Let's say that I was going to hook up my fantom xa to the roland mv 8000(set as the master) and the fantom xa(set as the slave) !!! Will I still have the same problem with the effect's not being applied to the patches that I use !!!! I have a roland rs 70 and I can use all 16 midi track's and all have there effect's apply to them. In the roland fantom xa, it's seems like when I go into performance mode, the patches goes dry after I sequence the first midi track !!!!! There is something I'am doing wrong. There is no way that my Roland Rs-70 can out due my Roland Fantom Xa !!!!! Do you think that I should have gotten a Roland Fantom XR ?????
