Or is he planning on including the saxophones in GPO-II or something?
I'm still awaiting word on the release of the Garritan General Midi
soundset, something which has been listed on the Finale web-site but
mentioned very little elsewhere. That will include saxes and strings,
as well as all the basic General Midi sounds, but of course won't have
nearly the depth of nuances that GPO has.
I don't know when it's coming, but the last time I saw Gary, he
mentioned that this was in the works and implied that it was an
important addition to his business.

With his high standards for sample quality, I'm waiting, waiting,
waiting for it because I know it'll be great -- in all my grousing about
GPO not including saxes, I have never once complained about the quality
of the samples.
