Tone
A sound that’s assigned to a part is called a “tone.” A tone consists of four partials. You can edit tone settings such as the oscillator, filter, and effect
(MFX).
Part
You can assign a sound (tone) to each of four parts, and make pan and EQ settings for it. One tone is assigned to each part for performance.
There are four parts. Drum kit tones can be assigned only to part 1. If a drum kit tone is assigned to part 1, parts 2–4 are not available.
Scene
A “scene” contains the settings for each part (tone number, pan, volume, etc.), the settings common to all parts (scene effects, etc.), the assignment
settings for each controller, the MIDI control settings and so on.
When performing, it is convenient to save your scene settings in a user bank ahead of time, and then switch between scenes during your
performance. There are 50 scenes x 12 banks, allowing you to save a total of 600 scenes. Up to 12 preset scenes and user scenes can also be
registered as Favorites.
* Detailed settings for tones, parts, and scenes can be controlled from the “Aerophone Pro Editor” app (iOS/Android).
System settings
Here you can make various settings for the Aerophone Pro unit itself.
The assignment and MIDI control settings are found in both the system and scene settings. You can set which setting to use from the “Asgn Src
Breath”–“Asgn Src Key” parameters (p. 14) in the system settings.
What is SuperNATURAL sounds?
These are proprietary Roland sounds created using Behavior Modeling Technology, which enables natural and rich expression that was
difficult to achieve on earlier sound generators.
