It’s time to escape the keyboard rig and rock the stage. The stylish AX-Synth represents Roland’s new generation of remote keyboards, but for the first time, this one has a sound generator onboard. It’s self-contained and equipped with powerful, solo-oriented sounds from Roland’s latest, greatest synths. Strap on an AX and steal the show.
All In One
Plug in and play — what could be more convenient? The Roland AX-Synth has everything you need to steal the show. Unlike most remote synths of yesteryear, the AX Synth is self-contained and loaded with hundreds of Roland’s greatest sounds. External MIDI devices are not required. Everything is built-in and ready to rock.
Control Freak
The AXSynth is packed with cool controllers for expressive live performance. Glide your fingers over the Ribbon Controller for ultra-smooth pitch bends. A Modulation Bar and dedicated control knobs are also provided for real-time sound shaping. Wave your hand over the invisible D Beam for attention-getting effects.
USB MIDI
While the AX-Synth Shoulder Synthesizer is completely self-contained, it’s also capable of driving external instruments via MIDI. Plug into a MIDI device, and enjoy an unlimited world of sounds and textures, all controllable from the AX Synth.
Program your Own Sounds with Dedicated Editor Software
The Roland AX-Synth has a vault of great solo sounds onboard, but if you want to customise your sounds, you can do so easily and conveniently with the dedicated PC software editor/librarian application. The AXSynth’s USB/MIDI connector makes communication to and from your computer fast and convenient.
