The Roland Fantom G7 workstation offers everything all in one place, live control for gigging, editing systems for creative people or studio control for the professional composer. Getting everything in one package is now a possibility.
The G7 offers a huge 128 track sequencer, over 1500 sounds and an easy on the eye wide screen LCD display. The sequencer in this mighty workstation is capable of recording upto 24 tracks of audio and 128 tracks of MIDI data. This is easily acheived and editied on the large 8.5 wide LCD screen. Samples can be imported at the click of a button and automatically time stretched when you change tempo so you have no messing about to do!! The Fantom G7's sequencer is quite possibly one of the most powerful sequencers in a workstation ever!
The internal sounds in the Fantom G7 are stunning but the ARX expansion technology offers us a quality and control we have never had before. The ARX01 Drums board has a 3D control system. Want to change a shell depth or mic position? See it virtually on the screen in 3D! Every control you could ever need and the sound is stunning. The ARX02 offers the same quality in the electric pianos department. The ARX Cards are highly recommended as an add-on.
Many Roland Fantom X owners may think this is only a small change from the their current product whilst other poduct owners will find it simply amazing. The Fantom X users however will find that spending half hour with it or with a good demo will see how much better the Fantom G7 is than the X series. This really is a top notch all in one workstation.
