A) You can get all the AA sheet music you need at gyakusheets.net
B) If you tell me which songs you want, I can put the music onto Sibelius for you, and then change into E flat for the saxophone. It's a great coincidence - my friend and I also play a lot of Ace Attorney music on piano and alto sax, so we may already have the music you want =D

Cool! Gyakusheets seems to be down but I wanted to play Godot's theme, Ema's theme, and Objection! (PW1)

So if you had any of these even if it's only one, it would be appreciated.

Alto saxophones are in the key of E flat, which means playing a C on the alto sounds like an E flat in concert pitch. Just transpose all the notes on the sheet music 3 half steps lower, and you can play the music how it's supposed to sound like.

You need to transpose only if you want to play along with someone else. If you're playing by yourself (or other Eb instruments) then you don't need to transpose, and it'll sound fine.

(btw, the main melody for Objection! 2001 is just root-five-octave over and over again. Eventually there is another note, tho, and it's the tenth)
