Hello Dikki
You have misread my post, the tongue effect is monophonic, and the sax sound is polyphonic, therefore just like in a Hammond B3 the tongue effect will not retrigger until all notes are released, consequently you can play with natural phrasing just like you can with SA voices. (This is the difference between cheap sample discs and more professional discs, the cheaper discs do not have all the effects sampled)
Hope this helps

Bill
