This library captures the character of the Fantom G6 but fails to capture the experience of owning one. It is a shallow, static photograph of a deep, dynamic synthesizer. Unless you find it for under $20, skip it and use Roland Cloud's official Zenology or the free Roland Canvas.
Because these are typically third-party creations, you can find them through specialized sound design platforms:
Does anyone know of a user-made Kontakt pack or a conversion from the old .FANS file format? I’m willing to pay for a quality sample pack.

When you save your DAW project, every parameter, filter cutoff, and envelope tweak on your virtual Fantom is saved instantly. You can also easily automate parameters using your DAW's automation lanes—a tedious task on original hardware. 4. CPU and Space Efficiency
To make these classic sounds sit perfectly in a modern mix, try implementing these production techniques:
: Similar to the hardware's 16-part capability, Kontakt allows users to layer these sounds extensively within a single instance. Using Kontakt WITH a Hardware Fantom G6
