Sounds like a great keyboard with some great sounds. The only drawback is that your samples remain in the sample buttons. In other words, you can't sample instruments and play them on the keyboard.
Hello DZ just a Question while we playing a Sample Pad is there any chance to make it change chords just like Arranger Keyboards that you can set it to change chords and put different flavours In your live Music..
It seems like samples are saved with a Song rather than a Studio Set? How do I load samples from a different song? Do I have to copy to the song and then clear it?
Hi Sam, I have a Roland FA 06 and when I play the keyboard with a drum set at the same time, the volume of the keyboard + is much lower than that of the drums itself, is it not possible to adjust the volumes separately? Can't you start the rhythm with a pedal? If the answer is yes. Which kind of pedal and how, since otherwise when I play a piece, which for example starts without a rhythm, I have to remove a hand from the keyboard to start it. Thank you for what you do on RUclips, for helping everyone who has an FA like me, your teachings are invaluable. I personally learned a lot thanks to your videos. Greetings and thanks for everything.😉 Andrea
Hello, is it possible to record a guitare in a PAD when hearing the tempo beat? Other question? Is it possible to record a guitare or a mic (voices) when hearing the musique from the midi channels? Like if these were audio tracks but there are audio PADS? After, I must put the sample in the good bar of the music to synchronise it perfectly. IS IT POSSIBLE to record 2 guitares tracks and 2 voices tracks with this process? Thank you very much
You can record audio (to Pads) from mic/line input along midi performance, but there isn't audio tracks and samples will not be placed in right position, so you need to do this manually ruclips.net/video/jo4Hhbk3gwA/видео.html. In short, you can do this, but FA isn't really for that. It also has a limit of 4 samples played simultaneously.
Good afternoon my friends I'm with a doubt and I need you to help me what happens is that I want to know if I can sample in the Roland fa-06 and put them as a sound bank..
Got FA-06 just yesterday and after initial excitement, I found out that the pads and sampler is extremely primitive. Pads are not velocity sensitive, NO PREVIEW of the sample when importing (crazy), no way to change pitch of the sample, no possibility to change playback mode to one-shot etc. Also no ADSR volume envelope. Great instrument, but sampler is extremely disappointing.
How can I get my FA- 08 To communicate with my Mac book. My Mac does not recognise my Roland FA. I'm having an issue with the Fa Divers So it says on my computer I want to use GarageBand and Create tracks using the keyboards own sounds engine. Please direct me to someone who can help Cheers
i have a question. Is it possible to fasten a mp3 sample on the pad (or a sample pad bank) and a split patch? I mean, if i switching between my split pathes, i want my pads (or banks of pads) switching with it automaticly. Cause I usually use one patch for one song. Thx for help.
have you people noticed something very eerie on these demo videos? they never, ever or rarely any one answers our questions. Just like the Government, they show you what you need to know ONLY, and then they make you go to the store to hook you up or leave wondering what happened after you buy it! duh?!? there we are, stuck with something we never were told about and reselling our stuff for pennies on the dollar... just to be disappointed again...
Hey! I'm buying an FA 08 and understand there are no built-in speakers? Does anyone know what the speaker jack requirements are in the back of the FA 08 and could anyone recommend me some decent speakers for just playing at home? Tks very much!
I have the PreSonus ErisE5’s. They’re very compact, but still quite powerful! Plus I have JBL LSR 308’’s. They’re much bigger, and the bass is louder at lower levels. The E’s bass kick in at louder levels.
YES WE NEED IT ON KEYS..TO PLAY OUR OWN SAMPLE TONES.... ROLAND MUST UPDATE THIS ......... I DO IT ON MY KORG TRITON,,,,,,, FA-08 IS USELESS IN THIS CASE.........
Fender Parker Yes they need that update and the pads velocity sensitive. its needs these updates and ability to load more then two at a time from the axial site. Sounds like it needs these updates before I can spend the money.
my question is also the same,,,,,, I wanna sample my 12 string acoustic guitar and spread it over the keys of my FA-08, but I dnt know how to use samples as tones,,,,, I can do it on my KORG EXTREME nicely..... no one has explained it on FA-06 OR 08 how to do this in youtube or the user manual ........
If you can find a Fantom X or G in mint condition, that's the board for what you're trying to do. I have the Fantom and FA. The Fantom will and the FA won't.
I also have the same problem, wanna sample acoustic guitar and play over keys, I do it on my KORG TRITON , that's PERFECT, but ROLAND FA-08 cant do this,,,,,,,,, useless....... (((((( ROLAND company must do something for this, im not gonna spend more money , we need to spend less and get the best what we need...... UPDATE THIS PRODUCT.......
the last product I had that did that was the fantom x6. I miss the old technology. I really think companies should keep the best of the old and infuse it with he new.
No. Ed. Technically there is a way to make samples be played by keyboard, but it has a restriction of 4 samples played simultaneously. And, no, those samples can't be incorporated in patches you can do on XA, X, G and even on Juno DS.
who the fuck knows!!?? they never tell you the truth, this cocksuckers!! until you buy it and can't return it. Read a comment above about how you can't not use the samples on keys or even change the tempo! I was about to buy this piano and now I'm having seconds thoughts... shit!
Would have been nice if they would have put a better sampler in it so you could create samples and play them across the keybroad keys like on the Kronos or the Fantom
They are not making the Fantom anymore so why would they not include that sample feature to play the sound across the keys, strange. They would increase sales alot, I read many people want that feature. Maybe they can upgrade the software to do it.
Seller will always recommend to buy:). If it fits your needs and budget, then yes, but you really need to know your needs:) Also, you can wait for a few months and look what new products Roland has to offer, because last year they unveiled new Fantom line of products and likely this year will present cheaper keyboards (Fantom 61 key edition costs close to 3200 USD at this moment). If you are a beginner I suggest to look for used FA keyboard in good condition and 30-40 % cheaper than resellers price. Use it for a year, learn things and sale for 100 USD less or no loss at all. And if you like you can keep it. Modern keyboards can easily last 15 years, though you need to be careful with screen and better not use touch function at all. Replacement is costly and without screen you basically will loose 3/4 of it's functionality. Note, if you want a keyboard for home/kids Juno DS by Roland is sufficient for learning things, has PC/Mac editor, can import samples, is reasonably cheap and you can use it for a 5-6 years before deciding if you wanna shift to more professional product such as FA. With DS you will loose on built quality, design, sound quality, sequencer, but inner system of it closely resembles that one on FA, i. e. good on learning things pros do. If you are for piano oriented keyboard you should look at digital piano category of products and if you wanna a keyboard with automatic backing function you should look at arrangers.
Ma Ka If you are good at sampling, the Fantom X is better than both of them. I have the FA and Fantom. I've also read the specs on the MOX which kind of remind me of the Fantom.
when I bought mine at guitar center they didnt even gve me a box with my stuff they just handed me the stuff and kicked me out pretty much and i dont have any of these samples on my keyboard.

