Before you delve into the world of digital wind instruments, consider the sleek and innovative Roland Aerophone AE-20. This high-tech instrument is designed for maximum expression, offering the playability of top-tier Aerophone Pro in a more compact, streamlined design.

Developed in collaboration with leading wind synth artists, the Aerophone AE-20 is a top-tier instrument that provides an uncompromising musical response.

This makes it a versatile instrument that can adapt to any musical style. Backed by Roland's SuperNATURAL technology, every nuance of your playing is translated with lifelike dynamics, articulations, and overtones.

The versatility of this powerful instrument extends further with the ZEN-Core Synthesis System, the same advanced sound engine found in pro Roland keyboards like FANTOM and JUPITER-X. This allows you to explore everything from traditional analog synths to modern digital voices, all carefully curated for the unique articulations and extended dynamic range of a wind instrument.

The Aerophone AE-20 also features a familiar reed-style mouthpiece, immediate response, and natural pitch and vibrato control. Its breath and bite sensors are customizable and ultra-sensitive, allowing you to easily configure the fingering for sax, clarinet, flute, recorder, or your own personal setup. With instant transposition and a seven-octave range, you can cover any style without the range limits of traditional acoustic instruments.

The Aerophone AE-20 is designed to blend seamlessly into any musical situation. It supports USB-MIDI, making it a powerful controller for creation with your favorite music production apps. It also comes with the Aerophone Lesson app to help beginners get started, and the free Aerophone Pro Editor for deep customization of sound and performance settings.
