Thank you for working so hard, putting this together so we can all have a bit of fun on our instruments. I have a really nice pro sax from college days, really trying to get good on that before diving into an expensive purchase like this.
Hey Alistair! Thank you so much! Just got an AE-05 on FB marketplace, and it has easily taken my No. 1 spot over the AE-10. I really appreciate this video!
Thanks to this and your other videos, I'm now confident the GO is what I want. Unfortunately, such instruments are hard to come by in my part of the world. Placed an order with the Roland distributor, now I have to wait 2-3 months! Hope to be playing by Xmas :D
Thank you for explaining at lesss than warp 6 that so many tutorials are...by the time I find the first instruction, they're finishing up with those lightning ⚡ fast mouse moves...
Thank you for the video. That was very helpful. I have the Thor app with the Patchman sounds as well as the Moog app. Because of the information in this video, I can use my Moog app for additional sounds. I am now going to look at my other apps to see if they will work with my GO as well.
Hi Alistair! Love your videos! Would you look at doing a video on setting up the app, AUM, to work with wind synths? It’s a fabulous sound design tool that has tremendous capabilities, but I am a little flummoxed as to how to get all the synths on a global setting to respond to breath.
I really enjoy your video on Aerophone Go. About the Cutoff Frequency, is there a way to modify the cutoff frequency on MacOS Garageband? Would it be possible that you add a video on how to best use MacOS GarageBand with Aerophone Go? Thanks.
I haven't used Garagband really. If you can't find a way in Garageband you could try setting the Aerophone breath sensor to send CC74. Thats the default setting for many synths to receive cut off frequency control.
@@isax.academy Thanks for your quick reply. In the last couple of days, I have decided to go back to MainStage 3 and I bought Swam Violioin as plugins. It has been great. I shall also try your solution with CC74 when needed.
Hi, thank you for all your videos, you are convincing me little by little to buy one Aerophone...I am deeply studying your channel in order to make a good choice! I have one question: do you know if this instrument can properly work also in Sample Tank and eventually in iSymphonic Orchestra on the Ipad? I am using those apps for my little compositions and it would be great to play their winds instruments with the Aerophone... And do you know also if the native app of the Aerophone can be used inside GarageBand app, as the two apps I mentioned before? Again thank you very much for your job!
Hi. Thanks for watching. Sample tank I'm pretty sure can work fine. If you search that on UA-cam you'll probably find someone that already done that. iSymphonic I'm not so sure.
Yes. A usb cable can be used to directly connect to a computer or iPad using the correct connection kiy. See my video ua-cam.com/video/lwFp_AA8hIo/v-deo.html
I must admit I really don’t know the Android stuff very well at all. I think most apps are on both platforms and the AE-10 will connect by usb. However I have heard of some Android devices having issues with latency. This is a problem with the sound on some Android devices I believe. Perhaps someone else here has more experience to share?
Hi. Instructions are on the Patchman website. I think as I remember you have to load them from the iTunes app on the computer when the iPad is connected but I might be wrong. Matt will certainly help you here.
@@isax.academy Yes I figured it out since posting this. The only thing is the bluetooth connection randomly doesnt work and is quite annoying. So I resorted to just using the apple camera usb hookup into the I pad and going that route for now. The thor app randomly doesnt recognize my AE-05 from bluetooth and then sometimes it does. I'm doing a little performance for my grandmas birthday with this and bringing and amp and everything so I need to be sure it connects properly.
Enjoy yours videos! Because I have missing fingers I can only play Roland's basic aerophone. I really like the violin effect but cannot find anything close on Garageband. Do you know if it is possible to connect the aerophone to such a program but record the machine's own effects?
