Enhanced By Experts
During the Aerophone Pro's development, Roland reached out to a number of expert wind players to see what they believed was needed to take the Aerophone experience up to the next level.
Thanks to this feedback, Roland were able to enhance the instrument's look, feel, sound, and playability, resulting in a revolutionary instrument, with a highly expressive voice.
Channel Your Creativity
Thanks to the ergonomic design and key layout, the Aerophone Pro makes is easy to let your expertise do the talking.
The fingering options mirror those of an acoustic saxaphone, and includes a high-F# key, making it intuitive to play for those already familiar with the aforementioned sax.
In addition to this, the AE-30 also features configurable controls for both hands, more responsive breath and bite sensors, and even a MIDI input for footswitches, greatly expanding your performance options.
SuperNATURAL And ZEN-Core Synthesis
To get the most lifelike acoustic wind instrument sounds possible, the Aerophone Pro has been equipped with Roland's illustrious SuperNATURAL technology, and packs in the voices of an entire woodwind and brass section for you to choose from.
In addition to this, the inclusion of Roland's ZEN-Core Synthesis System grants you access to a whole host of vintage analog and modern hybrid synth sounds, which - when combined with the unique articulation of a wind instrument - gives you some truly incredible options at your disposal.
Perfect In Any Setting
Whether you're looking to perform live on stage, record your next studio hit, or get some quiet practice time under your belt, the Aerophone Pro can ensure a powerful and expressive performance.
Featuring a headphone jack, Bluetooth MIDI, bult-in speaker, and battery powered option, you can literally pick this instrument up and play it whenever and wherever you wish.
Sound Management
As if all of that wasn't enough, the Aerophone Pro also features some powerful onboard editing tools, which allow you to personalise your sounds on the spot.
Want to customise things even further? No problem, as the Editor App will allow for pin-point accuracy in your parameter changes, as well as letting you manage sound libraries for performing in different situations, and mark any of the vast array of tones available for instant recall later!
