Bounding with exciting new features and workflow enhancements, the FANTOM EX Upgrade supercharges Roland’s premier synthesizer with even more creative firepower. The most significant update in FANTOM’s history expands and enriches the core platform with Roland’s finest analog modelling technology, two new grand pianos, plus JD-800 and n/zyme Model Expansions. New studio-grade reverb effects are also included, along with numerous tools for practice, stage, and studio. Available on Roland Cloud, this value-packed upgrade is a must-have for current and future FANTOM owners.

From its inception, FANTOM was designed as an evolving creative hub that continually grows through sound expansion, software integration, and user-requested features. The FANTOM EX Upgrade integrates a host of core sound engine and system enhancements, launching the FANTOM platform far beyond the impressive capabilities of previous versions. In development for many months, this important upgrade embodies Roland’s ongoing dedication to flagship synth and the worldwide FANTOM community.

Roland’s acclaimed Analog Circuit Behaviour (ACB) is the core technology behind AIRA products such as the TR-8S and SYSTEM-8, as well as the extensive Legendary series of software instruments on Roland Cloud. ACB brings an authentic analog sound experience to life in the digital realm, faithfully recreating analog circuitry and all their interactive behaviours at a deep component level.

Thanks to new engineering breakthroughs, the processor-intensive ACB architecture is now available to FANTOM owners with the JUPITER-8, SH-101, and JX-3P ACB Expansions in the FANTOM EX Upgrade. All the latest ACB advancements are integrated, including recently developed Circuit Mod and Condition functions for dialling in varying degrees of vintage character.

FANTOM employs the V-Piano and SuperNATURAL technologies for pianos that sound and feel like the real thing. With the FANTOM EX Upgrade, you get two deeply expressive grands primed to elevate your stage and studio endeavours with Roland’s renowned piano performance. Additionally, FANTOM’s V-Piano interface has been refreshed with an attractive new graphical design.

FANTOM’s DAW Control has been expanded with profiles for Steinberg Cubase and PreSonus Studio One. Additionally, the Master FX processor includes new ready-to-use preset templates for faster results and refreshed graphical interfaces for the Mastering Comp and Mastering EQ sections.
