GREETINGS

 

The Concert Brass II library is designed for ultimate musical expression, playability and flexibility. Our biggest objective when putting this collection together was to give you something that sounds good RIGHT NOW, out-of-the-box without wasting a lot of time tweaking, and to give you the fastest workflow possible. You will not find a better sounding, more playable and easy to use brass library.

This library was recorded in Hollywood, California, and done so quite "dry" so you don't have to worry about having too much ambience in the samples.

With Concert Brass II, you're not limited in the size of the section. You get 4 different sizes ranging from solos, to a huge symphonic section. And of course, you can easily blend them to get your own personal sound.

Concert Brass II* is a suite of four brass sections or divisions handled by the sophisticated TVEC 3 programming. It is based on a total of 4 divisions of a symphonic section of Brass. We have broken this symphonic brass section into 4 parts.

1) The Whole divisions. A full symphonic sized brass orchestra.

2) The Half divisions. Half of the Symphonic brass orchestra.

3) The Quarter divisions. Roughly one fourth of the symphonic orchestra - 2 players or less per note.

4) And the Solo divisions.

Each section or "Division" was recorded 44.1K, 24 bit in a very dry setting. The dry room was chosen so that this library would sound great with the vast array of great reverbs available today. Additionally, this was necessary for it to blend with other popular libraries.

The All-In-One Instrument
Ok, it's great to be able to have different combinations in one's arsenal. But being able to access almost anything in a SINGLE INSTRUMENT PATCH is something quite remarkable. One of the benefits of having everything in one instrument is that integrated features for the instrument apply themselves globally to everything contained within. Therefore, you don't have to make changes to a bunch of different instruments across a bunch of MIDI channels. For example, you can instantly change the attack (or any other offered feature) of all violin sections with one move.

Under the Hood
Without going into detail here, Concert Brass II contains so many features that you should be able to create any type of feel or playing style you want. And since there are so many different valid ways that people like to create, we made sure to address most of these playing/arranging styles. We don't force you to do things our way. We want you to be able to do things your way.
