The Fantom's touch interface is far better at handling both zen-core and model expansions, and it now has a wavetable synth expansion. I think they need to commit to a zen-core focused synth, and maybe consider limited runs of their analog synths "remastered".

As someone who has also subscribed to Roland Cloud and has a Fantom 6 (Not the O which is not suitable for my personal requirements - No NZyme, AT, 2 BMC, No VP etc), this ticks a lot of boxes imo. This is a very focused instrument and the interface is superb and far more than a midi controller. Yes it's Zen core at it's base but with added functions, ACB would have been great but with more limited polyphony. Digital is not second best. It's different. An analogue Juno would probably cost 3k. So many options now, Waldorf Iridium, UDO Super 6. This imo is a contender and I would buy over the Jup X.

I was a keyboard tech for 37 years. The analog purists must have golden ears to be able to tell the difference between the original analog synths and the digital emulations in a mix with a pile of other instruments. Your non techie listener out on the world will not care where the sound comes from and would not be able to tell the difference. The analog instruments all require thousands of dollars buying external effects units to get them to sound good. I approach each individual instrument and look for its strengths and find a way to make it musical and useful. Most of the original Juno 106 units I worked on had the filter paks way out of calibration. They came in sounding awful! But their owners thought that sound was somehow better than a digital emulation. They require regular calibration to get them to sound their best. The digital versions do not have that oscillator and filter drift issue. Personally I find the weak part of the digital units are the shrill digital effect circuitry Roland puts into their instruments.

isn't the main point of the analog synths ease of use? They tend to be basic to program and sound great on whatever setting they are.

I just want one that sounds great and has a knob for every function.

But I agree about new Roland synths being overly complex and hard to find your way around. When a new Roland model came into my shop for warranty repair, I often had to call tech support just to get a quick explanation for how to confirm the customer's complaint was actually a problem and not just operational error. There are only two Roland synths that I found were logical to get around and access edit pages.

Having grown up in Tonawanda, NY where the original Moog factory was located and having owned many old analog synths, and have been a keyboardist all my life and synth tech for 37 years I can certainly tell the difference. But why assume a pure analog synth has a better sound than a digital hybrid or sample based synth? Analog synths are so unstable, you have to warm them up for a half an hour until the tuning settles in. I use Omnisphere now for all of my analog synth sounds. I challenge anyone to tell the difference in a recording layered with many tonal textures. There are good digital synths and bad ones, good analog synths and bad ones. I use whatever fits the music. It is like the ridiculous argument as to which sounds better: vinyl records, open reel tape, or digital. It is all a personal preference. By the way, the original Juno 106 oscillators are digitally controlled. It is the filter paks that drift and create the "analog" quality.

Just the price seems a bit too high, and I am sure it will go down to 1500 soon. (And the original is still the best, of course, soundwise).

In addition to that is the zen core enjoy that kinda future proofs the synth and gives you more options beyond just the modeled synth. There are a lot of smart gains with zen-core, that allow it to be priced reasonably, compared to other brands charging the same or more for a 6 voice poly synth, or 12 voice max.

Roland knows what we want and they're bending over backwards to not give it to us. It's like, instead of bringing our dead friend back to life (which they absolutely can do), they just troweled some Maybelline on his dead body, took a picture of him, and glued it to the face of a blowup doll and then blew it up with a rocket launcher, just like in "hard ticket to Hawaii". And I forgot where I was going with this, but c'mon Roland! You know what we want, just make an analog Juno already!

Why not just buy an old one?

@@wunderkyn mostly since the supply of vintage synths is fixed and dwindling, reliability is an issue and repairs aren’t terribly cheap, and modern connectivity would be nice. An analog synth with digital effects, or a hybrid design like the (underrated) JD-XA would be the ideal in a new Juno IMO. I have an old 106 and I love it. But my Point is, Roland is so stubborn on the analog/digital thing that they’re alienating a lot of their customers.

Andy is a super technical sounding musician and great demonstrator. Andertons Music is doing great job making valuable tutorials and reviews on keyboards. I have played on JupiterX it’s definitely a fantastic keyboard but somehow I like this one it sounds like very professional analog synth. I am looking to buy a workstation and confused between Yamaha Montage & Fantom8 but then I have spent so much time to see all the videos and specially Andy’s tutorials I decided to go with the Fantom8. I really don’t like the acoustic instruments voices of Fantom specially Brass/Wind & Guitars are very poor but then all the Synthesizer engines are better than a Montage8. Soon I will buy a Fantom8. I have a Roland RD2000 and. am very happy but I have to sell RD2000 as Fantom8 has all the things. Great work by masters. 🙌❤

