Building on decades of refinement and learning from artists around the world about what makes the ultimate performance synthesizer, Roland's AX-Edge has a sleek, modern design with a customizable look via interchangeable Edge Blades, 49 full-sized keys, and a sound set crafted specifically for keytarists. Plus, this stylish keytar offers plenty of design features that give you the freedom and confidence to truly express yourself on stage.The AX-Edge lets you create an original design that complements your band’s style. It's available in black or white, and each color has individual design elements that make it stand out, like the "none-more-black" keys and removable Edge Blades. It also includes an extra Edge Blade (silver for the black model and gold for the white model).With onboard sounds optimized for stage performance, the AX-Edge produces sounds that cut through, even in a loud band. Dedicated buttons for favorite sounds give you instant access to edgy leads, big fat basses, and all manner of keyboard sounds perfect for the performing keytarist.If you like to customize your sounds, you can connect to the AX-Edge editor app with Bluetooth MIDI and tweak your sounds wirelessly. Splits and layers let you take full advantage of the expansive, full-sized keyboard. And a wealth of stunning new effects, including a master compressor and EQ, give you polished, studio-quality tone in any venue. And thanks to the Tone Remain function, you can switch sounds seamlessly on stage without notes or effect tails being cut off prematurely.Whether you need subtle nuance or over-the-top intensity, the AX-Edge’s intuitive neck controls truly take your performance to another level. These controls include a modulation bar, pressure sensitive pitch ribbon, and easy-to-reach controls for portamento, hold, octave switch, and program change. Plus, many controls can be reassigned to functions that perfectly suit your performance style.Roland AX-EDGE Includes:Owner's manualLeaflet "USING THE UNIT SAFELY"AC adaptorPower cordStrapBlade panel (including Hex key, screws)Ferrite core (including Band for fastening the core)Roland AX-EDGE Features:49 full-sized keys with velocity and channel aftertouch4 parts + vocoder with mic Input320 programs and over 500 preset tones for keytarists79 types of part multi-effects and part EQ, 79 types of program multi-effects, chorus, reverb, master compressor, and master EQTone Remain function switches sounds seamlessly without unnatural sound cutoffRibbon controller, modulation bar, and assignable controls for expressive performanceUp to 4 hours of battery-powered* operation; can also be powered via AC adaptorBluetooth MIDI and editor app for wireless sound customizationWeighs just 9 lbs 5 oz.