Hi. Forgive me I'm not sure I quite understand your question. You can certainly connect any Aerophone to the SWAM violin and get the best violin sound available today.
Hello. Is it me, or the last versions of the Aerophone GO Plus App ripped off the USB connection feature to an only Bluetooth only way to go? I can’t connect it via USB nor in an Android Phone USB-OTG capable, nor in my new iPad Air with a micro USB to lightning connector. Any tips will be welcome.
Hey there, thanks for another great video. Do you think there will be a new version of the Aerophone AE-10 coming out soon? I'm thinking of getting one but not sure if I should hold off. Thanks for all of your great videos!
Ben, if you mean a hardware update for the AE-10 I don't think so. There seem to be plenty in stock in the shops where for a product this old I would expect it to be hard to find. While stores still have stock to clear they wouldn't be happy to see a new version. It also means Roland won't see it as a very successful product. For that reason I'm not holding off buying because it looks like the AE-10 meets my needs and the odds of a new version aren't great.
I used this app via Bluetooth with the Aero GO, using the app settings Alistair explains. I traded the GO in for an AE-10, which does not have Bluetooth, and cannot figure out how to connect it with a cable. Any suggestions?
@@isax.academy Thanks Alistair. But it's the Minimoog Model D App I'm trying to connect to. That worked fine via Bluetooth but I can't figure out how to connect to it by cable.
I have no problem physically connecting the AE10 with the cable. But I don't know what app settings to use to connect. The Moog app settings you show at 3:00 in the video show how to connect via Bluetooth. Are there equivalent settings to connect by cable?
With a little help, I was able to solve the problem. I needed to set the Aero on an empty Init Tone and turn the volume to zero. I can now get all the preset tones in the Moog and hear them come out of the iPhone. My next task is to get the iPhone to communicate well with a Bluetooth speaker - at the moment there's a long lag.
Yes there can be a slight delay using Bluetooth. It’s actually pretty good with the Aerophone GO and a decent mobile device. I generally the IOS devices tend to be better than the Android devices for latency. For best results use a cable.
i dont understand where did you get those aerophone sounds for the minimoog. I specialy bought the app for these( anyway thanks for all your useful tuttorials
All of the sounds in this video from the minimoog are preset internal sounds that come with the app. All I did was make the settings that are in the video then save them as my own presets.
My Thor Patchman sounds have stopped working. The Aerophone GO Bluetooth connection shows on the iPad and the Thor app “All” is checked (but the Aerophone does not show on the list), yet no sounds are coming out. The Aerophone GO app sounds work fine. Any ideas? Thanks.
Theres always going to be a slight latency but on my set up its very playable. Remember you will always get better results if you can use an audio interface, even on an iPad. I have Hera that some Android devices have problems with latency.
There have been reports of latency on some Android devices. Of course there is always latency but I find it’s very playable on the iOS and Mac devices.
Yes. It seems to be being very well received. Great that Roland are still supporting this model. Much easier bite set up and midi control of lip data. They also fixed a fingering issue that’s been bugging me for ages.
What I'm finding is that the adjustments are sensitive and it takes time to set it correctly for my own Embouchure, in order for the bending to be consistent, I'm a tenor sax paler and the sax reed is more forgiving, also when I installed the update and did the factory reset the reverb and pitch bend range was changed way to high on all my user tones, I am very pleased with the new saprano k sound, hope they have more tone updates soon
Yes I realised my mistake after completing the video. When I make these I’m just a one man show. It takes upwards of 20 hours to make each one and I do make slips quite often. Too much to think about. 🤨

