Here's a composition for sax, bass, and drums. Please give it a listen and let me know your take on it.

 I LOVED that.  Did you program all of the instruments.  Please tell me you are a drummer, because if not...  Which VIs did you use - all VSL?

[JKOL]

I agree with aplanchard. The drums sounded especially good.

[Marko]

Thanks aplanchard. Thanks  JKOL.

  Vi instruments were used here exclusively. I used a tenor sax matrix that I constructed, the upright bass, and for the drums I used a GM matrix, a separate matrix for ride cymbals, another for snare and tom toms, and another matrix for high hat articulations.

I probably worked on the drums more than the sax and bass. The hardest part is getting the ride cymbals to sound right, something with which I'm still not satisfied.
