Common Roland FANTOM 6 Questions
How do I connect the Fantom 6 to my computer for MIDI control and audio recording?
Connect the Fantom 6 to your computer via USB. You'll need to install the Roland USB driver for your operating system and then configure your DAW to recognize the Fantom as a MIDI device and audio interface in its settings.
Where are my saved sounds and patterns stored, and how do I back them up on the Fantom 6?
Your sounds and patterns are stored within the Fantom's internal memory and can be backed up using a USB drive. To back up, go to Menu > System > Utility > Data Backup and select 'All Data' to save everything to the drive.
How do I quickly switch between different sounds or Performances on the Fantom 6 while performing live?
Use the Category buttons on the left side of the panel to filter sounds, then use the Value knob or cursor buttons to select a Performance; assign your most used sounds to User Banks for instant recall.
My Fantom 6 screen is frozen or unresponsive, what should I do?
Try power cycling the Fantom 6 by turning it off and on again; if the problem persists, perform a factory reset via Menu > System > Factory Reset (note: this will erase all user data, so back up if possible).
How do I use the Fantom 6's ACB (Analog Circuit Behavior) technology to create custom synth sounds?
Access the ACB engine through the 'Model Expansion' section, allowing you to load and deeply edit recreations of classic Roland synthesizers such as the JUNO-106 or JUPITER-8, adjusting parameters like filter cutoff, resonance, and envelope settings to create unique patches.