Gotta hand it to Roland. They have, in recent years, made an artform out of never really nailing all aspects of a synth. These new ZenCore synths look great with their metal enclosures but sound pathetic next to the older, ugly, plastic but superior sounding System 8. The older ACM technology is far better than this zencore crap but for some reason Roland is hellbent on discontinuing all products with ACM. Please Roland, make a synth that looks like the Jupiter X but has the better sounding ACM modeling! How hard can it be? You literally have the parts for it already.
@martinjmusic
2 жыл бұрын
I think at this point it’s clear that Roland is all about the future. And ZenCore is maybe 90% true to the original, but takes it so much further. It’s not about 100% accuracy, but the possibilities and polyphony. ACB uses more processing power, meaning you would need more powerful, probably more chips. This is no option in these times. Also, had every synth 100% modeled its predecessor, there would’ve been no progress at all. It sounds great, and that’s what matters. The music will sound great, the world doesn’t care if it sounds 100% like the original, hell with all the processing and mastering you won’t notice a difference. Hoping it will be cheaper than the Jupiter-X - as it’s already lighter and smaller, if it’s cheaper too I’ll get one FOR SURE and have fun with the 90% accurate sounds!

Lol ok Roland, you got me! That’s a good one! But April fools was over three weeks ago… A 2000$ VST in a box? And I’d though that they were done cannibalizing the poor Junos heritage. They’ve reused the UI and added a few new features all while being based on the already badly viewed Zen-core tech, and they think they can command 2k? Seriously, in a world in which the Hydrasynth Deluxe and so many other synths, not to mention actual vintage synths can be had for that kind of money, I have to wonder what the hell are they thinking? Long gone the days of Roland actually making anything new. Who is this product really for when I can get a Rev2 for that kind of money? I can almost get an actual Juno for that lol. Is nostalgia really that expensive? Dayum tho Jack! Giving my dude Native Shade some props! Love your vids too, but I’m so disappointed in Roland lately, I just can’t stand it.

When they try in earnest it mostly fails, then only goes on to populate pawnshops for decades until people with actual stuff of merit to say go on to make timeless art with said failures. When the only other seeming options are to shoot for the moon (Jupiter series) or fail spectacularly (303, 606, 808, 909), then I’d hold on to nostalgia for all it’s worth too. Maybe this IS Roland failing, and I’m just too much of a neophyte to recognize it. What a time to be alive.

The core features are yours - they are offering that you can taken on a subscription service to gain access to more, BUT you need to prove every 30 days that you do still have the service. That’s just to prevent people taking the service, grabbing what they want and cancelling. Yes, subscription isn’t for everyone, and if you don’t like being able to expand it through a subscription you can pass on this.

Hi, if you are interested in true Roland Analog sounds and are blind, I would highly recommend you look into a JX-3P with the PG-200 controller, which is essentially knobs for the synthesizer parameters. In my opinion you would easily determine what each knob does to each sound and how to control it. Plus it is a very overlooked and less lauded after Roland Synth so can be bought at a reasonable price if you look, or even a steal.

A hardware instrument that has to connect to the internet every 30 days so it can phone home to the manufacturer to check if you're still allowed to play it??? And what happens in 8 years when Roland deems it no longer cost effective to keep maintaining the "legacy" authentication service this relies on? Your $2K instrument becomes a $2K paperweight? One of the main value propositions of hardware instruments is their longevity. A well maintained synth should still be perfectly playable 30+ years after it rolled off the production line. It requires significant ongoing effort and expense for a company to keep online services running for that long. And what if you have a gig at a venue without a decent internet connection / signal on stage?

Luckily, you don’t understand how it works, because what you described isn’t it. You only need to connect and reauthorize if you download sound packs AND didn’t pay for lifetime keys. If you’re a monthly subscriber to Roland cloud, that is the only time you need to connect to the cloud. You can always just buy the sounds you want and never worry about it. Or make your own patches. I mean you don’t expect Netflix to keep letting you watch movies without verification of your subscription right? So ya it’s pretty simple, don’t rent patches if you’re worried about this issue. Pay the .99 cents for the sound pack lifetime key’s you like and stop worrying about it.

Why just not make it analog or even hybrid? It's like Roland has a serious mental complex. Ironically at this point Roland is becoming dated by its stance of zero analog when in 2022 it's what is back in style. Digital recreations of analog have been done now for decades. It's nothing new or moving forward. They aren't inventing anything new but rather giving us cheap fake digital versions of things they've already done (Zencore and analog emulations in a shiny vintage looking box.) I think rather than the guise of saying it's about moving forward just be honest and say it's cheaper and easier to make and higher profits. Smh.