Turn them into wav...and import...
Hi Ed, how do you make the mono sounds polyphonic? Because some of the lead sounds would sound good polyphonic. Is that possible to do on the fa 06 ?
Yes, in menu set, all to the left
Can the samples be played up and down the keyboard at all..?
Hello DZ just a Question while we playing a Sample Pad is there any chance to make it change chords just like Arranger Keyboards that you can set it to change chords and put different flavours In your live Music..

Hello I simply need to understand when does my sampler pads work?! For example As soon as i start a studioset it’s off and can’t use it.
will u plz help me that how can play wav file on my fa 06
NO PREVIEW on sample import??? I can t believe it! Even my TD-17 KVX drum modul do that!
Got FA-06 just yesterday and after initial excitement, I found out that the pads and sampler is extremely primitive. Pads are not velocity sensitive, NO PREVIEW of the sample when importing (crazy), no way to change pitch of the sample, no possibility to change playback mode to one-shot etc. Also no ADSR volume envelope. Great instrument, but sampler is extremely disappointing.
I'm looking to buy a second hand fa-06 keyboard I could care less about the pads. I need sampling and multisampling capabilities on the keys.
Keep looking 🤣👍
Like your vids sir
Can you import fruity loop vst plugins on the fa 06
Lol
How can I get my FA- 08 To communicate with my Mac book. My Mac does not recognise my Roland FA. I'm having an issue with the Fa Divers So it says on my computer I want to use GarageBand and Create tracks using the keyboards own sounds engine. Please direct me to someone who can help Cheers
Can you sample stretch tones across the keyboard like the fairlight and E-mus?
Nope.
i have a question. Is it possible to fasten a mp3 sample on the pad (or a sample pad bank) and a split patch? I mean, if i switching between my split pathes, i want my pads (or banks of pads) switching with it automaticly. Cause I usually use one patch for one song. Thx for help.
can I use this FA 06 for home recording studio ? any conflict with Pro Tools software ? thanks

