Portable Digital Stage Piano, Organ, Synthesizer / HN271892
The Roland FANTOM EX is the ultimate professional instrument that represents the latest and most advanced technology in the world of synthesizers. The Fantom EX models provide an extraordinary combination of extensive sonic capabilities, advanced music production tools and outstanding playability, making them the ideal solution for professional musicians, composers and producers.

The perfect creative hub
FANTOM EX includes all the features of its acclaimed predecessor and much more. Equipped with the latest Roland technologies, this robust platform brings you a complete creative ecosystem for professional sound design, sequencing and performance through the widest collection of premium sound engines available in a hardware instrument. Proven sounds consisting of ACB, ZEN-Core, V-Piano, SuperNATURAL or the new n/zyme engine provide an inspiring palette for every musical style.

Creating without limits
FANTOM EX is designed for professional creation with a highly flexible architecture that lets you bring musical ideas to life in seconds. Explore fluid composition tools and creative environments with one touch. Expand your possibilities with integrated control modes for leading production DAW software and take advantage of the rich selection of premium audio content on Roland Cloud.

Sound options
FANTOM EX offers an extensive library of Roland sounds that cover an exceptionally wide range of genres. You can create, compose and perform with over 7,000 pre-installed presets and an unprecedented array of powerful synthesis tools. Roland's Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology delivers an authentic analog experience that faithfully replicates analog circuits. Synthesizer expansions such as the JUPITER-8 ACB, SH-101 ACB, and other classic models such as the JX-3P ACB are available for download. The flexible and expandable synthesizer system ZEN-Core uses provides a diverse range of electronic, acoustic and hybrid sounds. Develop refined and expressive tones with up to four layers, each with an independent oscillator, filter, amplifier, dual LFOs and effects. Create complex splits, layers and sequenced parts using up to 16 tones in a single scene. n/zyme is a modern instrument with an all-new synth engine developed for the FANTOM environment. It combines oscillator layers with wave frequency, phase and shape modulation, resonant filters and two extra powerful Step LFOs. An instrument like the Fantom EX certainly can't do without extensions of other classic vintage models like the JD-800, JUNO-106 or the history-inspired JX-8P, capturing the essence of Roland's legendary instruments enhanced with more polyphony and other modern features needed by today's makers. The acoustic piano is an essential instrument for many players and producers. The V-Piano and SuperNATURAL technologies in FANTOM EX bring you deeply expressive pianos that sound and feel like the real thing. Also included are the SuperNATURAL basic acoustic and electric pianos and the newly developed SuperNATURAL Acoustic Piano 3 Expansion and German Concert V-Piano. The Roland Virtual ToneWheel faithfully replicates the sound generation process of historic organs, including all of the characteristic acoustic sounds that come with these types of instruments. A rotary effect with variable speed, brake control and tube distortion characteristics is also available. The touchscreen, sliders, knobs and keyboard are automatically configured to complete the authentic organ experience, providing practical control and classic fast playability. Should you perhaps still be looking for further inspiration, there's an ever-expanding range of ZEN-Core Sound Packs and Wave Expansions to explore on Roland Cloud. Diverse styles and new titles are added every month. FANTOM EX features effects from Roland's extensive library, ready to add colour, space and depth to your parts. Newly developed Shimmer Reverb and Modulation Reverb algorithms offer sonic quality that rivals the best standalone processors. There's also a dedicated Master FX processor with preset templates for fast results, and upgraded graphical interfaces for the Mastering Comp and Mastering EQ sections.
