Roland just dropped the HUGE Fantom EX upgrade for the flagship Fantom synthesizers. In this video I talk about what's included, upgrade my Fantom 6, then demonstrate all the new scenes and their associated engines.

As a couple of you have noted, the SH-101 expansion does not show up after installing the EX upgrade - that's because Roland held it back from the initial release. They say it will be made available to all EX purchasers later next month.

*UPDATE* Roland has heard the outrage from owners of Fantom who already purchased n/zyme: they will be sending an email to n/zyme purchasers containing a discount code that can be applied to Fantom EX. If you haven't already bought EX, hold off until you get that discount code!
