I am a recorder enthusiast and have written many pieces for it. I find that while the soprano/sopranino. tenor, and bass/great bass recorder sounds are excellent, they are incompatible in sound quality with the alto recorder voice, especially in its lowest register. Some recorders produce a reedy sound (indeed a small minority of players prefer that sound). The rest of us prefer a clear tone (e.g., listen to the Garritan tenor recorder voice). The alto recorder voice supplied by Garritan is very reedy and stands out markedly in ensemble arrangements in an unaesthetic manner. I usually have to resort to making arrangements for other instruments when burning CDs. I would like to respectfully request that it be resampled using a clearer instrument. Thank you for your consideration.
I run Windows 10 and have Finale 25.4, although the problem has existed for years over many versions.
