[MrBettabeats]

what type of computer do u have, i know its pc but just wondering

[SoundsAndGear]

@MrBettabeats I built my own

[MrVizionary2012]

does this have short stabbs...like staccato articulations?

[SoundsAndGear]

@MrVizionary2012 there are different keyswitches for doit, pow, stabs, trills, staccato, etc.Depending on the sound you want, you may want to checkout chirs hein or cinebrass, maybe even the new fanfar from sample logic, I haven't tried that one yet though it looks good.

[MrVizionary2012]

@SoundsAndGear thanks man...I have been watching alot of your videos and they help me out alot...I would a music producer and would like to use these more so to make instrumentals than actual scoring, thank you very much...I am a little unfamiliar with keyswitches however do you mind explaining it a little please in terms of the articulations you listed above...thanks in advance.

[SoundsAndGear]

@MrVizionary2012 basically a keyswitch means when you press a certain key on the keyboard it will change what articulation is being played in the instrument. They will change depending on the library but they are usually designated by a red color and will be explained in the documentation for any given library.

@robbertzzzzz yeah, I was going to suggest Sample Modelling :) But like you said, this one was made to emulate the horn section, so for that it works well. For solos probably not so much, then again, depends on what you're trying to do of course. Thanks for the comment bro!

[robbertzzzzz]

@SoundsAndGear Very true. And the sax is a really difficult instrument to sample, I've never heard a really good sampled one. Even Sample Modeling's Mr Sax family doesn't come close to the real thing, even though that sounds really good for a sax sample.

But hey, this is a section library. The nice thing about that is that all the instruments fit together. And they were made to do just that. And that's why I'm probably gonna get this one, even though I've played in several horn sections...

[SoundsAndGear]

@robbertzzzzz yeah if you play sax, I'm sure you'll find plenty you don't like for sure. For those who don't have the skills to play, it's definitely a useful alternative.

[robbertzzzzz]

The sustain vibrato on the alto sax sounds really, really fake... I like the other alto sounds though.

But hey, I'm a sax player, why should I use this VST for nice sounding sax things?

This is really nice stuff, I think I'm gonna get it.
