Digital Wind Instrument
A Collection of Inspiring Wind InstrumentsWind instruments can add effective emotions into music, especially within the genres of classical, pop, rock, and jazz. The sound of the saxophone has entertained music lovers of any age for a long time, and although many people would love to play one, it’s not always that easy. Because there are several types of wind instrument to choose from, selecting one can be a tough decision, especially when you like several of them. Noise levels also make it difficult to practice at home, particularly at night, so staying motivated can be difficult when your practice time is limited or you can’t find somewhere to play.
Roland’s Aerophone GO is a digital wind instrument that solves all these problems. Choose from 11 expressive instruments on board including a range of sax sounds. Thanks to the battery operation and a built-in speaker, you can play them anywhere and practice whenever you like, by connecting a set of headphones. Wirelessly connect your smartphone to access extra sounds, play along with your favourite songs or begin an ensemble performance with up to six friends. If you’ve always wanted to play the saxophone, flute, clarinet, and many more, the Aerophone GO gives you everything you need to get going.

Aerophone GO Plus is a free app that lets you play along with favorite songs from your smartphone, giving you several ways to learn specific songs whilst slowing the tempo of the playback song, or looping a section of the song so you can listen in detail. Using the app gives you access to an additional 50 sounds, covering an even larger variety of musical genres, you can even adjust various performance settings including the sensitivity of breath control and the bite sensor, as well as the customization of fingering type.
Ensemble, Assemble!
Wireless FreedomThe Aerophone GO Ensemble app allows up to seven Aerophone GO players perform together wirelessly. Once connected to this free app, each member of the group can access 19 sounds on the smartphone , and each musician can choose a different sound.
The sound from the group is mixed in the smartphone, and by connecting a small monitor speaker (such as the battery-powered Roland Cube Street EX) everyone can hear and react to the resulting ensemble, ideal for street performances, jam sessions or classroom learning.
Traditional Sax Fingering
Authentic Breath ControlAerophone GO is great for anyone learning a wind instrument, it remains compatible with traditional sax and recorder fingering, so experienced players can use familiar playing techniques. A sensitive mouthpiece-mounted breath sensor also works as a bite sensor, to allow for expressive techniques like vibrato and pitch.
Beginners can instantly enjoy playing the onboard sounds, while more experienced performers will appreciate that they can play Aerophone GO without having to learn a new fingering system or adapt their existing technique.
Note Transposition
Makes Life EasierIf you want to play the saxophone, understanding transposition is vital. The sax is a transposing instrument, which means that the key in which you play sounds different to what’s written on the music score.
For example, if a guitarist, pianist and a saxophonist are jamming in the key of C, the sax will be playing the key of A for an alto sax, or D for a tenor sax. The Aerophone GO’s Transpose function makes it easier to transpose between what you’re reading, what you’re playing and what you’re hearing.
