Do you know when it would be available? March?

I'm also glad that I didn't order a Krome, Kross or a MOXF (I was a bit indecisive about which one...), and now I'm going to wait for more info before I fully decide.

I've been told to expect it at the end of March - which is not too long away :)

Also, demo units should be available in the next week or so.

I bought an MOXF an couple of months ago, and since I have an Integra7 I would not go for the FA.
I was hoping for new axial sound sets for the FA and that they would be compatible with the Integra7?

If I had a MOXF, I wouldn't go for the FA either, and the MOXF is superior (should say different) in some departments, like the 6 ARPs opposed to ONE on the FA, although the FA has a dedicated Drum Pattern not based on ARP... and 4 Audio Channel USB/AUDIO Card.
But the FA seems to have a better sequencer, a SAMPLER that the MOXF doesn't have and a very nice color display...

According to the info given on the available demos, All integra-7 sounds on the AXIAL site seem all compatible with the new FA-06/06

According to the info we have, further FA dedicated sounds will be added at a later date (maybe not free)

I do like what Roland is doing now! This FA is a winner at that price and all that it has. I don't believe that it's a flagship workstation! I have use a Integra -7 before very good Top of the line sound with 2XLR outs 8TRS outs=10 , comes with 6000 plus sounds 12SRX boards and cost $2000 with no keys or SEQ. Just because you can load the same sound files don't mean it's a Integra 7 with a keyboard and SEQ for less. This FA cost less than a $1000 USA dollars than the Flagship Fantom G ! So roland may have something up here! If they are smart Roland will hold the true flagship workstation till summer NAMM! Just pick up from the Fantom g body/screen with full Integra 7 sound head plus 256 note G SEQ SuperNatural organ for a &1000 more than the FA. Then i 'll depart with my G7! Name it the Fantegra!

Which in fact is the exact same import procedure as on the integra-7 ;-)

I thought exactly the same when I saw this FA-06/08 coming to light before the NAMM show...
But due to their economic situation, I don't think Roland will do it...but I was wrong before, so...let's wait a few more days

How about "V... yours!!!" with a German V (is pronounced "F") :P

Or "Supercalifantomistic XP - all your dough" -scious. (check Julie Andrews film for reference)

Something I did find interesting - The Roland Specs state that the Master Comp effect can be alternately used as an insert effect! (accessing from a selection of 78 effects) :-)
