Contrabass, Bass, Baritone and Piccolo Saxophone presets!

[benjamind]

Well,

I've heard that people are after some rarer saxophone sounds. I love the sax myself, but I only have a real alto sax...

Well, I managed to do a bit of study into saxophone playing ranges and worked out what pitch adjustments were needed to get it sounding, well, almost authentic.

I've managed to cook up some lovely sounding sax presets. These are:

Expression Piccolo Saxophone
Expression Baritone Saxophone 1 and 2
Expression Bass Saxophone 1 and 2
Expression Contrabass Saxophone

These are SampleTank 2 presets, extract them into your Sampletank 2 Presets folder. I believe you may need to have Sampletank 2 XL as these sounds use the Expression Alto, Tenor and Soprano sax sounds. These basically use the sounds and adjust the actual pitch of them.

I'm working on creating standard Piccolo, Baritone, Bass and Contrabass sax presets (from the non Expression sounds), these will be provided shortly.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

In terms of sampling, who said small isn't beautiful ?

Thanks.

They are presets, which use the samples that come with ST2XL.

I'm now working on doing the same things for the other standard sax sounds.

Hope you'll enjoy them as much as I do.

Regards
