I've been playing the saxophone, off-and-on and as an amateur, for about 20 years and I've got a soprano, an alto and a tenor already. However, I was attracted to the idea of a wind synth since it allows me to practice my finger-work and scales without disturbing my neighbours, the cats or Mrs R. I made the purchase well aware that it wouldn't help much with mouth technique/embouchure and that I still need to practice the "real" sax as well. @@ -40,4 +41,4 @@ Initially I had quite a lot of pain trying to get the instrument to talk to Ubun ## Conclusion -Generally speaking I'm pretty happy with the AE-10 so far. I think it has a few rough edges that the fancier AE-30 probably smooths but at half the price, the AE-10 seems to be a great entrypoint for saxophonists looking to mess about with wind synths. +Generally speaking I'm pretty happy with the AE-10 so far.
