Unable to Connect Fantom Xa for Fantom X library to my compu

Hello and welcome to the Roland Clan, kondamudims.

A couple of details. . . .

What is you OS?
PC or Mac?

What version of the Editor are you using?

Let us know. . . . .

i'm having this same porblem as we speak, only i have the x6.

i'm running a mac/osx

i'm using the original editor that came with the board

This has happened to me on every PC I've owned. This problem occurs if you have already used the Fantom as a USB storage device during that reboot session. If you reboot and use the Fantom from the start as a MIDI device, you will not have this problem. Once you use it as a storage device, you need to reboot to allow it to work as a MIDI device again.

I have no idea why it does this, but it has done it on every PC configuration I've used it on. Can't speak for MAC just yet...

P.S. This is assuming you have installed the USB MIDI drivers for the Fantom. The Fantom does not need drivers to be a USB storage drive.

Never happened to me on Mac OS 10.4.8 - during one session, I can swap between USB MIDI and storage as many times as I want.

Sounds like I need to get my Mac sooner rather than later.

Not to mention I get 11 ms latency with a built-in sound card with zero set up

*groan*

Grrrrr, I have serious GAS for a MAC laptop...

Thanks Artemio =D

When you say reboot do you mean a system reset on the fantom x?