Thank you so much! This is the one video I've been searching for!!
It answered all of my remaining questions. Thank you
Thanks for watching.
Hi Alistair! Love your videos!
Would you look at doing a video on setting up the app, AUM, to work with wind synths? It’s a fabulous sound design tool that has tremendous capabilities, but I am a little flummoxed as to how to get all the synths on a global setting to respond to breath.
Hi. I use AUM all the time. Will try to get a video done on this soon.
iSax - Alistair Parnell I would love to see that one. Thanks for your work
Thanks Alistair!
I dont have any apple products. What other program should I use to import the patchman purchased sounds?
I really enjoy your video on Aerophone Go. About the Cutoff Frequency, is there a way to modify the cutoff frequency on MacOS Garageband? Would it be possible that you add a video on how to best use MacOS GarageBand with Aerophone Go? Thanks.

Hi Alistair
Do you know of any Android synth apps which could be operated by the AE-10?
I must admit I really don’t know the Android stuff very well at all. I think most apps are on both platforms and the AE-10 will connect by usb. However I have heard of some Android devices having issues with latency. This is a problem with the sound on some Android devices I believe.

I bought an ipad for this lol. When you purchase the patchman sounds how to you get them into the thor app?
Hi. Instructions are on the Patchman website. I think as I remember you have to load them from the iTunes app on the computer when the iPad is connected but I might be wrong. Matt will certainly help you here.

You demonstrate these synth apps using the Aero GO. Can you also use them with the AE-10? (The AE-10 doesn't have Bluetooth capability.)
Yes, they will work with all Aerophones but with the AE-10 you need to connect via a cable.

Is this the Propellerheads Thor app?
Hey there, thanks for another great video. Do you think there will be a new version of the Aerophone AE-10 coming out soon? I'm thinking of getting one but not sure if I should hold off. Thanks for all of your great videos!
Roland just released a software update for the AE-10 so there are still improvements being made.
Ben, if you mean a hardware update for the AE-10 I don't think so. There seem to be plenty in stock in the shops where for a product this old I would expect it to be hard to find.

Hi David. The app for the Aerophone GO is not compatible with the Aerophone 10 I'm afraid. The AE-10 has its own app for editing sounds.
@@isax.academy Thanks Alistair. But it's the Minimoog Model D App I'm trying to connect to. That worked fine via Bluetooth but I can't figure out how to connect to it by cable.

Are there any apps that work with the ex flagship Aerophone AE-10?
I believe there is an issue with some Android devices because of the way the phone deals with the audio. The sounds can be delayed.
Isn't there a delay using the app? with bluetooth.
Yes there can be a slight delay using Bluetooth. It’s actually pretty good with the Aerophone GO and a decent mobile device. I generally the IOS devices tend to be better than the Android devices for latency.
For best results use a cable.
Hello from Spain. How can I get a sound library with good sax sounds for Thor o Minimoog
i dont understand where did you get those aerophone sounds for the minimoog. I specialy bought the app for these(
anyway thanks for all your useful tuttorials
All of the sounds in this video from the minimoog are preset internal sounds that come with the app. All I did was make the settings that are in the video then save them as my own presets.
Hi Allistair. What is the difference between the sax and the sax plus patches?
Hi. I’m not sure I understand your question.
My Thor Patchman sounds have stopped working. The Aerophone GO Bluetooth connection shows on the iPad and the Thor app “All” is checked (but the Aerophone does not show on the list), yet no sounds are coming out. The Aerophone GO app sounds work fine. Any ideas? Thanks.
That’s odd. The Aerophone should show up in your input list. Did you try removing the Aerophone in your Bluetooth devices and then reconnecting?
Thank you. I did get it to work. I appreciate all your videos about the Aerophone-they have been a big help to me.
I want to use the Aerophone GO with the Swam Engiine stuff. Do you think I could get buy with Aerophone GO?
Yes indeed. I've used it even with the bluetooth connection and it works very well. The SWAM stuff is the best.
Need a real vibraphone sounds that I can use with the Go? Thanks
Is there latency when using blue tooth with a DAW? If I wanted can I use the usb midi instead of the blue tooth midi?
Theres always going to be a slight latency but on my set up its very playable. Remember you will always get better results if you can use an audio interface, even on an iPad. I have Hera that some Android devices have problems with latency.
Are there latency issues with these apps like there are with Roland's Go+ app?
There have been reports of latency on some Android devices.
Of course there is always latency but I find it’s very playable on the iOS and Mac devices.
Alistair, there's a new AE 10 update, any comments ? 3.10
Yes. It seems to be being very well received. Great that Roland are still supporting this model. Much easier bite set up and midi control of lip data. They also fixed a fingering issue that’s been bugging me for ages.
@@isax.academy Will you be doing a video on this update ? thanks for your great work

By the way, Moog (named after it's inventor, Robert Moog) is pronounced MOAG, not MOOG.
