The Roland AE-10 Aerophones design features a combination of traditional saxophone fingering and flexible onboard tones enabling the instrument to perform in a variety of musical styles. This versatile instrument is suitable for professional and travelling musicians because of its ability to record in the studio and on stage. Players may recognise the familiar saxophone fingering system responsive SuperNATURAL sounds and breath sensor that performs just like their favoured acoustic horn. The AE-10 comes with built in speakers battery power capability and DAW connectivity. The large sound selection enables players to recreate saxophone models from soprano to baritone as well as wind instruments like clarinet and trumpet string instruments and even synths.
Play Straight from the Box
Roland has used a traditional saxophone fingering system on the AE-10 Aerophone which allows players to easily transition from old to new without having to learn a whole new technique. This model comes with a sensitive mouthpiece-mounted breath sensor that also works as a bite sensor to give players the opportunity to express techniques like vibrato and pitch. Even beginners are now able to enjoy playing the various onboard sounds straight from the box.
An All-in-One Creation
Although nothing can beat the first sounds a musician played on their acoustic saxophone the nostalgic notes are not suitable for every style of music. Players are now able to branch out of their comfort zone and develop in areas they havent ever had the chance to with their old sax. Whatever scenario they find themselves in the Roland Aerophone AE-10 has the onboard digital sax sounds that will enable them to play comfortably. The options include alto tenor soprano and baritone sax types. Thanks to Rolands advanced SuperNATURAL modeling technology each one responds just like their acoustic counterparts to their playing dynamics and articulation. As well as this the Aerophone is now capable of producing a performance with a feature which automatically switches between sax types by key range.
