So impressed the Guy on left speaks out right speaker, guy on right side speaks out the left speaker. This is so Pro. It makes me want one so bad, NOT.
hey, i'm looking to make my own home studio. could someone please take their time out to tell me what exactly i need to build one. anyone with experience. please drop an inbox, i will be forever grateful.
My guitar cord will not pull out of the back of the Fantom G. A lot of people on the internet are complaining about this. The jack just gets stuck back there on the Fantom G's. Do a keyword search to prove this.
...and as a conclusion the Motif sounds NICE but doesnt look NICE (so what huh??)...as for the M3 for me is the best of all 3...it has GREAT leads and pads...Great organs with a bunch of settings to manipulate the sound to ur liking..very good pianos and great bright piano..good strings and the MAGNIFICENT orechestral strings with the layered sounds which sound just amazing...non to mention the touch screen (oh yeah) with the X-Y mode and the 360 degrees joystick (favorite) and 1 last word KARMA
Well im about to buy a keyboard and i was between Korg M3 Yamaha Motif and Roland Fantom...and my conclusion is...Fantom looks GREAT but sounds really crappy (wtf yeah u have an 8.5 inch screen with great quality but u dont have the most important....good sounds)...as for the Motif well it has the best pianos (Yamaha's specialty) and really really GOOD organs and strings, but it lacks on lead and pads which are very important to play some leads and to add expression on the song u play or create.
@Diablos199 Sounds alot like some pathetic hating going on...lol Fanboys or something. I've been playing over 30 years & I've had all the systems you can think of...from the classic Yamaha DX7, Korg Poly 800, Casio CZ, yadda, yadda...as of late, I had a Korg Triton X which I loved the board itself, the key action, the touch screen was nice but the menu interface made it cumbersome & the sounds seemed dull & lifeless, I now have the Fantom G8. By far, the best action & sound/features EVER!
@RedskinsGM2B well i am 17yrs old and im a piano player for 10yrs...i spent hours of searching for a nice keyboard and Fantom just dont fits on me...yeah u can say that i am a korg lover but i didnt say that Fantom is a bad keyboard...its great but not as good as the motif and the m3. Well the only good sounds on it are the lead guitar sound (indeed AMAZING) and a synth lead sound that i cant remember the name (for me i chose the m3 because it has a lot potentials...x-y mode 360 joystick karma)
Agreed. I too, miss the 360 action of my Triton & I've always had a soft spot for Korg. If they ever make another serious standard breaking workstation, I'll definitely buy one again. Heck, I'd buy the TRITON again if one came across my path. The new M series just felt too light & delicate for my taste. Felt like it might break if I started pounding during a rock rampage. lol Yamaha, I like them as a company but, lately they've seemed to stock the sounds for Hip-Hop.. Fail.
It looks like this is made for the new first class synthsizer's crowd, the gay DJ's who play a song by entering a beat and playing the chord roots and those toys aren't made mainly for experienced keyboard players.
How long are people using this complicated tool ? two weeks (the time to discover everything and to get sick) or two years because it's so much fun and pleasure...?
When I want to buy an instrument I want to hear the instrument. Strange for you maybe. Have fun with listening to the big boy in stead of listening to performance of an instrument. Pathetic creature !
Appearently you visitted same youtube page as I did. So appearently your comment is very applicable on yourself. Advise; think first before posting something which makes you look like an idiot.
i've thinking about getting a g6. But I'm looking for a keyboard/synthesizer that I can use to make as many sounds and effects as possible. Is this the best keyboard to use if I want to have it as a basis for making electro and happy hardcore music?
No. While sample-playback 'boards are versatile instruments able to do a range of musical styles (including hardcore), I'd recommend more of a strict synth.. like a microKORG or Alesis Micron, or the new Akai Miniak, which is an Alesis Micron with some Akai goodies tacked on. The microKORG XL is also good, as is the Roland SH-201. I love my MK though because I can use batteries and the editor is great.
Note, though: No one listens to hardcore anymore. Hullabaloo, dude..
thanks man, I took a look at your suggestions and the microKORG XL looked the best out of those to me. two questions about that because I couldn't tell for sure. Does it have good drum sound and options?, and I saw it has a USB port, but can you play sound formats (wav, mp3, etc) off a flashdrive onto the synth and live edit it (like you can do with the roland G6)?
Even though I'm not looking to purchase the keyboard, the sales guy has managed to sell it to me. Just wish Roland would go back and recreate a real analogue synth that can emulate all of their classics like the Jupiters and Juno's and JX range. I haven't bought hardware synths for yrs but that would make me purchase.
roland makes bells and whistles.. they dont make new innovative sounds. maybe except for V-synth.... and Eddie......im a big guy too but you can try a bit harder....
it depends on what kinda music do you like more, i don't think so but i have to say.. you're right.. because the creativity tens to decrease with that "tons" of tools to make music
@THEDEFOCATOR That's because people don't need to work for it anymore....it's gotten to a situation where literally ANYONE can make something...even if they shouldn't!
@THEDEFOCATOR what happens is that if there is no creativity technology can not work miracles ...yes you are right today's music sucks with or whitout technology
@MRTKOO Now people get lazy and think that all they need is great technology. Before, you had to work hard to get great music with the things they had. With new technology, crappy artists can become famous too.
cannot load roland or any format multisamples. Only one shot samples. TOTALLY LAME. Real sampled unstruments are still better and more realistic, why dont they add that feature. Why not add a VST player and put Receptor outta business
too much focused on making songs. i want roland to make a super synth and not a damn workstation i want to see what the technology today can create with state of the art sound modulation!
@johnnyostrawb33ry Interesting you should say that. If I was interested in top-quality sounds only (without workstation capability) what synth would I have to look for?
@InnerflamesUnLtd honestly the only two things i can suggest for awesome sound these days are The korg oaysis and a hammond organ. unfortunately both extremely expensive. oaysis = 8k and hammond organ = 25k the oaysis focuses with max 8 diff ocilators and wavelenghts amazing....
@jimzer well roland needs to come out with a keyboard that actually makes sounds like the korg oaysis. roland was known for creating syntheziers that specialise in creating sounds not songs. get me?
the whole concept of a workstation is totally outdatet in times of computers.
the keyboard industry seems to be in deep sleep, exactly as the music industry was as the internet came up with napster and so on. now their income has decreased by 90% because they didn't wake up early enough.
@johnnyostrawb33ry dude its totatly worth it!!! if you seek super synths its fucking awesome!!! still, it have waaaay to much stuff, thats the thing that i dont like, roland made it with all those features because they want you to buy it, the more things that thing have, the more you have to buy it, cause its the only thing that have what it have, if you understand, so, buy it if it is worth it to you, for me it is
@johnnyostrawb33ry well they have many categories of keyboards, this may not be the type of keyboard that you are after but they probably make something more like what you want
Thank God this kind of stuff wasn't around in the Beatles time. They would have been too busy trying messing around with the buttons to actually write any music. I've got a Roland synth module and OK in a way this technology is great but I can't help thinking that in the final analysis they somehow take away the real joy of making music and instead mess your head up with concepts of digital processing.
very nice but can you guys put the same piano & rhodes sound as in the roland rd1000s or roland mks-20 in these nowadays keyboards or in an expandsion board
True, but thats about it. PC3x has an unlimited amount of tracks instead of your typical 16. Besides, it's acoustic sounds are faaaar realistic and nicer than the fantom.
well... just bought kurzweil PC3x and got rid of my old roland xp-10. I don't know why roland always wanna put some fancy GUI (look at 0:33) on their boards instead of just good sound?
I have a Fantom X6 and it has awesome drum kits. But this here will probably blow away the X6. This one, you can incorporate your own music from a guitar into it.
I have a Fantom X8...I love it...but if I need new sounds I can always add the xpansion cards to X8...and get the same sounds in the G...but more importantly....I would rather use my X8 as a controller and use all of the soft instruments that i have on my Mac and PC...it's a smarter and more economical way to go versus buying a new Fantom.
MiKo/NeKo are not computers that just happen to run production software. If you look at their site, they describe it as a studio computer mixed with a synthesizer/midi controller. They keyboard itself is basically a MIDI controller that uses the onboard computer to use VSTI's to control the sound the keys make. The onboard audio recorder removes the necessity to use two completly seperate objects...
this was annoying to listen to because the spokesperson for Roland is panned hard right and the interviewer is in the left.... why not just record the entire vid in STEREO???!
Sound on sound magazine is fantastic, although you would think the dick head with the mic would point it at the guy speaking!!