Can you loop with this?
Awesome Review..Thanks for Sharing..
more questions than answers when it comes to this board, WHEN DO U GUYS PLAN ON UPDATING, SO MORE PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF WOULD NT MIND INVESTING IN IT??
YES WE NEED IT ON KEYS..TO PLAY OUR OWN SAMPLE TONES.... ROLAND MUST UPDATE THIS ......... I DO IT ON MY KORG TRITON,,,,,,, FA-08 IS USELESS IN THIS CASE.........
Fender Parker Yes they need that update and the pads velocity sensitive.
its needs these updates and ability to load more then two at a time from the axial
site. Sounds like it needs these updates before I can spend the money.
excellent idea..
Fender Parker i
hello I have a Fa06 and for some time here has a problem that turns on and off alone. could they help me and tell me what my keyboard should do
Call the ghost busters and remove the ghost
How many price for Bangladesh?
my question is also the same,,,,,, I wanna sample my 12 string acoustic guitar and spread it over the keys of my FA-08, but I dnt know how to use samples as tones,,,,, I can do it on my KORG EXTREME nicely..... no one has explained it on FA-06 OR 08 how to do this in youtube or the user manual ........
Fender Parker how did you do that to your triton extreme?
If you can find a Fantom X or G in mint condition, that's the board for what you're trying to do. I have the Fantom and FA. The Fantom will and the FA won't.
You can do this with cheaper Juno DS, it even has "multisampling" option which comes with software editor. DS comes with 32 MBs of sampling memory.
can you sample into the fa06 and spread a sample over the keys?
I also have the same problem, wanna sample acoustic guitar and play over keys, I do it on my KORG TRITON , that's PERFECT, but ROLAND FA-08 cant do this,,,,,,,,, useless.......

the last product I had that did that was the fantom x6. I miss the old technology. I really think companies should keep the best of the old and infuse it with he new.
I also know the korg has kept the sampling feature but there kronos series is expensive
Storey Media get a daw to sample like that, all the keyboards i've seen wont time stretch
+Noi Ya What do you use???
Hello, is it possible to play back more than 4 samples at the same time? I own a fa06 and i just can't figure this out! Please help! Thanks!
Hi there, did you ever figure it out and what do you think of the synth now you've had it a while.
@@maydaygoingdown5602 Hi, the only way was dividing the samples in smaller pieces. Great synth BTW! ;-)
@@LACASAOFICIAL Hey thanks for the reply mate.
One shot for everytime he says "so" 😁
Can we sample like xa on keys
No.
Ed. Technically there is a way to make samples be played by keyboard, but it has a restriction of 4 samples played simultaneously. And, no, those samples can't be incorporated in patches you can do on XA, X, G and even on Juno DS.
Help, I had three banks filled with my samples. Yesterday all of my samples are gone... I have a 32 gig sd card installed. No idea what happened. Jon
Can you load a full song length? Like backing tracks
If it comes with an 4 GB SD card, what is the highest memory card size it accepts ?
on the roland site they say up to 32 gig is recommended. it even accepts sdhc cards
Can You plug in a bass? will it pick up the frequencies well, or will it sound muffled ?
who the fuck knows!!?? they never tell you the truth, this cocksuckers!! until you buy it and can't return it. Read a comment above about how you can't not use the samples on keys or even change the tempo! I was about to buy this piano and now I'm having seconds thoughts... shit!
@@Phoenix-One0922 Wow I was just about to buy one on offerup. You saved me some cash!
@not_a_bug_but_a_feature yeah, i think thats what I'm looking for. Do you have any idea how much these cost now? Thx

I bought a second on June. It works perfectly!
Hi.What is better Yamaha MOXF6 or Roland fa 06??
+Ma Ka
Man get a Korg Kronos, that's the best workstation in the world.
Workstation on Fa is easyer to use
Jan Martin Ulvåg
I agree with you 100%
The Kronos is good, but it's very complex to use.
Ma Ka If you are good at sampling, the Fantom X is better than both of them. I have the FA and Fantom. I've also read the specs on the MOX which kind of remind me of the Fantom.
Best keyboard..
when I bought mine at guitar center they didnt even gve me a box with my stuff they just handed me the stuff and kicked me out pretty much and i dont have any of these samples on my keyboard.
No matter where i was skipping this Guy just was talking.
Same😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
IF you cannot salple a sound from another keyboard, then this sampler is useless.
This video doesn’t show what you’re talking about! Take a guitar or sing smth in Your mic. Then I believe You!
le sampler n est qu un simple magnéto . ni plus ni moins.
q pesao el toro sentado
bla bla bla
no need speaking.
