Does What Sample-based Instruments Can't Do
Thanks to Audio Modeling's cutting-edge SWAM physical modeling engine, SWAM Saxophones is one of the most expressive, realistic orchestral virtual instruments on the planet. This software includes four instruments — soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones — and unlike sample-based libraries, its dynamics and fingerings are fully independent of each other. Combine SWAM Saxophones with your favorite MIDI controller for real-time, continuous control over the main expressive elements of the instrument. Benefit from streamlined MIDI mapping for easy setup and control, advanced options for fine-tuning your parameters, and easy visual confirmation of your instrument's key range. SWAM Saxophones boasts all-encompassing platform support, minimal data storage requirements, and an ultra-light CPU load. Whether you deploy it for composition, production, or performance, Audio Modeling SWAM Saxophones simply does things that sample-based software instruments can't.

Expressive real-time playability
We're blown away by SWAM Saxophones here at Sweetwater — its expressive real-time playability is second to none. Since it's not restrained by a pre-recorded sample library, this orchestral virtual instrument is able to realistically replicate the full gamut of articulations, both via real-time MIDI control and with your DAW. SWAM Saxophones gives you control over dynamic expression, staccato/legato/portamento note transitions, glissando/expressive legato, vibrato depth and rate, portamento time, harmonic structure, subharmonics, growl, flutter tongue, formant, breath noise, key noise, dynamic pitch, overblow, micro-tuning, main volume, pan pot, and reverb mix.
