Supernatural Drums For Fantom? [Request]

I'm not sure how other people feel about this, but I feel like the drums on the Fantom could be a little bit better in some areas, mostly the acoustic drums. I know you can load samples and the like, but I was wondering how everyone else was on the idea of having SuperNatural drums from the Fantom G or even the Roland V-Drums. I think the it's one of the few sonic areas where the Fantom struggles a little bit is having a wide variety of convincing acoustic drums. Just a suggestion for Roland and would love to know what the community's feedback is on this? Thanks! :D

Also the supernatural acoustic electric and distorted guitar. In fact, i don't understand why they don't put every supernatural acoustic tone they ever created (the ones in the Integra) inside the Fantom. That would become the ultimate Roland machine. I don't get it.

Because they need to keep selling Integra7 which is still in catalogue ;-)

Integra 7 does not offer any adjustment in the keyboard range, according to its owner's manual and to my surprise.

I first thought to buy It for the EXT parts in Fantom but since INT and EXT keyboard ranges are currently matched to each other, also to my surprise, then Integra 7 turns nearly useless if one is planning to use INT+EXT, that is, BOTH under ADVANCED, that was added to ZONE INT/EXT CONTROL from System program Ver 2.0.

So a double bass using C2-C5 in Integra 7 and a violin in Fantom going G3-G7 is now impossible under the same zone.

I'm agree; Integra 7 is the Roland synth with the biggest Supernatural sound collection.
Supernatural Drums are missing on Fantom and SRX01 (nice acoustic drums too) is missing too.

But Spectrasonics collaborated with Roland to create SRX01, it's same problem with signature sounds (bass and drums) on SRX07.
Supernatural Drums use V-Drum technology on Integra 7.

If I am understanding you correctly, you should be able to set the keyboard range for each part on the Integra in the Part View settings menu under the KBD tab. Reference page 32 of the manual.

Even some of the SN stuff they do have on the Fantom is apparently hampered. For example, the acoustic and electric pianos seem to have almost all of their parameters and some of the "nuances" to the sounds removed as compared to implementations in other products.

Thank you, Lazerlike42.

I always thought something was missing.

Now I understand why they are so little configurable in Fantom, and that fact always pushes me to hardly use them but as first voices, as the adjustments available via zone offsets are most of the time not sufficient.

So SuperNatural is not a fixed wonder, it just depends on the hardware and the "SuperNatural type" they placed in it...how funny.
