Re: Boss FV-500L expression pedal does not work with Fantom in Fantom-G · 26 Oct 2008

I have not tried the FV-500L as an expression pedal, but prefer to use it as a stereo volume pedal with the audio in/out plugs. In a live situation, there is no question that you will be adjusting the volume in that mode...

Re: New Owner: G7 in Fantom-G · 26 Oct 2008

Thank you all for the kind welcome. I no longer have the other two boards... I sold the FX8 (begrudgingly) during a time of financial hardship, bought the G70 when things picked up because of its excellent live performan...

New Owner: G7 in Fantom-G · 25 Oct 2008

I just picked up my Fantom-G7 plus ARX-02 board and DP-10 pedal. I have owned a Fantom-X8 and G-70 arranger before, and am very excited about the G7. I am very curious why it has received such poor user reviews on harmon...

Re: What do you use your V-synth for? in V-Synth · 8 Nov 2004

I bought my V in order to complement my Fantom-X88. I was specifically interested in its extreme sound creation tools and real-time performance controls (time trip pad, dual d-beams, touch screen, knobs, sliders, etc...)...

Congratulations on the web site, Synthia! I have really enjoyed listening to all of your music -- it is definitely organic and beautiful. Richard

Re: So when and if do you think that a V-Synth 2 will come o in V-Synth · 3 Sep 2004

In many ways, synthesizers are more like computers than 'instruments': it is guaranteed that a better one is always in the process of coming out. Like purchasing a computer, I think that you need to weigh your need versu...

Re: So when and if do you think that a V-Synth 2 will come o in V-Synth · 30 Aug 2004

I think that trying to mold the V-Synth into a Fantom-like workstation with 88-keys and sequencing is not something that Roland is likely to do. For one, they already have the Fantom-X. I like my V because it ISN'T like...

Re: VC-1 card: first impressions in V-Synth · 30 Aug 2004

I was first impressed by the sound quality and the breadth of sounds (you get all the patches originally released for the D-50 -- including expansion cards). But I was blown away at how 'integrated' the card is with the...

Re: Soon: the V-Synth users community in Fantom-S and Fantom-X · 24 Aug 2004

I, too, anxiously await the arrival of your new V-Synth-centric site. An excellent choice. Richard -- "Be like the 22nd elephant with heated value in space. Bark!" - D. Adams

Re: RAM boost in Fantom-S and Fantom-X · 2 Jul 2004

rpieket- Thanks for the assist! I sold my S88 when the X8 was released. Currently I have only two physical synths: X8 and V-Synth, but have owned lots in the past. Richard -- "Be like the 22nd elephant with heated value...
