This sax growls, soars and roars.

The style originates in 1950’s rock ‘n’ roll, but the sound is a timeless cross-genre staple featured in 60’s R&B, soaring ballads of the 70’s, and instrumental television themes of the 80’s and 90’s.

Caution: In legato mode, the BGS will transform your midi into a time machine of bluesy bends so hot you may need to use the [newly introduced] vanilla key switch feature to reign it in.

This is a one-of-kind virtual instrument that is a must-have for any producer or media composer.
