    Ok , I did my homework and found out what kind of Sax he plays :-) Tenor and a curved soprano sax .

    My next question , is there any difference in tone between Curved and Straight Soprano ?

    And as I understand , Samplemodeling is working on sampling the soprano sax . Curved or Straight ?

    Hello,

    If i am not wrong i believe that the shape of the pipe does not modify the sound (for a same diameter)

    Valouz , thank you for your answer .

    I ask because I read on wikipedia "There is some debate over the effect of the straight and curved neck, with some players believing that a curved neck on a soprano gives it a warmer, less nasal tone."
