I`m thinking of the Fantom as well, but heard some really good things about the Extreme.
I will try both of them today, so we will see then....:-)

The Korg sound to me is not as natural sounding as the Roland. The Korg has a strange color or sheen that I just cannot get use to liking.

The Roland is the safest best IMHO and has the best SRX cards collection.

BUT it depends on what you are doing. If you want it "really electronic" sounding, you may prefer the Korg.


On the other hand if you ever want an oboe or harp or something like that to sound more natural, go with the Roland.

Once again, the editing on the Roland is the easiest and that allows easier manipulation of the sounds.

If you are in a store comparing these things, bring your own headphones, unless they have a good sound system. Trying them out on a cheap sound system can be dangerous.

Good luck.
