Roland has greatly upgraded their flagship woodwind-style synth with the Aerophone Pro, a digital wind instrument that allows any sax or clarinet player to perform ZEN-Core SuperNATURAL Acoustic sounds, or trigger MIDI in a manner more commensurate with their chosen instrument. Simply put, the Aerophone Pro fuses a traditional saxophone fingering system with a library of onboard acoustic and synth sounds, allowing the user to create whole tapestries of sound whenever the moment strikes. Use it onstage to add electronic versatility to performances, or use it in the studio as the hub of your production process.
The Aerophone Pro boasts numerous upgrades to the original. The design is more sleek and elegant; the breath and bite sensors have been redone to provide more authenticity. The sounds are better, and there are more of them. Bluetooth MIDI and a full MIDI I/O section is provided. You can plug in your headphones, route to a speaker, or use the built in speakers. If you’ve ever wanted to play synths as you would a saxophone, this is the instrument for you.
