While Adventure Brass suits bold lines in traditional settings, Trailer Brass is crafted for modern, large - scale contexts. We recorded three distinct groups: a ten - horn ensemble, a ten - trombone ensemble, and The Horde, a three - cimbasso/three - tuba ensemble processed for maximum richness. To achieve the wide, brass - wall sound, we placed the players evenly across a huge concert hall's stage and aimed for maximum volume, which was quite a challenge as the trombones even broke a microphone. We've also included a variety of sound design patches using the brass recordings, like impacts, pads, BRAAAMs, synth basses, and rhythmic drones. We've limited controls for quick operation. The Adventure and Majestic patches let you create believable brass lines with just keys and the modwheel. The library has five GUIs to show what each patch can do. Included are horns (10), trombones (10), tuba/cimbassi (3/3), Adventure, Majestic, Staccato & Sustains patches, long/short Marcatos in The Horde patches, two processed versions of The Horde patches, cluster effects for trombones, and 11 sound design patches from brass recordings. Features include being a companion to Trailer Strings, recorded in a large concert hall, sections recorded separately in centered/wide - seating, true FFF sampling, Morph Stacking for natural note lengths, adjustable Humanization control, a To Silence feature, and three microphone positions (Close, Room, Mixed). It requires the full retail version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or higher, not the free Kontakt Player. Recorded in 48khz / 24bit, it's 2.4 GB in compressed NCW format and you'll receive a watermarked product via Continuata Connect downloader.
Using this Trailer Brass library is a breeze. First, make sure you have the full retail version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or higher installed on your device as the free Kontakt Player won't work. Once installed, you can start exploring the different patches. For creating brass lines, the Adventure and Majestic patches are great. Just use your keys and the modwheel on your keyboard to get believable sounds. When it comes to sound design, check out the 11 patches sourced from the brass recordings. You can mix and match them to create unique effects. As for the different microphone positions - Close, Room, and Mixed - play around with them to find the sound you like best. The adjustable Humanization control can add a more natural feel to your music. And if you need a 'niente' dynamic, use the To Silence feature. Remember, since it's a 2.4 GB compressed NCW format file, you'll need enough storage space on your device. Also, you'll receive a watermarked product through the Continuata Connect downloader, so follow the instructions carefully during the download process. Keep your software updated to ensure the best performance and to avoid any potential issues.
