    Very cool. I love that Roland is creating new expansions for existing hardware instead of putting out a new workstation that you have to buy to get new features. I don't mind paying for these expansions in that case because it makes sense. This is a great business model and I hope it continues. And Jack...get excited! Don't let anyone dampen your enthusiasm.

      @@michaels8607 it’s a loonnnnnggggg drawn out process, not very intuitive. Impossible to record loops and then edit due to the lack of tools. No warp or time stretch so you have to record at the tempo you are working at and commit. Even creating your own kits is such a drag. You’ll find out very quickly the shortcomings and backward step in lots of areas. On the Roland forum you are advised to add an MPC Live or One to make up for the shortcomings which is grand if you have the money. It’s not a workstation, it’s a synth so bear this in mind because it’s fooled a lot of people. Oh, and no bug updates or workflow improvements for a whole year now. No feedback from the developers either. Really poor. Some users have reported simple bugs and they have just been ignored completely. Roland have massive focus on DAW integration and using the Cloud subscription to get the most out of your instrument.

    Always thought this should be done with the Jupiter-X. A wavetable expansion that requires an external mobile device (iPad / Tablets), to work as a programmer. That would also solve the ‘small screen’, ‘menu diving hell’ gripe a lot have had. Plus more hardware wavetable options from Roland would be great. A Jupiter wavetable engine would be cool being it called, Jupiter-XYZ. Hence, XYZ axis.

    Does it allow for the installation of other branded VST's such as Synthesizer V the hyper realistic vocal singing engine?
    How about MPE the midi2 type of humanizing notes in real time?
    These are some of the grooviest tools for music composition and might fit under the hood of these giant furniture sized interfaces with its different button and fader arrays to replace a 101 typing keyboard and such.
    I dunno about what these newer fantoms can pull off, though did purchase a new fantom S way back and still use it as my go to for much as a input device.
    I prefer guitar so got a Jamstik midi guitar, and it runs directly into the fantom and does so faster with not detectable time delay, unlike when using a computer based VST softsynth as the sound engine for the guitar. After recording, then its ok to port the recorded data into the computer to mod and edit.
    It would be nice to see a hardware version such as giant hulking keyboard to overcome the reliance on menu driven functionality that causes a bottleneck in workflow.
    It should emulate the full capability of a DAW with all the luxuries kept in one place within the shell of the instrument.
    Be interesting to see Roland have another go at modelling a new MPE capable midi guitar that has everything built in, even full high end speakers and computer/s under the pickguard, various sensors for triggers and morphers of notes during performance.
    If they were wiser, they would hire an idiot like me in the R&D dept as a creative director.

    This looks like a playful piece of kit. I also do not dig Waldorfs. Their 'sweetspot' seems to lie a bit deep, with little musicality inbetween.

    Yea, combining 16 parts will not work because you run out of polyphony quick. I love my fantom, but I'd treat it as maybe 4 part multi timbral.

    Excellent engine. It's been out for absolutely ages though - and followed up by absolutely nothing for the Fantom by Roland! Odd that Roland are out on the road promoting this now, rather than, say, launching a JD-800 expansion, for the Fantom (which has been available on other Roland models for months now). Seems like the Fantom is unfortunately become a bit stale as a supposedly evolving platform. It's been a year since it's last OS update too, so not even any new sequencer or usability tweaks either.

      Coming from years of that setup (controller, computer, plugins), I asked myself the same thing when considering a workstation. There’s room for both, and it depends on how serious you are about creating your own signature sounds, whether you're interested in a creative workflow without reliance on a computer. I thought I never would get a workstation again. Yet, I did.
      Why? A midi controller is pretty useless without a computer or synth modules. Good plugins aren't cheap. Plugins bring latency and the more there are, the worse it gets. Plugins can break with OS updates. A single sound that you can generate with FANTOM's 16 stackable tones, individually customizable effects and routing, all with no latency or CPU cost on your computer basically makes a DAW more simple to use. There's plenty of downsides to the FANTOM compared to sequencers that offer linear recording (like previous Fantoms), samplers that offer real time performance capabilities (like the Boss looper). I have a decent list of frustrations with the FANTOM sequencing workflow. Nothing nobody else hasn't already mentioned.
      I agree with @vithaj92 that it is hard to compare the two. I see room for both depending on what pleases you.

    What is the actual programming language that Roland went with for the processor? It's perhaps an android type of variant within a added type of roland shell?
    Anyone hacked these to boost/modernize/simplify the functionality?
    Are there a bunch of lawyers that would legally be allowed to lock me in a room filled with steroidal murderous sociopaths if anyone modded a roland product?
    Sure. electrocution by means of removing the panel to hack the device is a concern, though one should not have to worry about savages in 3pc suits harvesting a vital prized kidney or sending me to the chair for modding a musical instrument.
