Fantom X6 "Giga klassen blandt synthesizere"

Fantom X6 er verdens første "Giga-Workstations" keyboard, som fuldt udbygget giver musikere næsten 1 GB samplede instrumenter i den indbyggede hukommelse og samtidig tilbyder fuld 128 toners polyfoni.Synthesizer sektionens nye samplinger indeholder bl.a. et fantastisk 88-keys split stereo-samplet piano, plus kortpladser til 4 SRX udvidelseskort. Sampler sektionen kan udbygges til i alt 544 MB RAM, hvilket giver så meget indspilnings tid, at sampleren også kan bruges som digital recorder. Med disse mange muligheder og sit flotte ydre vil Fantom X6 helt sikkert blive den foretrukne workstation blandt keyboardspillere.

Rolands innovative WX chip

Fantom X6 benytter Rolands nyudviklede WX Chip. Denne chip er den mest kraftfulde, som Roland endnu har fremstillet. Den gør det muligt at spille 4 tone patches med 128 toners polyfoni og muligt at udnytte Fantom X6 store hukommelse med op til 1 GB lyde og samplinger (fuldt udbygget). Det er langt mere hukommelse end noget andet musikinstrument på markedet. I øvrigt er den interne hukommelse blevet udvidet til det dobbelte med høj kvalitets lyde, som vil tilfredsstille enhver keyboard spiller.

Ekspressive nye lyde

Da Rolands teknikere udviklede Fantom X6, fokuserede de selvfølgelig på at udnytte den nye WX chip optimalt. Det er derfor, at Fantom X6 indeholder en helt ny samling lyde og samplinger i den indbyggede 128 MB hukommelse. Her er en helt ny meget autentisk string sektion, ekspressive og super dynamiske trommer, super vellydende akustiske nylon guitarer og et fantastisk 88-keys split stereo-samplet piano, som bruger individuelle stereo samplinger for hver enkelt tangent og hver enkelt anslags område. Alene denne piano lyd bruger over 700 samplinger. Mange af instrumenterne er optaget i første klasses studier ved brug af de bedste mikrofoner, og indspillet således, at de er lette at integrere i et musikalsk lydbillede. Teknikeren Dan Blessinger (Prince) har haft det store overblik til at skabe en samling lyde i super kvalitet og stor brugbarhed. Disse lyde kan udvides med SRX Serie ekspansion kort. I Fantom X6 kan der sidde op til 4 SRX kort med 384 MB kapacitet.

Sampler eller Digital Recorder?

Takket være den kraftfulde WX chip, får du begge muligheder med dette instrument. Fantom X6 er det første workstation keyboard, som er i stand til at håndtere audio på det samme niveau som en digital recorder. Det betyder, at man kan optage små korte samplinger til at spille på keyboardet, eller lange samplinger til at afvikle ligesom en digital recorder. Og med en hukommelses plads på op til 544 MB, er der masser af indspilnings tid. Samples kan låses til et tempo med realtime timestretching og editeres ved hjælp af værktøjer som ”Wave Edit” og ”Crop”. Samples i .Wav/Aiff format kan let importeres og samplinger i hukommelsen kan gemmes på PC kort med op til 1 GB kapacitet.

Den eneste Workstation med ”Skip Back sampling” og ”Dynamic Pad Bank”.

”Skip back Sampling” blev først introduceret med Fantom-S, og musikere med dette keyboard har nydt denne fantastiske mulighed. Med ”Skip Back Sampling” kan du genkalde det sidste, der er spillet på keyboardet og lave det om til en sampling. Med denne mulighed taber du aldrig dine improvisatoriske ideer på gulvet, fordi sampleren konstant sampler det, du spiller på keyboardet. Det gælder også, hvis du spiller på de 16 anslags følsomme pads, hvor du kan lægge tromme lyde, effekt lyde eller riffs. ”Dynamic Pad Bank” har fået dobbelt polyfoni og en ny overflade, som gør det lettere at indspille og programmere trommegrooves og lign.

Ægte Audio/Midi workstation

Når du sequencer midi tracks, trigger samples fra ”Dynamic Pad Bank” eller indspiller audio direkte ind i Ram, så bliver alt styret og integreret let og smertefrit af Fantom X6 brugerflade. Indspil f.eks et trommespor ved hjælp af de interne tromme lyde kombineret med et samplet loop, som automatisk passer i tempo ved hjælp af realtime timestretch. Eller indspil nogle keyboard spor som MIDI data og kombiner det ved at indspille f.eks en guitar eller en vokal som audio. Den indbyggede høj resolutions sequencer har op til 400.000 toners kapacitet og understøtter Standard Midi File (SMF) import og eksport, og alle disse muligheder gør Fantom X6 til det bedste workstation keyboard til dato.

Farve LCD display

Fantom X6 er det første Workstation keyboard med farve LCD display. Med det brugervenlige display, hvor alle menuer og undermenuer er farve kodede, er det let at navigerer rundt og hurtigt føle sig hjemme i de mange funktioner. Selv Bitmap billederne i sampling menuerne bliver mere realistiske. Desuden bliver Fantom X6 leveret med et Patch Editerings Software.

Komplet studio effekts sektion og Mastering Tools

De indbyggede effektenheder består af en separat rumklang og en separat chorus/delay plus 3 MFX multieffekt enheder med rige muligheder for at forme og dimensionere både de indbyggede lyde og samplingerne. Her er algoritmer som COSM guitar amp modelling, LO-FI processering, Tempo-sync Delay, Slicer, Isolator, Multi-effekts og meget mere. I Performance mode kan alle tre MFX effektenheder enten sættes op i en parallel eller seriel forbindelse eller i kombinationer af disse. Når du er klar til at lave et mix, så kan du bruge den dedikerede mastering processor med multi bånds compressor for at få et ”tight og punchy” mix.

Simpel at bruge på scenen og i studiet.

Den indbyggede USB port har 2 funktioner: Den kan bruges som et USB-MIDI interface, således at det ikke er nødvendigt at investere i et ekstern USB/MIDI interface. Desuden kan den bruges til at importere og eksportere samplinger i .Wav/Aiff format. Du kan således tage samplinger ind fra din computer og bruge dem i en sequence. Ligesom du kan mikse din sang, re-sample den i stereo, overføre den til computeren og brænde en CD.

V-LINK: Integrerede multimedie-funktioner

Til live-brug kan musikere ved hjælp af Rolands V-LINK teknologi trigge og manipulere videoklip med deres Fantom-X6, når den sluttes til en Edirol video-enhed som DV-7PR. Forestil dig at trigge videoklip med Fantom'ens indbyggede pads, eller lave overgange og effekter med pitch bend-hjulet eller diverse controllere. Det er en drøm for live-musikere!
