They just look cheap. I hope the price is too. Almost exactly the same marketing slogans as the Fantom X was sold with in 2003. And so far I wouldn't "upgrade" mine. The Jupiter would be a no-brainer after this. EDIT: If...

So how about that RD-300GX. At under 15Kg it sounds perfect carrywise as an 88-keyboard piano-action Roland keyboard to accompany my FX6. Yet the older RD-700 weighs another 10Kg more. So what's up with that? I hope it's...

He is right, though. Try connecting the Fantom with MIDI only and see if the same problem occurs. If it does not, then you clearly have a grounding problem in your studio. MIDI is ground-lifted (not sure if this is the c...

But then again you might get a Virus synth. Or maybe an Alesis Andromeda if you have the money. Really, 9/10 people can't hear the difference between a well made VA (Virus) and would confuse it easily with a modern day 1...
