The Atelier Series Sasaki Trumpet is an amazing library featuring legato trumpet and flugelhorn performances by session musician and educator Mikio (Miki) Sasaki. Recorded at Orb Studios in Austin, Texas, the goal was to craft a lively, responsive instrument full of energy and utility. We recorded all material in a dry studio, allowing you to customize the sound before adding your favorite reverb. Miki performed with natural, progressive vibrato suitable for various energetic contexts. The legato was recorded in an 'impulsive' way to capture relevant transitions for energetic lines. We've provided 'Natural' and 'Tuned' patch variations to let composers keep the natural tuning. There's also a beautifully emotive flugelhorn with a different legato style and vibrato for emotional and cinematic moments. Features include legato trumpet and flugelhorn, three mutes, dry recording for mixing flexibility, adjustable reverb, 48khz/24bit recording, and 3.1 GB compressed NCW format. Patches are Workhorse, Emotional Flugel, Cup Mute, Harmon No Stem, Harmon Stem In, and Playable Runs. System requirements are Native Instruments Kontakt Full 5.8.1 and above, MacOS 10.11 El Capitan and above, Windows 7 and above.
