Product Description

The Roland Fantom-XR delivers the power of the new Fantom-X series keyboards in a convenient 1U rack. With room for over 1GB of sounds - 128MB internal wave ROM and room for six SRX expansions, this affordable module sets a new standard for expandability. Full-blown user sampling is also supported, along with .WAV/AIFF compatibility for loading samples via USB. The XR comes with 16MB memory expandable to 528MB with optional DIMMs.

The Roland Fantom-XR has 3 MFX processors (including modeling), plus separate reverb, chorus and mastering effects. Save all your work through USB or with up to 1 GB of PC card storage. The USB port functions as a MIDI interface. Just MIDI it up to your sequencer of choice, and let the Fantom-XR automatically sync up all your audio loops to tempo using a high-quality realtime time stretching algorithm. You can even record linear audio phrases and play them back from RAM like a digital recorder. With the bundled editing software (and the USB interface), you have everything you need to turn any computer into a full blown AUDIO/MIDI studio with just any old MIDI controller.

"Great versatile rack-synthesizer / sample player"
Sound: The sounds are just great. As can be expected from Roland, the piano's are fantastic and most sounds are crispy and clean. But the use of multi-effects also makes it possible to create "dirty" sounds, distorted guitars, freaky voices, noisy organs etc.. The moderate use of these effects removes the electronic, unrealistic sound found on some other (including Roland) synths. The internal patches are already cover a lot of sounds, if this is not enough, editing the preset patches will give a lot more possibilities. If this is still not enough you may want to add sounds via any of the 6 SRX expansion slots or download samples via USB. Feature: When using it, I keep on discovering new features. Just some things that were appealing to me: The editing capabilities are much wider then I experienced on older Roland synths. Especially the 78 types of effects of which 3 (besides chorus and reverb) can be used together in any configuration makes it much more flexible than what I was used to. The sample play functionality is very usefull and versatile. Just upload samples via USB, use the sample "as is" or edit it as you would do with any of the build in wave forms. For live performance, 64 "performances" can be prepared, which include the keyboard layout, effects, patches, midi setup etc.. An other nice feature is the Mix-In which makes it possible to mix any line or mic signal with the internal sounds. Very handy when e.g. playing along or to use as a mixer between this and another synthesizer. You can even add the multi-effects to this input and some special input effects like limiter, compressor or center-canceler. Quality: It looks very strong and sturdy. I have experienced a small problem: when quickly going through patches, sometimes a light crackle is heard it sounds like some digital noise in the effects. I will contact Roland about this. Value: At this moment for sure the most complete and best synthesizer on the market for my goals. Manufacturer Support: No experience yet. The Wow Factor: Great looks, small - easy to carry arround. Overall: The expandability and versatility makes it a product that I will be holding on to for many years to come. When lost or stolen I would certainly replace it.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. Roland Fantom-XR Customer Review
Sound: Sound quality is quite good. I would recommend that you use a good mixer and EQ to get the sound you want out of the fantom, and to also mess with the patches to get your desired sound. Feature: I own the Fantom XR, and for a rack unit there are tons of features. Ease of Use: This unit is not the easiest piece of hardware to handle, for sure. But if you are well versed in studio equipment and synthesizers then the learning curve will be much better for you. Quality: Excellent quality, I am impressed with roland in making a phenomenal piece of hardware. Value: The fantom isn't the cheapest, but its far from being a rip off. quality demands premium price Manufacturer Support: never used
