SWAM Saxophones v3

This collection is comprised of the four instruments of the standard saxophone quartet: Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Baritone Saxophones. Sample-based saxophone libraries often link dynamics to fingering, but these two elements are fully independent in real wind instruments.

SWAM Saxophones allow independent control of these primary expressive parameters, continuously and in real time.

SMALL FOOTPRINT

• Disk space: 473 MB
• RAM: 100 MB for each instrument instance

CPU LOAD

The realism and expressiveness of the SWAM instrument requires a computer with at least a 1.6 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU for running a single plugin instance. Less powerful systems may also prove satisfactory, but may require larger buffer sizes, involving higher latencies.
