Adding Saxophone to Miroslav Philharmonik 2

[fritzs]

Hello IK Techs,

Any chance you could add Saxophones to the instrument list in Miroslav Philharmonik 1 & 2 for users? I was trying to put together an eight piece pop brass section based on Arranger Charlie Capello's recording session of Laura Nyro's wonderful recording of "Eli's Coming" for use on one of my own compositions. It was three trumpets, two tenor trombones, one bass trombone and tenor and baritone saxophones.

Hello fritzs and welcome to the forum.

I think the issue here is that the sax is not strictly an orchestral instrument, although it has been adopted into some forms of 'classical' music.

There are tenor and baritone saxophones included in SampleTank, but you could also add you request to the official Miroslav Wishlist here viewtopic.php?f=12&t=19886"

Hope that helps

Right, the saxophone wouldn't have been in the traditional orchestra that Miroslav Virtous recorded. However, we've expanded Miroslav Philharmonik 2 with Orchestral Percussion so I'd definitely follow garfy's suggestion to add this request to the official wishlist.

Also, noting Miroslav's involvement in non-orchestral settings as well as with at least one legendary saxophonist, it could be a fit. And for today's trivia question - who was the saxophonist?