@johnnyostrawb33ry well they have many categories of keyboards, this may not be the type of keyboard that you are after but they probably make something more like what you want

Thank God this kind of stuff wasn't around in the Beatles time. They would have been too busy trying messing around with the buttons to actually write any music. I've got a Roland synth module and OK in a way this technology is great but I can't help thinking that in the final analysis they somehow take away the real joy of making music and instead mess your head up with concepts of digital processing.

And of course it washes your underpants and makes the tea at the same time in a highly intuitive and graphical 3D way.

This is pretty worthless - who wants to hear about how "graphical" a keyboard is?
It's like saying our flutes are 80% more shiny.
Just play the thing so we can *hear* it...

woulda been better if it had touchscreen instead of a mouse

Unless your fingers are as thin as a stylus, for most functions touch screen would have been useless. Plus, it makes the screen dirty.

You can´t import sampled data into PC3x
cassandragroove 2 years ago
True, but thats about it. PC3x has an unlimited amount of tracks instead of your typical 16. Besides, it's acoustic sounds are faaaar realistic and nicer than the fantom.
Dadee3 2 years ago
I´m interested on how the PC3x´s
keybed action feels, can you tell us please? Fantom G8has the same as RD 700GX, and is pretty good.
cassandragroove 2 years ago
Feels a bit "rubberish", but the sounds are terrific.
Dadee3 2 years ago
well... just bought kurzweil PC3x and got rid of my old roland xp-10. I don't know why roland always wanna put some fancy GUI (look at 0:33) on their boards instead of just good sound?

I have a Fantom X6 and it has awesome drum kits. But this here will probably blow away the X6. This one, you can incorporate your own music from a guitar into it.
Grapes428 2 years ago
I have a Fantom X8...I love it...but if I need new sounds I can always add the xpansion cards to X8...and get the same sounds in the G...but more importantly....I would rather use my X8 as a controller and use all of the soft instruments that i have on my Mac and PC...it's a smarter and more economical way to go versus buying a new Fantom.

Response @ BAMNtelevision:
MiKo/NeKo are not computers that just happen to run production software. If you look at their site, they describe it as a studio computer mixed with a synthesizer/midi controller. They keyboard itself is basically a MIDI controller that uses the onboard computer to use VSTI's to control the sound the keys make. The onboard audio recorder removes the necessity to use two completly seperate objects...
