SAXTRONICS AERION

AERION is the expressive SAXTRONICS synthesizer for MIDI wind controllers and other MIDI instruments. Turn breath, articulation and performance gestures into living, dynamic sounds. Use AERION as a standalone app or as an Audio Unit AUv3 instrument in GarageBand and other compatible hosts. The same license activates both the app and the AUv3 instrument. Automate parameters and save your sound with your DAW project. Explore airy tones, leads, vocal sounds, chords and evolving textures. Create your own presets with three oscillators, filters, envelopes and modulation. Shape the space with chorus, flanger, delay and reverb, and transform your voice with the vocoder. Choose wind or keyboard performance with dedicated controls. Follow each preset’s voice setting or keep a monophonic or polyphonic mode while changing sounds, without rewriting the original preset. For keyboards, adjust velocity, sustain pedal and ADSR; in mono, choose legato or retrigger and portamento. Organize sounds by category, mark favorites and prepare banks for performance. Save and export your library to move it between devices. Adjust the performance response and choose preset effects or a global effects setup. Includes automatic CC2/CC11 breath detection and MIDI Learn assignments. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks the complete instrument, all launch sounds and features, including the vocoder and Audio Unit AUv3. This is not a subscription. The download does not include a free playable version. MWI buyers receive access with their instrument. Future sound collections will be separate, optional purchases. The interface supports Spanish and English, with automatic or manual language selection. The vocoder requires an audio input and, in the standalone app, microphone permission. In a DAW, audio input is routed by the host. MIDI synthesis works without enabling audio input. USB controllers and interfaces may require a compatible adapter and external power. AUv3 requires a host that supports Audio Unit AUv3. Support: contact@saxtronics.com
