Roland Fantom-07

Ideal keyboard for me playing covers/tributes from various different genres.

Regardless of whatever sound you're looking for, you'll find an exact copy or close (with a bit of tinkering).
If you're looking for new cutting edge sounds, the Fantom 0 series is not for you - if you play live, it's ideal (for me as a second 'up-top' keyboard with weighted keys below.)

Very light to transport , keybed is OK but not great. Main sound complaint from most people is pianos - to be honest, if you use a bit of common sense and EQ, they're fine.
I had a Nord Stage 3 compact which had wonderful pianos (with headphones on) but by the time they're put through my Yamaha mixer the into the main desk and out through a Mackie PA they just sound like pianos.
For the difference in price is was a no- Braintree to sell the NS3 and get this plus another keyboard.
Anyway, a great workhorse for live playing. The multi options to split and layer are fantastic and some of the pad functions ive found really useful.

I don't use the sequencer so can't really comment. I've started using the sampler (as an oldie , I've never used one before) but it's going to be really useful

This is a great lightweight keyboard that comes with tons of tones, a few sample pads, and styles. Roland uses a concept called SCENE, and in the Zone Editor, you can combine up to 16 tones, layering them together and assigning them to different key sections based on your needs. The sound is truly amazing!

I also want to highlight Thomann’s excellent support. I contacted their support team via chat before purchasing, and I received answers from different departments within the same conversation. I specifically chose Thomann because of their outstanding customer service and their extended support even after the 3 year warranty period they continue to cover manufacturing defects.

Shipping to Ireland was very fast, taking only 5-6 days. The keyboard arrived in its original, highly durable packaging, ensuring no damage during transit.

This is a fantastic Japanese product, and I highly recommend it!
