Hi Jeff,

thanks the sax sounds awesome. :D I like to play with it. It is an inspirational sound.
i used altosax.sfz Do I also need to try the other files or is that already included in this one sound?

Thanks for all the great samples, I use them all the time. I found an error in the alto sax. It seems that the sample 4_A_p.wav is really a g#4 so that you need to change this line of S3.sfz

<region> lokey=g#4 hikey=a#4 pitch_keycenter=a4 sample=4_A_p.wav

to

<region> lokey=g#4 hikey=a#4 pitch_keycenter=g#4 sample=4_A_p.wav

otherwise a wrong note plays from g#4 to a#4 (1/2 step down).
