Ok guys another question regarding this issue. Once I've completed this hookup, and both the module and the fantom are running with sonar, can I use the fantom to play both its sounds and the sounds of the module? So basically, I want to use the fantom both for its internal sounds, as well as use it as a midi controler to control the module.

One cable running from the Phamtom OUT to MIDI IN 1.  One cable running
from Interface OUT 1 to Phamtom IN.  One cable running from MIDI OUT 2
to Module IN

Okay, so would the cable setup look like this then?

1 midi cable running out of the fantom's "midi in" port to the
interface's
"midi out" port. Another cable running from the fantom's "midi out" port
to
the interface's "midi in" port, and the last cable running from the
module's
"midi out" port to the interface's other "midi in" port?

Thanks a bunch Phil, and I hope I got this right finally. LOL

That's correct. Although, you will only have one input port connected

to
the keyboard because, the you don't actually play any sounds from the
module

Thanks Kevin. So is the following setup correct then? I would use a
midi
interface that has two sets of midi ins and outs, (a midiman 2x for
example.) The fantom would run through one set of ins and outs, while
the
module would run through the other set?

Sorry about the confusion, and I appreciate the help.

Yes. What you'll do is assign the Phantom to port 1 in Soanr's MIDi

devices dialog.  You'll assign the other module to port 2.  Those
are both outputs.  You'll also assign the MIDi in of the Phamtom to
MIDI in 1.  Now.  When you want a sound from the XP whatever, you go

to port 2 channel 1-16, bank whatever, patch whatever and it plays.

When you want somethignf rom the phamtom you go to port 1, channel
whatever, bank whatever, patch whatever and it plays. Kevin

Actually, I'll give a more detailed description of my setup, because

I'm not following why you mentioned changing wires and what not. I'm

running my Fantom X keyboard via USB to the comp and am using Sonar
to sequence with the Fantom sounds. I just picked up a Roland XV5080

Module, and will access its sounds by midiing it through the Fantom.

With this type of setup, will I still need a midi interface?

Hi Phil:

One is only a module, and needs to be accessed through the other
keyboard. That's why I was wondering if I actually need an
interface if I'm using the keyboard with the comp, and just
accessing the module

through the keyboard.

May be best to get a MIDI interface as you can then have both keyboards connected to the PC at the same time, and you won't have to unplug and replug anything. Pre-amps are hardware. You would usually

plug microphones into them and obviously, can be used ether with
PC's or, Mac's.

Hello All:

    I have a question about a setup, and another one about
recording.

    1. I'm using a Roland Fantom X keyboard via USB with Sonar. I
just

picked up a roland xv5080 module and want to access and play its
sounds through my Fantom. Can I still keep the Fantom connected to
the

comp via USB and access the xv5080's sounds through Sonar if i have

it

running via midi through the Fantom, or am I going to have to buy a

midi interface and run both devices through that?

    2. Often times, I hear people who use a Mac to record their
stuff say that they run their material through a pre amp to get the

material

sounding fatter, (especially the kick.) Are pre amps also
accessible for pc users, or do we have something similar and
comporable?

    Thanks for all help.

    Omar Binno
