Fantastic Fanfares

Jazzy blasts of brass, cinematic fanfares that fill the big screen or experimental excursions fit for trailers and progressive modern music: the inherent versatility of brass ensembles is tremendous and now it got even more flexible. This meticulously crafted collection not only allows you to shape the sound of the ensembles, but also their performance accuracy. Need natural, dry brass tones in a tight, controlled space? No problem. Epic braaams drenched in reverb? Just a click away. Authentic imperfections within the ensemble? Just move the Humanize fader. From an unpleasant school band performance in the locker room to a well-rehearsed pro ensemble on stage, this bold and brilliant library unlocks a new dimension of brass possibilities.

  • While every note was played by a well-rehearsed ensemble of four players, each instrument was recorded with a dedicated microphone. As a result, you may access each instrument individually in order to change sound characteristics, volume, articulation, and performance accuracy intuitively in real-time while playing an ensemble preset. Speaking of performance accuracy: The secret ingredient that makes a brass ensemble sound really authentic is the mixture of human interactions and slight imperfections of a live performance. When playing in an ensemble, musicians listen to each other and continually adapt, matching timbre, volume, intensity, and intonation. Our sophisticated “Dimension” recording technique embraces these interactions while isolating the individual instruments for utmost control. Various Humanize Presets let you adjust the performance accuracy of the four ensemble players according to your musical demands. The sonic results are supremely authentic and simply breathtaking!
