Sax still relies heavily on bends and scoops. Try listening to a master, and try to count how many notes AREN'T bent, scooped moaned, etc.. Not too many!

Even with SA2, I still find most 'one handed' sax emulations just don't QUITE nail it. If I HAVE to do something sax-y, I'll go with a whole sax section, and that doesn't require quite as much bend lever work.

Sadly (for my own good!) I am unconcerned if it impresses the Seniors... it has to impress ME first, and being a horn player, I'm hard to impress wink
