Roland FANTOM-08 Workstation Synthesizer Keyboard 88 Note Weighted
Roland FANTOM-08 Workstation Synthesizer Keyboard 88 Note Weighted
The Roland FANTOM-08 is an 88-note workstation synthesizer featuring a fully weighted keyboard for an expressive and immersive playing experience. Powered by Roland’s ZEN-Core and SuperNATURAL sound engines, it delivers thousands of high-quality acoustic and electronic tones, deep sampling capabilities, and intuitive sequencing tools. The Virtual ToneWheel Organ, TR-REC-style drum programming, and clip-based sequencing provide a seamless creative workflow.
Designed for performance and production, the FANTOM-08 includes a colour touchscreen, high-resolution knobs and sliders, and seamless integration with DAWs like Logic Pro, MainStage, and Ableton Live. The 4x32 USB audio interface and onboard vocoder add even more versatility, while the lightweight yet durable chassis ensures easy transport for musicians on the move.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Roland FANTOM-08 is the perfect balance of power, playability, and portability—ideal for musicians who demand professional sounds and creative flexibility.
