It is so nice that Roland gave us such a generous amount of user scene locations. No need for swapping banks out to a computer. All my scenes are available all the time.
well yeah, but then you buy one new partial pack with new samples like the orchestra pack, import it and half of them arre gone ;) then add a second pack and nearly all are gone ... even though most of those sounds are not useable, you cannot really listen to them without importing them
@@DonGeatschos fair point. I don't usually buy sound packs for my synths so I haven't come up against that. I was comparing the AE with synths like the Yamaha DX7 or MicroKORG - I always find the patch I want to use is on the computer, not the instrument.
I am a fan of your channel. I learn a lot from your videos. I am using Aerophone AE20. Previously I used Aerophone AE10, I always assigned the sounds of AE10 on the keys of the flute. You Can you guide me to do the same thing on AE20? Thank you very much
Hi. You can set the flute fingering in the menu on the AE-20. Make sure you look at the fingering chart very carefully. You have to keep your right hand little finger down for nearly every note.
Of course it’s possible. I’m just trying to start with the basics for those that struggle with the app. In fact I tend to use this method quite often if I just want to make a quick edit or copy a sound to a new place, say for a gig sequence.
Q. can you edit the same amount of things on the actual AE-20 as the iphone app? I'm asking mainly for future proofing if Roland do no update the phone app in years to come, so we are left with just the aerophone to edit with. For example partials used ands fx settings like on the phone app?
Hi Alistair! I’ve been practicing on the ewi 5000 for a year now, using swam instruments, especially like the violin and oboe. I have a feeling that the ewi lacks the subtlety of expression, dynamics and other things. Do you think it’s worth switching to Roland AE- 20 ?? Thanks!
Hi. It’s easy to overlook that the musical performance is down to the player not the instrument. Most electronic wind instruments are capable of producing expressive nuances in the right hands. Sometimes it takes research and patience to get the best out of an instrument and of course some instruments will suit some players more than others. If you feel comfortable on an instrument you will most likely play more naturally and expressively. The EWI and the Aerophone are quite different instruments. No one can answer your question because it’s down to how you suit an instrument and your own abilities to play expressively.
Hi. The first thing I’d say is it’s not a saxophone! The key difference is that Yamaha have gone down the route of making the key work look and feel a bit like a saxophone. However they have very limited sounds and no bite sensor. That for me means very little musical expression. It’s aimed at being super simple but super limited. The Aerophone has keys in the same layout as a sax but is an instrument in its own right. The Roland has a huge library of sounds and great bite and breath controls. It also has other performance controls, a great app and is expanding its functionality and sound library all the time. For me they are completely different instruments for completely different players. If you just want something with keys like a sax and is very simple to use go Yamaha. If you want an instrument which you’ll never get tired of exploring and you aim to play with musical expression then you should try the Roland.
@@isax.academyThat's an interesting answer. Thanks you very much. To explore all the functions of Aerophone AE30 is really difficult....in terms of language and without an instructor, so I only use the basic functions... that's a pity.. .!!! Roland has made a great product...but perhaps a thoughtful guide to making those great functions available to all countries without the same language...then surely Roland's Aerophone will More popular and more widely used !!! 🎉
Having the same question I tried to find out how to delete individual user scenes in the Aerophone Pro Editor (iPad, connected via Bluetooth). I see the list of user scenes, but I don’t see a delete option?

I want to buy myself an AE20. Will it work with swam tools? Thanks!
Yes it will
Curious why you don't write edited scenes from the app? Seems a bit easier to me. Just asking.
Of course it’s possible. I’m just trying to start with the basics for those that struggle with the app.

Those details can only be edited via the app but Roland always do an app update when they update the Aerophone

How does roland's saxophone compare to yamaha YDS150?

Is there a way to return the user scene back into the init scene
Strangely I don’t think there is directly on the Aerophone.
You can delete a scene on the app.
