Silver Queen
The EXS24 sample instrument "Silver Queen" is a multi sample and multi layer
sampler instrument containing recordings of Per Boysen's silver Conn tenor
sax that was built in 1914. The mouthpiece used for the original playing is an
Otto Link nine star, meaning the opening between the metal and the bamboo
reed is extremely wide. In combination with a plexi covered reed this
mouthpiece gives an extraordinary deep sound. Every note was sampled
twice: one tender and breathy note and one loud and growling. The sampler
does morph between these two expressions based on MIDI Breath, Expression, After touch or
any other preferred MIDI parameter. Silver Queen comes with several sampler instrument
versions so you can use the one that corresponds to the specific physical MIDI instrument you
are playing. Or you can modify the sampler settings as you wish.
