jessej: I bet they can. They seem that they just don't want to. Not sure why, though.
No matter what the reason may be, this is frustrating, period.

I can't understand it either. One would think that making an awesome product would sell more units and make more profits.

Instead we now how multi-sampling capabilities featuring less functionality than 11 years ago and sequencer features that is more or less in par with Atari ST Pro 24 or from 1988*, that is 21 years ago.

And talking about the issue is whining, I forgot.

I can find no reason at all why this is happening.
I can bet that the majority of demanding FG users here are thinking the same way.

well.. you know... this is something that creates market for products like yase and resampler.....

I still think Dan did the same step twice in that video (assigning the samples to keys and again to the range).... I will double check it tonight....

You know, not every Fantom-G user is willing to buy Yase. If this one has been done on purpose, it can only scare potential customers away. This economic crisis is a very difficult situation, and customers want more features for less money. So, a hell of a lot more have to be done by the manufacturers to convince customers buy their products. I can see there is a collaboration between the Clan and Nexoe. I really HOPE that these sampling conveniences we're talking about weren't omitted on purpose so that Yase would be entirely essential. I really don't want to believe something like this, but if this is really the case, it's a very cunning thing to do. And I'm sure that many frustrated users would find other ways and workarounds to make things work, instead of paying for functionality that should have been integrated for free in the Fantom-G's factory package.

I don't think if there is any partnership between Yase and Roland...

I don't have Yase or Resampler.... So, I am with you on this... that the resampling process doesn't have to be this boring and difficult... the robotic steps could be made automated with a little more programming to make the process creative...

The other day I tried to resample an internal sound from live set... what a headache... I just gave up at 4 samples...

The argument I have heard mostly is that, well you can do that on the computer... The most important are the sounds, and how audio quality is the top most priority... etc. So, resampling shortcuts aren't gonna happen overnight in Fantom-G....

Hi @Roland Clan

First I like to introduce myself to you: I'm Michael from NEXOE.

@shakil & cyclops: You are right, we have no common agreement with ROLAND.
Some of Roland distributors support us(and our ideas), which we really appreciate.

I have added a short video clip, hopefully it will give you some basic information about workflow of RESAMPLER.

Greetings
Michael Menze

Thanks for the video Michael. Roland should hire guys like you to do their Fantom G OS.

I featured this video in the Facebook Fantom G user group also..

I noticed the RESAMPLER™ + Fantom YASE™ (Bundle) is now 225€ , so you all know..

This is very cool Resampler stuff. I think that it's a must buy app. Great work.

Hi jessej

Thank you very much for your effort. :-)

I've you like my bad spoken English, some clips will follow within the next days...

Best,
Michael

Michael, great work man. This is wonderful stuff you're doing there at Nexoe.

But Yase/Resampler aside, I'm dying to now what stand do you use for your laptop. Is this the Roland SS-PC1??? Seriously, I really want one. :-)

Re: Multisampling

@cyclops: Thank you! :-)

Yes, this is a SS-PC1. It's very stable in my eyes and with the clamps your notebook is also fixed.

Best,
Michael

Michael, thanks for the reply. I just contacted my Roland distributor. It costs 90€ and I'll definately buy it. It is the prefect solution I was looking for. Thanks again. :-D

Michael.... that's excellent demo.... there are somethings that could be made automated further.... for example, after the resampling is done, the 'resampler' could call up Yase automatically and create a patch based on the template.

I really like the wizard that comes up, when you import the file to yase, you can define where the multisample will sit, and where the samples will sit... very smart.. unlike some other programs i have seen that blindly put the samples over occupied sample slots...
