The Roland Fantom FA76 (or also known as simply Roland Fantom) is a 76-note workstation keyboard being the first to bear the "Fantom" name, succeeding the JV-based XP workstations. It contains the Roland XV engine, with 64 voices and 16 parts<ref> resembling the XV-5050 spec-wise and also containing voices from that module as well.

The FA76 would introduce Fantom-series conventions such as the high resolution interface for the keyboard and its 480 TPQN resolution 16-track sequencer, presented on the new backlit 320x240 dot LCD display. Aside from the main workstation functions, it harbors a lot of Roland keyboard conventions such as multiple assignable realtime control options, most notably the D-Beam controller and an upgraded Arpeggiator from the XP series/XV-88.[1].
