Hi guys, I've had my Fantom-X8 for a few years now and it has sat in its place in the studio and never been moved. Today I noticed that keys C#2 - G#2 always play at 100% velocity (hardest) no matter how lightly I touch...

Wow that's awesome, thanks for that =) ~ Roland Fantom X8 w/ Audio Track Expansion 2.02 DP-8, EV-5, 128MB PC-150, SRX-05 (Supreme Dance), SRX-10 (Big Brass Ensemble) replacing my Casio CTK-601

Thanks for your reply Jost. I was also unimpressed by the stock drums on the Fantom. I know that some kits can sound okay with the right compression tweaking but I also think the Fantom lacks decent rhythmic patterns. Ho...

G'day, I've been checking out the SRX Expansion Board Demo and am interested in getting my hands on SRX-05 Supreme Dance. Once question though, are the patches just loops and phrases or are they proper one-note patches t...
