Nice USB connectivity to the PC.

$1200

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use. ROland even posts a Cubase patch file on their web site. And Roland techs will walk you thru setting it up with Cubase (over the phone).

Hasn't broke down on me yet, but I heard there were defects in the early models.

SOUNDS

The sound quality is pretty good. Nice variety to choose from.

OVERALL OPINION

It's definitely one of my staples in the studio.

Best compromise with a wind controller

Everything has already been said on the Fantom XR
I will not dwell on the technical features which have already been described
I focused on use with a wind controller Akai EWI and Yamaha WX

UTILIZATION

Through edieur it is quite easy to adapt the sounds for use with a wind controller
It is preferable to equip the card Fantom XR

SOUNDS

The structure and architecture of the Fantom XR sound is certainly one of the best for using a wind controller. It allows a perfect control over the sounds.
With the addition of sound banks programmed by Matt Traum (Mr Patchman) Fantom XR is the ultimate weapon for any user of wind controller. (Sounds like the brass, woodwinds, are among the...…

The structure and architecture of the Fantom XR sound is certainly one of the best for using a wind controller. It allows a perfect control over the sounds.
With the addition of sound banks programmed by Matt Traum (Mr Patchman) Fantom XR is the ultimate weapon for any user of wind controller. (Sounds like the brass, woodwinds, are among the most realistic I've heard, even better than on-7 lIntegra yet newer.
Lead synth sounds are also very powerful and péchus and allow for very expressive solo.

OVERALL OPINION

I have for over 2 years now and never get tired of using my EWI 4000S.
I even considered buying a Fantom XR second

I like many mattendais OF USE vritable a mutation of the Fantom X SERIES, in fact, the piano sounds are not as good as with a terribly mdium means legonomie gnrale would be of even more complex, as the Pliades of features that we did do, I do not think the cest quil must put the accent. East Synths sounds too, the Fantom XR Naura not have time to make the MOTIF Rack YAMAHA Lombre.

OVERALL OPINION

The XR Rack is the height of the keyboard SERIES, jarrte the wash. Premire still has a print. It IS NOT the best.
Fantom sound scary ;-)
