Cool soprano sax Kontakt lib $30

From Zero-G: https://www.zero-g.co.uk/store/sax-supreme-p495.php

Regularly $80, today only for $30 (discount code: SAX62). Sadly, even at the discounted price I can't afford it this month, so I figured I'd at least let you all know about it so maybe somebody else can score it. 

It sure sounds good. Listen to the "Classical" demo. Hope they plan alto and baritone versions.

What the heck. $30 can't be wasted if I find at least one song for it, right?

If you're looking for Sax plugs?

Please consider Sample Modeling... They are the real deal.

The others aren't bad? But they are not as good. If you don't have a sax player but want one? 

Samplemodeling...

There are girls you look at and say, yes, she's pretty? 

And then there are girls who when you see them? You say "Wow..."

That's samplemodeling... They will make you say "Wow..." And no, I don't work in the music industry or am I am anyway connected with these guys, other than being a very happy customer.

They are not the cheapest? Nor do they sound that way. You will not be disappointed with the good people at Samplemodeling. I have been very satisfied with their products and their quality. They have some brass and other wind instruments as well? And I have been begging them to develop/release a  solo Violin. I believe it would be "epic..." 

Watch Stephano play "the sax?"

Not just the 1st part, watch it all the way through... It's not long. Their Sax plugs are amazing.

Yaa, a bit pricey.
I'll wait for the AudioMIDI  Samplemodeling all brass+winds for $29.00 no brainer.
 
They'll do that after the ultrararenever Omnisphere 50% off sale, roight?

Got to play with this, a little, over the weekend and I feel like it is worth the $30. Can't find much about it on the net and the manual is only about 5 pages of general info.

I wanted to set the vibrato up to use aftertouch vs. the default mod wheel. Went into the script, per the manual, and changed the selection in the drop down box to aftertouch vs. mod wheel (amt CC#=1) but I get no vibrato when applying aftertouch. Just curious if any other users have tried this with positive results.

Hopefully I'll get to play with it more tommorrow and try some other keyboards to see if that makes any difference. Perhaps I have interpreted things wrong but there are several alternate controllers, in the drop down list, that the vibrato can be assigned to. 

Anyway, hoping someone here has had the chance to play with this and might shed some light on it.

Kind regards,
Rick

I have Kontakt 5, I'm going to try and get to this product this week.

@BAPU,

Thanks Ed, I will be interested in your opinion as it may just be me vs. the library.

@Bit,

No reason at all to feel sorry my friend. I listened to the demos also and honestly they sound great.

There are two (2) different .nki's that come with the library, one for Kontakt 4 and the other for 5. That is the only reason I thought/suggested the library may behave better in 5.

The script probably does still need some work as they do print the following warning:

IMPORTANT NOTE!
Before playing any note on the saxophone the first thing to do is move the modulation wheel on your keyboard or on the Kontakt Interface.
This will enable the vibrato and legato scripts. It is very important to remember to do this before playing for the optimal functioning of the instrument.
 
Almost like the script needs to learn/detect the mod wheel. I did not try to open the script as I'm almost sure they would have it locked...

The funny thing is that it appears to have been released in July 2012 so I would think someone would have made some kind of comments on it. I really can't find much about it on the net. I did get a support email address so I'll fire something off and see what kind of response I receive.

Kind regards,
Rick

Have not go to this yet. Also going to demoing SaxLab too.

I'd love the package Robby mentioned but I just cannot afford/justify it for the foreseeable future.

Well there's Kate Upton?

And there are other women...

It depends on your expectations I guess? 

You can have your wife/girlfriend? (I'm sure she's hot...)  NOT!!??

Or you can have Kate Upton? She's not free? Like the wife, or GF?

Kate is not really that hot??? Well? Maybe she is? But if your wife? Or girlfriend is "good enough?" Then GFY! (Good For You!)

Personally? I think you fantasize about Kate... At least I admit it? And Sample Modeling? :-) Well...

Or there's your woman? I'm sure she's hot too? And she's less expensive? So therefore, she's better than Kate? According to the logic above? The width of her *** is "irreverent."   

You need to understand people? You can drive a Kia? Or you can drive a Benz... When it comes to a sax plug? 

You can afford a Kia? "Guess what?" You can afford a Benz... ;-) Life is too short to play a Kia...

And if a Kia is good enough??? Then why would anyone settle for your music? Why wouldn't they accept something "less?"


"Oh my? No he didn't? Oh yes he did... Either it's the best or it isn't? And if 2nd best or 5th best has your name on it? Well then giddy up..." 

If you want the best? Then check this shiz out... "Again?" If the sound/tone of your sax is not important? Then nevermind...
