The apr function and phrases are not as useful on the Fantom G as I find on the M3/XS stuff. I use the Fantom as an instrument and sequencer mainly.
Fantom G & X7, Motif XS6, M3, V-synth, JP8000, M1, Wavestation, Radias, Nord Lead 2X, Karma, Snow, electribes and other groove boxes.

At present I barely use it due to the limitations. I am aware that Yamaha holds some kind of patent for arpeggiation, but there should be some kind of creator function available similar to that available on Fruity Loops.

I think the main reason why I don't use it is in its limited use for me, however I find it silly that the Fantom X has an arp editor while the G does not. It is quite possible that I would have more use for it if I could create tabla like percussive patterns as I work with a lot of Indian Raga / Tala styles.

I'm looking forward downloading them, once Roland releases the update.

Maybe later on if I have the time to mess with it.

[X] 3. I (kind of) use it but don't find it (AT ALL) useful.

An arpeggiator that can't be programmed is useless to me. When Roland decides to give me my money's worth by including this rudimentary feature, I'll use it daily.
