Roland Fantom-S 61-Note Sampling Workstation
Roland's Fantom-S workstation keyboards are a complete solution for professional music production. The 61-note Fantom-S and 88-note Fantom-S88 both feature seamless integration of audio and MIDI - plus advanced sampling with realtime timestretch, sample chop and new "Skip Back Sampling." A Dynamic Pad Bank makes it easy to arrange and trigger audio, while all-new factory sounds, an onboard mastering processor and USB file exchange give the Fantom-S the power to take your music from idea to completion. Fantom-S 61-Note Sampling Workstation Features• :• Advanced music production studios with 61-note keyboard (Fantom-S) or 88-note Progressive Hammer-Action Keyboard (Fantom-S88) • Seamless integration of audio and MIDI using ROM waves and sampling with realtime timestretch capability • All-new Patches and Rhythm Sets built from new 64MB wave ROM • 32MB sample RAM (expandable up to 288MB) with .WAV/AIFF compatibility • 16MB flash RAM retains your favorite sounds; optional SmartMedia storage • New "Skip Back Sampling" for continuous sampling - never lose an idea again! • Dynamic Pad Bank with 16 velocity-sensitive pads for easy sample triggering • 3 MFX processors, plus dedicated reverb, chorus and new mastering processor • Expandable via four optional SRX-Series Wave Expansion Boards • USB port for .WAV/AIFF file exchange with a PC or Mac • 4 Line outputs (2 stereo or 4 mono), stereo Line input and 24-bit S/PDIF digital output • Bold New Sounds • Explore entirely new sonic landscapes with a brand-new 64MB-equivalent wave ROM created just for the Fantom-S/-S88. Painstakingly sampled in world-class studios around the world, these new stereo-sampled waves are the finest building blocks ever offered in a Roland keyboard. But don't worry; you can start making music right away. Roland has already created an entirely new set of inspiring Patches and Rhythm Sets sure to fit into the music styles of today and tomorrow. • An Audio and MIDI Powerhouse • The idea behind the original Fantom was to keep the music flowing. So for the Fantom-S/-S88, a strong emphasis was placed on the way audio and MIDI are integrated. The result is a fluid environment in which both worlds can come together as one. Audio can be sampled using the stereo analog inputs, or imported via USB, and then integrated directly as a waveform in the expressive stereo 4-Tone synth engine. Audio can also be sequenced alongside MIDI data. The Fantom-S/-S88 will even automatically stretch your samples in real time to match any tempo! • Beyond Sampling • Instead of just adding sampling, Roland carefully thought out ways to make it even more useful in production. To start, the Fantom-S/-S88 both come with 32MB of sampling memory, expandable to 288MB - more sampling memory than any other workstation and enough space to resample an entire song! The onboard USB port makes it easy to load .WAV/AIFF files, or export your finished song to a computer for CD burning or Internet distribution. • To make triggering samples easier, Roland added a Dynamic Pad Bank. Samples can be easily mapped to the touch-sensitive pads; the pads can even be used to play ROM sounds or RPS patterns. Another Roland innovation is Skip Back Sampling. This function continuously samples your performances so you'll never lose a great idea. It also makes for an easy way to resample any realtime knob and controller tweaks. • Streamlined Mixing • A new Mixer View screen gives the Fantom-S/-S88 the feel of digital mixer - with intuitive graphic editing of a multi-timbral Performance in one simple screen. Mix down your song using four knobs and the LCD to change track levels, panning and effects settings. Now audio and MIDI can be mixed together with the feel of a digital recording studio. Roland even makes it easy to set up your Performance using the new Layer View screen with quick graphic editing for layering and key zones.
