Totally different sounds. As a saxophone major in college, I suffered through years of classical lessons. The tone and how you play as very different than jazz saxophone.

Umm, am I the only one to whom it has occurred that at the very least, alto and tenor sax are ORCHESTRAL INSTRUMENTS, and are played with a sound the is quite different from a jazz sound? As are the saxes in wind ensembles. Thinking that a single set of sax samples will serve all possible uses just isn't realistic. There's no question but that they belonged in the orchestral set of samples. Somebody dropped the ball, or wasn't thinking in real world terms.
