Made for gigging songwriters, composers, and producers, who want the freedom to go where the inspiration takes them—the Roland Fantom-08 88-key music workstation combines the sonic power and fluid workflow inherited from the flagship Fantom Series into a streamlined instrument, with a lightweight and durable molded body designed for easy transport. Compose, perform, and produce with thousands of electronic and acoustic sounds powered by Roland’s advanced ZEN-Core and SuperNATURAL technologies, including SuperNATURAL pianos with authentic acoustic-grand sound and response, and Virtual ToneWheel organ sounds. The unit features a PHA-4 hammer-action weighted keybed with escapement and ebony/ivory feel.
With so much power under the hood, plenty of polyphony, and smooth sound transitions, the Fantom-08 lets you run up to 16 parts with all available DSP effects and patterns. It offers deep onboard sampling with 16 pads, 16-track clip-based MIDI sequencing with instant pattern recording and triggering, plus TR-REC sequencing inspired by classic Roland drum machines. Unleash your musical performance with a large color touchscreen, high-resolution knobs, sliders, RGB performance pads, pitch/mod lever, illuminated pitch and mod wheels, a dedicated synth control section, a mic input with onboard vocoder, instantly recallable setups, and deep computer integration with USB MIDI and audio interface. To get you started, the unit comes with 15 Wave Expansions and 10 Sound Packs, available for download from Roland Cloud.
