Which One ??? YAMAHA MODX-8 or ROLAND FANTOM -08 Ten Differences

I love my MODX-8. It has been very reliable and sounds great. Building performances is relatively easy. I haven't been impressed with the Pianos or thee electric piano presets. It's pretty simple designing a nice EP tone on the MODX. The strength is the organ and synth tones. As a stage instrument I'm not much for menu diving with the MODX and I have other synths to use. I also have a Yamaha PSR E463. The MODX is more similar to the PSR than the Montage and all three have AWMS2 engines. The MODX lacks after touch. The Fantom has expressive playing. The keybed for me feels great and the keys have friction ridges that are tactile perception level (you don't really notice it but its there). The tones are fantastic (tone=piano, brass, ep, synth, etc.). Roland combo bend-mod lever is located on the left side, with an S1 & S2 switch. The wheels are located above. The MODX only has wheels, not a lever. The Fantom doesn't allow hands-on ADSR, but filter sweeping is easy with standout Cutoff and Resonance knobs. The input selector lettering is located on the top, which is great. (I once had a MODX gig where the sustain pedal was plugged into the the wrong input for the first three songs and it wasn't fun). The Fantom has 16 sample pads, and eight sliders. The MODX only has four. The four slider thing with the MODX isn't a crucial issue. Some presets have more than four parts, so adding parts or adjusting requires button pressing, zone selecting and whatnot. That aspect isn't stage friendly. For convenience sake I typically make four part (depending on the song an electric piano, brass, strings, a piano) and then adjust those four presets for volume and then split and layer them across the keyboard. While splits/layers will still happen with the Fantom, the level of layers (eight) with slider access is twice that of the MODX. Neither instrument provides illuminated levels. The screen size on the Fantom is smaller and gets cramped when all 16 parts are shown. That said, the appearance is fantastic and it's easier to visualize what is being played. The MODX screen is larger and the touch screen after three years and dozens of performances only froze once. It has withstood condensation on many occasions. I would consider it rugged, but I treat it with extreme care and caution. Both instruments weigh about the same. The Fantom is two pounds heavier, but feels much heavier than the MODX because it is denser. Although longer, it isn't as wide or tall as the MODX.
