    Looking for a kontakt library or a virtual instrument capable of producing the extended saxophone techniques such as "multiphonics, altissimo, microtones, (reed) vocalizations, percussive valve-work, clicking keys, and growling" that Colin Stetson has mastered.

    I realize you're probably never really gonna get that close with a software instrument or even a sample based instrument, but I'm just looking for the closest thing.

    Here's some examples of Colin's incredible work:







    Thanks.

    Gonna reply to this myself, feel like it may have gone under the radar.

    Try Sample Modeling's The Sax Brothers, best sax library I've ever heard or used. The only problem is, you'd need a continuous foot or wind controller to use it. I don't have either one, so I have to get around it by opening up the expression/volume control all the way in the Kontakt GUI, then drawing in the changes on the MIDI track by hand afterwards (motivation to buy an expression pedal).
