The Roland AE-05 Aerophone Go Digital Saxophone is a great option for both beginners and experienced players. It offers 11 instrument sounds, including soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, allowing you to explore different music styles. The instrument is portable with battery operation and a built-in speaker, so you can play anywhere, and using headphones lets you practice quietly at any time. The free Aerophone Go Plus app adds 50 more sounds, includes 11 tutorial songs, and lets you connect to your smartphone wirelessly to play along with your favorite music or join an ensemble with up to six people. Weighing just 1 lb. 9 oz. (695 g) and with a soft case, it’s easy to take with you. The Aerophone Go supports common saxophone and recorder fingering, so experienced players can use the same techniques, and the breath sensor allows for expressive playing like vibrato and pitch control. The Transpose function helps you easily adjust between what you’re reading, playing, and hearing, making it a convenient and accessible choice for wind instrument players.

The biggest problem for me is the layout of the low octave keys as shown on the picture comparing AE-10 vs. AE-20. You need to have a very long left thumb to reach the low octave keys and still use your other left hand fingers accurately for the other keys! Moreover, the key travel when pressed is not consistent for all keys. Roland should have kept the old AE-10 keywork design.

The bundle as offered by Austin Bazzar was a great value. They included a microphone cable as an added bonus. Delivery was very prompt and efficient. The instrument is excellent for practicing without bothering others. The sound quality is much better using headphones. The on board speakers are good for trying new sounds, fingerings, and playing new passages on the fly. I am looking forward to playing this with an amp to hear the sound quality outside of the headphones.This instrument is very robust and can be as complex or simple as desired but always sounds great. Some sounds or "scenes" are very synth sounding but hey this is a wind synthesizer at heart. This instrument can never replace the sound quality and timbre of an acoustic saxaphone. I would rate this product higher if it performs during a live performance but hope to file an update soon.

This is an excellent EW instrument, and the supplier- Austin Bazaar was very supportive in replacing a faulty instrument and sending the missing parts. Highly recommended.
