Some days ago I said that basslines can be used to make sax parts and [here](https://soundcloud.com/user-658469515/simon-scaler) is a simple sample

the EZbass MIDI was edited a bit, removing mute notes and copy-pasting some of the interesting riffs found

Chords were built in Scaler 2 [Simon Scaler.xml](https://forum.scalermusic.com/uploads/short-url/sPS0B793ibb60PNfTUQLXcFpHf6.xml) (9.6 KB)  
The guitar is AAS Strum-GS 2, in Guitar mode and with a MIDI Polysher used to increase octaves  
The sax is a free plugin

The song is called **Simon Scaler** because the starting guitar reminded me a Simon & Garfunkel tune 😄

Guitar MIDI (use the Guitar mode if you like test it) [Strum GS-2 2.mid](https://forum.scalermusic.com/uploads/short-url/4HsrD6amgTY2MhHnsUril9maPNh.mid) (19.0 KB)

Thanks Tim

In Italy, we say: la necessità aguzza l’ingegno  
(necessity is the mother of invention)

I don’t have the money to buy a SWAM plugin, nor the skills to use it  
😄
