Musical Sampling Classic Brass v1.3.0 KONTAKT

Classic Brass is our concert hall iteration of a workhorse brass library.

Sharing the same playability philosophy as our existing brass releases, Classic
Brass elevates every aspect of the sampling process. Recorded in a
large acoustic space (Besední dům in Brno, CZ), it pushes the upper
dynamic range while taking contextual sampling techniques to their
limits within a true concert hall environment.

Caveats
High Voice Count: This library is a polyphony beast. Due to the nature of the programming, dynamic layers, and mic positions, using multiple mics while playing fast triads can easily exceed 1000+ voices – especially in the trumpets, which feature five dynamic layers.

The Mix mic position is a carefully balanced blend of all recorded microphones, designed to handle the vast majority of composing situations while keeping polyphony more manageable.

For reference, the Rise of the Crowned demo track was produced on a seven-year-old PC without issue. Three mics for trumpets, Mix mic for the horns, bones and tuba.

Artifacts: Nearly everything in this library was contextually sampled and pushed to the very edge of what remains musically usable. As a result, a small amount of artifacting may be present from the post-production process required to shape these performances into a playable instrument.

These artifacts are primarily audible in the contextual staccatos, where a faint, ghost-like trail may follow the natural reverb tail.

Does this affect musical use in context? Not at all.
This library was never intended to be clinical – and the tradeoff required to capture energetic, characterful performances was considered well worth it.

Every articulation – with the exception of latch key staccatos and staccatissimos – was captured inside thoughtfully curated phrases, aiming to preserve the musical energy and subtle chaos a live performance imparts to each note.

Eminently playable, rich with personality, spanning a wide dynamic range, and leaving ample room for the sound to breathe – all meticulously programmed to feel natural under the fingers.

This is Classic Brass.
