Muse Woodwinds Reviews

In general, a great pack. I have issues with the saxophones, though. In many cases they are so realistic, that they make “beginner mistakes”. - For example, the middle D on soprano sax is severely out of tune in many dynamics. Realistic (unfortunately), but not something I really want to emulate in my MIDI-playback. - Similar for some of the lower notes, specifically on tenor and alto sax. They take a while to sound: they first hit an overtone and only then the low note. A beginner player may sound like this, but again, are we aiming to emulate a beginner saxophone player? - Finally, the alto sax has a tendency to overuse bends in louder dynamics (as I like to call it: full Kenny G-mode). In classical works this sounds totally inappropriate.

the files are 4,4 GB. Huge!

following what dmitrishostakovich said, the inclusion of many parts of the flute family is arguably way more exotic than clarinet family members, like alto clarinet/basset horn and contrabass clarinet. it feels natural to have those in the woodwinds group. otherwise, these woodwind sounds are magnificent, and for being free is genuinely a steal.

You know, this sound pack is really good and all, but with the bass and contrabass flute, which are really exotic woodwinds in my opinion, you should've added a contrabass clarinet to it. It would make a really good addition to my scores. Thank you! :)

Overall the sound is nice, but my staccato quavers are excessively tongued on alto sax and clarinet - almost slap-tongued, and they go a bit flat. On flute, they come out with this weird sort of breathy flourish. It’s a bit much.

It wouldn't download even after 10 times. It kept on saying there is an error

These sounds are waaay better than the default MS midi. However, I am missing my alto, greatbass, and contrabass clarinets, which is kinda sad (I'd still recommend it though)

Really amazing for free sounds

All the sounds that this plugin has to offer are utterly perfect. My only problem is that the music pack lacks the sound of a contrabass clarinet, as sound that I have been eagerly searching for.

This is such a great improvement from the standard sounds! Thank you so much for fixing the issue with Musesounds.

I've used it before and it's great, but for some reason it doesn't show up as an option in the mixer, even though I own it according to both Musehub and Chrome.

A good ensemble; the woodwinds alone will make you a lovely score - if you don't mind doing a lot of work (playing with the mixer, adding tons of unecessary notations…), because the woodwinds have zero personality by default, so give them one! And don't forget: it's free, so don't complain too hard...

just wish there was recorder

The fact that is is free still blows my mind. This can only become better with time... add a 2nd clarinet, oboe and so on when you can!

I just wanted to make sure the only good woodwind instrument sounded good.

It's definitely good, however oboe and bassoon volume are extremely different. I need to use the mixer constantly.

I really like Muse Woodwinds! The sound quality and range of instruments are impressive. However, when it comes to writing for concert band, jazz band, or contemporary music, this pack feels a bit limited. I would love to see orchestral saxophones added, along with both jazz and orchestral bass saxophones. Additionally, including jazz clarinet and flute would enhance the pack significantly. For concert band, instruments like Eb alto clarinet, contrabass clarinet, and the previously mentioned classical saxophones would be great additions, as well as the euphonium for Muse Brass. Another suggestion is to add the recorder; I believe Sarah Jefferey from TeamRecorder could assist with that. In conclusion, while this product is overall great, these additions could make it even better!

Get it fix

Somehow even with all the paid MuseSounds, this still has the widest instrument selection. It's the only MuseSounds library with saxophones, for example. This is a seriously impressive library, especially given the fact that it's free. I don't think there's a better library anywhere near this price.

Let's add more instruments like Bass Oboe, Contrabass Clarinet, and Section woodwinds for each instrument because for Concert band work we need the section sounds

The instruments sound excellent but I'd like basset horn and heckelphone

i'll want to you add more realistic recorder flutes in muse sounds and saxophone growl in staff text
