No saxes in the library, these are orchestral samples. They sound 
fabulous out of the box, but they're not for horn section. Completely 
different sound - much purer. Quantum Leap Brass and the Roland 
library are the best I know of for horn section - they have all the 
doits, falls, quick dynamics, and generally hard, short attacks.

I don't own Sam Horns, by the way, but I have played them and am very 
impressed.
