Roland FANTOM versión 2.0

Roland FANTOM, new version 2.0.

All the information about this new update for Roland's powerful Workstations.

New main features:

Roland has announced the availability of a new free version 2.0 update for owners of FANTOM 6, FANTOM 7 and FANTOM 8 synthesizers. This new version makes the most of the greatly expanded power of the built-in ZEN-Core synthesis system and provides major improvements in sampling, sequencing, effects and routing, in addition to offering new customization options for live performances and studio music production.

Multisampling

The FANTOM sampling engine has undergone a major redesign and now users can sample directly from the keyboard or create detailed multisamples, which can be edited on the device and used as the basis for any oscillator/partial of a ZEN-Core sound. With up to 352 samples per sound and 16 sounds per scene, as can be seen, the design potential in this new update is enormous.

TFX Effects Processor

Another new feature is a TFX (total effects) processor for the FANTOM master section, which complements the master compressor and equalizer. The TFX processor introduces advanced sound modeling with 90 different effects that can be applied to the master output. Different audio routing features have also been added, with the ability to apply effects to audio input sources and sample the results.

Piano Roll

The FANTOM series includes a color touchscreen interface and now, with the version 2.0 sequencing improvements, this powerful tool can be squeezed for much more. Automation can now be drawn and edited with various gestures, while the new microscopic mode allows each note to be adjusted precisely and flawlessly.

On the FANTOM, each of the 16 zones can be assigned to an internal sound or an external input, such as a software synthesizer, and now, with version 2.0, internal and external sources can be layered or split within a zone, to create huge sounds and complex live setups. Each zone can also be transported independently and adjustments can be saved in Scenes to activate them instantly. The Scene Chain function has also been improved with a list view, where users can easily swap positions and use markers to jump to other sections.

In addition, if you want to customize your FANTOM, version 2.0 offers new ways that include changing the touchscreen background to match your creative environment.

Finally, for those who are not familiar with these Roland flagship products, we leave you with some brief information about the 3 models in the series as well as some videos where you can see the new features of this new version.
