It really depends on what style of music I'm writing.

ultimate piano
searing cosm guitar

***and a lot of the xv patches (pads, strings, voxs, ethnic etc...)

***These sounds are like gold to me.


I can't believe how easy it is to Patch edit the sounds and just change/cancel the original waves and adjust volumes to get some unreal lush warm pad sounds.

I'm either in piano mode or screwing around and I usually end up in section 3 of my favourites:

H95 Jupiter-X
H101 JP-8 Phase
X-B408 Old,Warm OBX
X-B272 JP+OB StrSRX
X-B421 OBSftPad SRX
X-B433 Classic OB
X-B420 OBThickPdSRX
X-B424 PG Phaser

X-B is the Ultimate Keys SRX-07 board.

Damn Mace, I would think you worked for Yamaha or something coming in on the fantomized forum and saying that

Sorry ... this is an SRX sound ... but I Looooove "Pathetique" strings, an orchestral patch with just the right blend of great sonics with feeling ... I really have to restrain myself from using it every time I head from stringlandia ....


"Spdr Sideband" is also a good for adding a nice synth texture to an ensemble.

But rarely do I ever use just one patch with the Fantom ... at minimum I pan two similar but different patches panned slightly or very much apart with sometimes another dead center. Usually one is tuned up or down an octave.

Although i let my ears be the judge mostly, you do need to be mindful as to not let competing frequencies pile up and muddy everything up.

(The Fantom's warm enough as it is!)

Sorry youngjboy but I tell the truth and I don't ring everyone's bells just to "fit in." I do like my Fantom X for certain things like piano feel, etc. Here we are talking sounds - basically my faves do not emanate from the Fantom X.

Artemio says init patch and that speaks volumes.

think thread theme is fav patches. that'll mean from ***fantom machines*** in this fantom forum. nice motif, but its another forum. what, if anyone attests sounds from xy boards in this thread (ie of my waldorf, moog ...).

Try INIT PATCH and then create your own orchestral sample.

Some people would rather make music than re-invent the wheel everytime they sit in front of their keys/synths.

I'm glad you like your Motif. Lots of people do.

Mace, i wasnt saying that you had to kiss butt to fit in or whatever, but to say that any Motif ES patch is your favorite is unreasonable, not to mention that we are on the fantomized forum talking about fantom patchees. I am in no way being a yamaha hater because i play yamaha drums and use a Yamaha PSR-550 as a controller for my Fantom XR over my Korg Karma. I plan on probably getting a motif es rack or ES6 but let's keep it real.

Why have a Fantom if your just going to make negative comments about it in every thread you post in

Youngjboy,

Seriously, I like User 157 Amp EP because you have instant FX, Phaser, Speaker Sim all right on the screen.

User 201 Flugel Horn - Best I ever heard. Must be a good sampler or something.

User 027!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nu R&B Saw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best sound in the entire Fantom X. (Used in the song by Cassie - Me & You?)
