It's easy to forget about the keyboard and get caught up in the beauty of his skillfulness. He should have a channel for strictly playing. Phenomenal!!!

The board is great and all but Man your touch is undisputedly AMAZING!!! Oh and thank you for the camera angle as well. I've learnt a whole LOT to cover me 2023 through to 24.

Came for the review, stayed for the player 👏 👏 👏 👏

You're an absolutely fabulous player! I could listen to you play all day! Keep up the great work buddy.

Andrew Mckain hi I used to always think about Yamaha too. But now I have Roland Fantom 8 . Today it is the most versatile workstation.

Nice playing brother I have the fantom 8 its an amazing key board if only I could play like you 😁🤛

This is just excellent, man. Clearly a pro's point of view, thanks for the insight!

Bruh!!! This is the most well played a Fantom I watched since they dropped this board to the public!!!! I’m new to your channel and I’m a fan!!! But I just sold my G6 so when I upgrad to the new flagship version!!! At one point I won’t 3 Fantom families!!! G6 FA & Juno Di along with MO and MODX!!! Want 3 of these!!! 8 for home studio and 2 for stage!!!!

First of all, let me say, this was one of the best demonstrations videos I ever seen concerning the phantom OC, with keyboard wells, thoroughly explained to say the least. I am now your new subscriber.😅

Nice vid thanks. It's nice to see you play and how you change playing style depending on what the sound is , sweet.

Very nice playing. Would love to hear the entire band playing with you.

I’m looking for a keyboard 🎹 for our ministry and this video truly helped me. Thank you so much! Blessings 🙏🏽

Good job bro, thanks. I have one and i agree it’s a Great board, can customize your own patches, thanks for that layer. It wicked

Great as always!

Great review Bro always delivering top notch videos! This is why I love the Fantasy plug by Junior P. The sounds are identical in my opinion. Even tho all the sounds are not on the plug, but there are enough play with lol. Great work Andrew!

Great Job my friend I have Roland 0/Yamaha modx8 RD2000 Kong krome ex88/FP e50 I like Roland over Nord and Yamaha

Lovely playing, I forgot about the synth!

Amazing playing!!!❤❤❤❤❤

Dope video bro!!!

Man I pause the video and start learning your chords bro lols

Amazing playing man. 🙌❤ As you said action on this is good but very authentic like acoustic grand but still action feels great and very responsive. Only thing is this doesn’t have impressive combinations sounds like a Kronos & Montage. But piano and synth sounds are definitely impressive. As a pianist I like the action of Kawai MP11se. Piano sounds on Kawai MP11se at-par. Thanks! ❤

Thank you !! obviously a very accomplished player so I can truly respect your opinion...the "feel" is what worries me..There must be velocity settings to adjust the key touch, no? I wonder how the yamaha YC or PC feel in comparison.. Obviously they are not workstations, but more important to me is it should feel like heaven when playing piano!!!

I think i'm listening "James Moss - We must praise" from the Chorus EP2 😄

Has anyone played the fantom using a high quality headphone like the V-Moda 200 or other from Sennheiser? Does it really make a difference playing it with a HighRes headphone? (I mean plug the headphone directly into the fantom and not using other equipment)

Thanks. But you should also tell how did you find the sounds here compared to the Yamahas (which model ?) that you said you play. That way it'll be a useful understanding for us otherwise we are just hearing you play 08 sounds through KZfaq that compresses sound files.

Love your playing. You should record a solo acoustic piano album. I'd buy it.

Great playing. And relevant according to church musicians. I’ve heard somewhere that you will run into issues with polyphony more easy than on montage/modx. Did you encounter issues when layering piano, ep, pad and string on the fantom? On the montage?

Nice video brother I love roland, I know you are a yamaha guy so am asking you this , the motif es or xs can the octave shift up or down in split mode/performance

May I ask, how do you just "play around" on the piano like that? Are you just playing chord progressions and such? Is it bit of songs you know? Awesome playing!

It has the tone wheel organ that sounds pretty good ,it's not in the regular organ section though

Does the MODX have the MK-80 patch or something similar?

Bro I love your playing , it's still something about these pianos compared to Nord and Yamaha ,don't sound as good imo, what u think ?

Fantom 7 owner since 2019 here. Honest opinion: don't buy a Fantom if you plan to use it in the studio. Too expensive for what you get, sounds are not up to date compared to even cheap VSTis. If you want the sounds, just buy Zenology Pro and add a decent controller. Don't waste time with the DAW integration, it's really not worth it. It's a good MIDI controller but again, there's better options for much less money available. If you're a live player, it COULD be a very good machine. The hardware is excellent on the 6/7/8. But the software is horrendous. FX is limited for such a top-of-the-line machine, sampling capabilities are a joke. Tonewheel organ is great. Pianos are no comparison to the Nord and even the V-Piano from the RD has been stripped down. All other samples are mediocre, don't fall for that "SuperNatural" thing, it's old. As a synth, it's great. Polyphony is a real problem. I don't have any problems using a loop based sequencer but the one in the Fantom is just too limited and basic. There's one Undo and that's it. Many good ideas which are poorly executed. I use it as my main board live but it's so frustrating to know what COULD have been if they just put some LOVE and DEDICATION into this board. It's a really sad story, Roland has lost it's will to do it right decades ago it seems. If you plan on buying the cheaper 06/07/08 beware of the really limited space and some serious problems with the pitch stick. Search KZfaq to learn about it.

Great video however😊

Price

I want to buy montage and fantom both keyboards. For live performance But I'm confused for. Which keyboard should I buy in 88 keys and which one in 61 key For example = 1 (Fantom 8 and montage 6 or 7). 2 (Montage 8 and fantom 6 or 7) So What do you think about that please share your opinion 🙏

What’s the difference between the Fantom 8 and the 08?

Dope, which is better Montage or Fantom?

The best 88 keys workstation keyboard you can buy for under 2k euros maybe...

The keys are small from the usual size or your hands are big? Am Confused!

Is this better than Montage?

This is better than the yamaha montage 8?

I'm supprised this guy is not teaching on YT!?

roland fantom8 or the yamaha modx8+

It's really dusty! PLEASE, clean me! :) It looks like a midi sequencer... Can anyone enlighten if this is true? I came to exactly the right review. I wanted to see the back board... :) So many of Roland's keyboards have an excellent natural sound. I own an A-49 which is a beautifully weighted natural keyboard, the worst is the JD-Xi which has a terrible keyboard but the most amazing sound bank! Those two midi together very well...

Unfortunately all those pianos sound like toys after listening to the Nord pianos. Love your playing though and thanks

guitars are really bad

Sounds terrible - Somethings not quite right - either it was not recorded properly, or the sounds of the roland are simply not as good as Yamaha's alternatives, unless one wants to sound dated.
