AX-Edge Editor

I cannot update my ax edge software and thus cannot use the app at all. It keeps telling me to update my keytar, but I am unable to. Keytar does not work well without the app, and Roland offers no support

Such a fun synth but it’s as if the editor never made it past beta testing. Usability low. I wish they would improve this.

When I started out, I was hopeful, optimistic about using my new Ax Edge for gigs, especially at smaller venues. The good news is, the Ax Edge works well for this. The bad news is, the editor app is terrible!! To begin, the Bluetooth interface seldom works. Why is this even a problem? I bet I own 2 dozen BT devices, but this one doesn’t like to work. It is difficult to get it to stay “on”, on the keyboard. It isn’t found by my phone (Android), it s found by my iPad but only connects once and a while. I can’t believe this is an issue… For the app, if you do get a BT connection: - user “unfriendly” tabs, layers, screens - screen will not rotate to landscape orientation - phone resolution is “grainy” for a tablet - no separation of tones into categories causes scrolling through all tones when searching - no ability to manage tones or move around in library - no computer interface Keep in mind that tone editing on the fly or during a performance is nearly out of the question. With this in mind, basic use improvements would be: - the Editor and file management should be available as a hard-wire option to a computer - the screen should at least rotate when using a tablet - screen resolution should auto-adjust based on platform used Nice instrument, poor editor…bad on Roland
