A New Step in Roland's Aerophone Range
With the Aerophone Brisa, Roland evolves its digital wind instrument concept by bringing it even closer to the "woodwind" playing sensations, while retaining the Aerophone DNA: great sonic versatility and breath-controlled expressivity. The Brisa stands out with a new SuperNATURAL Winds sound engine, designed to finely translate the nuances, articulations, and techniques typically used by flutists. The result: an elegant, performance-oriented instrument that naturally fits between silent practice, stage, and music production.
Who Is the Aerophone Brisa For?
The Aerophone Brisa targets a wide audience: flutists seeking an expressive digital instrument, saxophonists and wind players wanting to change timbres without completely relearning, as well as beginners attracted to a modern, lightweight, and intuitive instrument. Thanks to the fingerings modes (Flute, Trumpet, Brisa by default, and special "one-hand" modes), it adapts to different playing habits and educational contexts. In terms of styles, it covers classical and film music (flute family, orchestral textures), as well as jazz, pop, electronic music, and more experimental approaches (synths, effects, motion control).
Sound and Design
The Brisa combines a light and stylish body with ergonomics reminiscent of the transverse flute: flute-style keys, integrated screen, and controllers designed to be readable and quick during play. Unlike an acoustic transverse flute, the sound is produced by blowing directly into the mouthpiece, which simplifies sound production while maintaining fine control. The pivoting head helps find the most natural angle, and the moisture absorber helps keep a stable response.
Sonically, the SuperNATURAL Winds engine aims for an organic feel: breath-related dynamics, livelier attacks, and more credible timbre variations depending on playing. You can switch from a concert flute to a jazz flute, explore lower registers (bass flute), then switch to saxophone, clarinet, or trumpet. The palette also extends to ethnic instruments (such as pan flute or shakuhachi), synthesizers, and even drums, allowing composition and arrangement without changing instruments.
