Let me be honest. You are TOO good. It's not only a compliment, but also a warning to the people who are considering to buy an Aerophone GO. I've watched 10+ Aerophone GO reviews, including professional players. Their Aerophone GO sounded like a toy, sheer PCM sound. On the other hand, your sound is so real, so rich. You could use it in a live performance for sure. I almost changed my mind to buy an AE-05, but probably I couldn't play as good as you play (because even professional players can't). So, I'd buy an AE-10, instead. Anyway, I'll watch your tutorials. Thank you.
Alistair Parnell: I hope you are getting big $ from Roland for your videos on the Aerophone. They are really terrific! Thank you so much. BTW, your carefully articulated English is excellent and a big aid in understanding the content you're conveying to your video fans. Best regards.
This is so awesome man thank you so much for this overview!! I just ordered my aerophone GO after watching your videos on it and I was able to compare the different options. I am soo excited. I’ve been playing saxophone since I was a kid and this is just what I needed to bring back the inspiration in creating music for me. I appreciate how thorough you are in displaying all its features. Thanks again and hopefully see some of my aerophone content in the future :)
I’m following your videos and I find them extraordinarily objective and helpful. You are now my aerophone “guru”. I play the alto sax but already decided to buy this little wonder piece of instrument. Just waiting for a trip to the USA, because here in Brazil they cost twice... Many thanks Alistair!
Thanks Alistair! I am new to playing a wind instrument and your videos have helped me to decide to purchase the Aerophone Go and how to make sounds with it, which I hope will turn into music at some point... :-)
Can’t agree more with you about the external amp/speaker combo! While I have an EWI5000 - I also have an inexpensive asian model (an Irin S56) that I play more than anything else - and while the sounds are punk from the instrument itself… they sound 10x better when played through my Cube or Orange combos. Alternatively - use the midi function and play some softsynths. Must admit - the key mechanism on the aerophone is quite tempting… but not yet….
Definately so and I agree with the person below! I notice that the instrument sounds alot more authenthic when connected to the the app via bluetooth. The only issue is that I experience a slight delay when a note is played. Thank you for the insight! Definitely beginning to fall inlove with me AE-05 a little more each day!
DAZ3 LiiONxHeArT :very true! I used to practise AE05 every day and almost forgot my saxophone! For some of songs that I can’t do well by saxophone , I can now to achieve with AE05! Very happy & keep going with this wonderful wind instrument!
Thank you so much. I am going to get the GO model. I live in Notts so I will be contacting you soon for some lessons. I am a flute player. But I had an injury to my neck which gets worse when I hold the flute up with my neck slightly bent. So I want an instrument I can play that will be comfortable. Anyway than you so much for these vids. Frank.
How do you clean it after use? And how do you also store the Aero go when not using it? Cause up to now I can’t find any stand of holder for the instrument lol. Sorry for a lots of question and thank you for always a marvelous reviews and teachings You are my teacher for Aero Go!
I usually remove the mouthpiece and gently clean around the bit sensor with a cloth. You can't clean the inside. With the Aerophone GO I lay it down flat on the table or stand in up in. a corner.
Thanks for another tutorial, I’ve listened to the first 3 several times. They helped me decide on the ae-05 over the ae-10. My Areophone GO is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow! Your new vid has really shown me that the GO can produce wonderful sounds (I was going to test and if I wasn’t happy w the sounds then exchange for the AE-10). One question, does it matter weather I plug into the amp AUX or should I plug into the amp INPUT? I’ll try both anyway... without your vids, on both 05 &10, I probably wouldn’t have considered either, thanks.
Hi. I’d say try both and see if there’s any difference. Usually you plug the Aerophone into the input and perhaps your backing track into the aux. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the videos, it's difficult to find hands-on aerophone reviews. I myself am a beginner hobby musician, mostly dealing with ambient and new-age-ish & world electronic music. However, I wanted to learn a real instrument. Keyboards somehow were not my "cup of tea", I wanted something single-voiced but with wide expression abilities. So I picked Nuvo Clarineo. It's easy to play and I got used to it quickly. However, now I'd like something with better integration in my music production workflow to record MIDI parts or just some draft ideas. So, I started looking at EWIs. Currently I have found only AKAI and Roland. It seems, AKAI EWI USB is outdated and badly supported. Trying to find something for my budget, I found Kickstarter project Vindor ES1 - seems great device for the price with lots of customization, but unfortunately it got sold out before reaching Europe. So, I guess I have to go with Roland but not yet sure which one. Mini seems nice for the price, but I'm kinda used to clarinet-like fingerings already. However, I find it a bit tricky to get those half-notes, so maybe I would be able to play more eloquently with Mini fingerings compared to Go? But I think I'll miss lip pressure control on Mini. I'm so used to adding vibratos for more expression when playing Clarineo. My ideal EWI would be the following: - acceptable latency MIDI connection to a DAW on PC (I'm using Cubase Elements and Reaper) - settings can be adjusted from a PC app (don't care about Macs and iPads) - ability to change key (transposition), so I can shift the notes up/down to accommodate to the song I'm playing to reduce the need to press half notes so often - lip pressure sensitivity (ideally - with ability to map to custom MIDI controller, but I guess it could be done in DAW or soft synthesizer) - price - under 300 EUR. Unfortunately, EWIs are so expensive compared to keyboard synths. Being a programmer and an "electronics tinkerer", I even thought about creating EWI myself based on some online projects. That would require lots of effort.
