fantom O.

    • @contemporarysynth

      Hi! In the video, I was just using a USB cable and the laptop's native sound card. No extra hardware or software. You're exactly right: the keyboard will work with any DAW. But only for basic MIDI functions (which are still a lot). It gives you more functionality with the other DAWs you listed - like seeing DAW faders on the FANTOM-0 screen.

    Which drum kits do you mean, that you don’t find inspiring? Fantom-0’s kits or Ableton’s kits?

    • @georgeharoldepp
      @georgeharoldepp Рік тому

      Ah … got it. You found Ableton’s kits lacking inspiration. I guess everything can be tweaked.

    Dayum dude. This is SO basic and very inefficient MIDI-usage....
