I have Roland Fantom G7.

I did a LONG research before I got it. I was torn between Fantom G & Yamaha Motif XS. I LOVE many of the Motif XS' sounds (some great acoustic sounds), but in the end I've chose Fantom G because, even Fantom-G is Not perfect, it is THE POWERFUL WORKSTATION out there.

After about 6 months of working with it (performing on stage & at my homestudio) I am still very happy with my choice.

I've chose Fantom G because:

1) It is the closest workstation to DAW (writing & recording a whole song Midi & audio is easy).
2) Great sampler, with great connection of Phantom mic./Guitar/Line In etc.
3) "Skipback" function that record 40 seconds ALL THE TIME, so if I improvise and just really LOVE what just happen - I can "pick" it and start working with it on a new fresh song.
4) Great sounds overall (though, some more some less as any workstation & as a pianist, I must say that the pianos are so so...)
5) Wonderful abilities for Live performance (Live Mode) & seamless patch changing.
6) Great keyboard, wonderful screen, great pads, sliders & knobs.
7) Interesting & powerful ARX CARDS potential.
8) Good patch samples & powerful synthesis options.
9) Amazing potential overall, that I am sure will get better and better.

BTW, Roland-US released a brand new Toolkit with:
# Over 600 new rhythm patterns
# 14 new rhythm kits
# Over 100 new chord memories
# 96 new RPS phrases
# New edits of the most popular arpeggio phrases.