Thank you so much. The tutorials help me a lot to get along with my AE-05. But I am still so new. My question is how to use the tongue to start or stop the sound in a right way.
Hi Alistar. Sir any tip to improve tenor sax quality on the AE-05? Would be great to have a specific video on having better sax sounds on AE-05 and AE-20. BTW Is Roland doing anything about that? That's the main complain I hear from people. Thank you, as usual it was a great video. Take care.
Hi there. I’m afraid I’m not a fan of the saxophone sounds on the Aerophone but it’s not what I use it for. For me, the Aerophone is an extension of my sound pallet. I'm happy to practice the saxophone on the Aerophone using whatever sound I choose but I don't have any need to reproduce the sound of a saxophone. The other issue is that a sax is capable of making so many different sounds and any built-in sound will never satisfy everyone. If you want to try to adjust the sound I suggest you start with the EQ settings and/ or possibly experiment with blending more than one sound. In my Isax FB, we have a guy that makes a pretty good job of the sax sound but I don't think he makes any changes. It's just the way he plays it. 😊
Are you planning on doing a Mainstage integration video with the Ae-10 anytime soon? Trying to set up a primary framework that allows me to use non-wind controller synths in mainstage would be great! Love your tutorials!
Good follow on tutorial ..... but, once again, what do the sax tones sound like??? A saxophone digital instrument, but no sax tones demonstrated?? What gives? All the extra tones are nice .... but, if I buy one I want to know what the sax tones sound like. Are they that bad? Demo please. Thank you.
Hi. Personally I only use the Aerophone to give me additional sounds. I use a saxophone for saxophone sounds. I don't enjoy the sax sounds on the aerophone so I never play them. I'm sure if you search on UA-cam you can find lots of examples of the sax sounds if you'd like to hear them.
Any chance of a demo of using the Roland with the kenton usb/midi convertor and or the sonnus to drive additional stuff like the XV5050(which is what I have) I have actually bought a AE10 & a GO(ex- sax player getting too old to struggle with my real instruments)
I actually have all the 'stuff'..I would be more than happy to let you use it for testing/evaluation. I'm still a fan of dedicated hardware midi hardware. I also have the Yamaha VL70m unit with the patchman ROM. I started with the original Lyricon and did the WX7..then had a long break(family/kids) and came back with the akai 1400(now have a 1500 as well) let me know..best regards
Let’s do a quick hypothetical here. It has been roughly 6 years since the last time I have done anything with software sound on a computer or a tablet. Not really interested in re-exploring it either. Let’s imagine that I purchased an Aerophone GO (which I have not yet done ending April 2020) and wanted it to trigger a pre-USB synthesizer module, specifically a Roland MKS70. What accessories would I need, please?
You'd need something like a Kenton midi to USB converter (I'd use a computer as the link) so you've got some form of USB to midi. You would also have to be able to edit the sounds on the hardware device to allow CC02 to control either filter cut off or/and expression or at the very leat volume.
Hola desde España!!!. My aerophone go is new and I have a question. The bite bar is not totally in the center on the reed. Is this a problem? I do not use the bite control switch. Regards, and thank you very much.
Hi Alistair, your videos are really really helpful - thank you so much. Following your videos I have bought an aerophone Go and I'm struggling to get a consistant vibrato sound. Some of the sounds have really strong reverb which sort of takes the place of vibrato. Any chance you could explain (or even demo) vibrato on the aerophone and perhaps also altissimo register. Both of these things require embouchure control and I'm not sure how to adjust this to get the same results on the aerophone as I might experience on the tenor sax.
So altissimo on the Aerophone is not like a sax. Make sure you set the right fingering in the settings (I think its sax 2) the just use the altissimo fingerings. They won't all work but most do. The vibrato is something that takes work. It won't feel quite the same as the sax. I'd suggest experimenting with the settings on the app to see what suites you. There has been some update lately and you might prefer the EWIND setting.
When I turn on the bite control on my Aerophone Go, I find that the sound can wobble out of control while implementing Vibrato. It quite unexpectedly wobbles out of pitch, like a bend, usually in transitioning through notes. I'm wondering if there's something wrong with my instrument, or is this just a skill I'm going to have to pick up with practice due to the nature of this instrument. I'm trying to master it, but it's really, really difficult. I've played Alto Sax in the past with great success using Vibrato, so do not understand what's going on here. I do not want to be playing a song with bite control on, trying to use Vibrato, and in the lineup of some notes, this horrible pitch bend comes in. I don't understand why they have the pitch bend in the mouthpiece like that anyway, when the button below the finger rest seems to do the same thing as a pitch bend. Please help. Thanks.
This is difficult to diagnose without see you play. Some players do have to be aware that perhaps their lip pressure is inconsistent. I’ve seen sax players play the Aerophone and loosen their lip for low notes for instance. This is, in my opinion, a bad habit and will make the Aerophone play out of tune. You could also look at the settings for bite control in the app and see if you can adjust it to suit you.
Hi. Growl is usually controlled by a CC message. You would be get growl from an external synth or plugin if set up properly but I don't think its possible directly from the AE-05 internal sounds like it is on the AE-10.
