Ms. Sax S.

Ms. Sax S. is a Virtual Instrument, designed and programmed for a new, proprietary platform, built on the specifications of Stefano Lucato's SWAM (Synchronous Wavelength Acoustic Modeling) technology.

Ms. Sax S. uses samples as a base material, chromatically performed by a professional sax player over a very wide dynamic range, and recorded with state-of-the-art technology. The resulting timbre is therefore that of the real instrument. The underlying, proprietary technology allows continuous interpolation among different vectors like time, dynamics, pitch and formants. Advanced real time processing techniques yield realistic legato/portamento, vibrato, ornamentations & trills with phase continuity, constant-formant pitchbends, and virtually any kind of articulation can be performed in real time. The user can vary timbre, harmonic structure and formants, choose type of attack, set the intensity of subharmonic, growl, flutter tongue, key noise, breath noise, pipe resonance, overblow and much more.
