I keep a backup of the SD card on an external hard drive and my PC. I've upgraded to a 32 gig in the FA and will back it up after I change things or add more sequences, waves, etc. I also keep a duplicate 32 gig in my laptop bag just in case the one I'm using should fail. It's probably overkill but I don't want to chance a failure when gigging. Extra SD cards are cheap insurance for your files. Glad it worked out for you.

dirwin did you have a fantom x before the fa and if so did you like the sounds better thanks

I still have a Fantom S. I like the keybed better than the FA06 but prefer the sounds of the FA. The 07 was not available when I bought the 06. I may upgrade at some point but still prefer the Fantom for gigs where I use sequenced tracks for the quick play option. I midi to the FA06 for the sounds. I just use the Fantom as the controller. I don't like having to load each song before playing in the FA. I do use the FA alone with a full band sometimes but I don't use the sequencer so not worrying about finding and loading midi files. I understand there has to be some limitations for a keyboard at this price. Mine was $400. cheaper than the Fantom was when I bought it new about 14 years ago.
