    Yeah I totally agree, I recommend them all the time, they sound amazing if you want the most realistic sounding brass/solo instruments that aren't "orchestral" in sound. Thanks for watching!

    Thanks for the review. Been looking at this for awhile (for Reason as that's what I use), but other than the BFA site been having a hard time finding much in the way of user feedback. So thanks for the overview.

    Thanks for the review Joe. Not being a Kontakt user, I'm insterested to know if there's any disadvantage at all in NOT running the full Kontakt, and only hosting this in the free version. Thanks!

    Great review St. Joe. The library in my opinion has its pluses and minuses. Overall I heard three great sounding patches during your review that I would use in some of my projects. The flute patches sound great and they have that jazzy vintage feel. The muted trumpet is my favorite and would work great for a lot of my smooth jazz pieces. Finally, the flugelhorn has potential with a bit of processing (perhaps adjusting the attack and reverb settings).

    will skip this one but looking forward to a vintage orchestra and or vintage electronic focusing on keys, mellotrons and synths of those eras.

  • @Macaholic
    @Macaholic 10 років тому +1

    Please don't change all the midi channels so that one note triggers all sounds. Don't reinforce a bad thing. You immediately limit yourself to creative possibilities and any flexibility. And if you want to add some harmony, you're shot. It's very easy to create a line using one sound and copy it to another track(s) of your horn section. Same results, better flexibility.
    Does this library have round-robin staccatos? Does it have legato patches?

    • @SoundsAndGear
      @SoundsAndGear  10 років тому

      Thanks for the comment, but not everyone works the way you speak, different ways of working, just depends on what you're trying to do. For me it was much quicker to change the midi channels to show the sound in the video. As for what's in the library it's more aimed at the section style of instruments, there are staccatos but I'm not sure if they are round robin or not, wasn't specifically mentioned in the product info.

    • @SoundsAndGear
      @SoundsAndGear  9 років тому

      This is more of a vintage/soulful vibe, CH definitely has a big band feel to it. You may also want to checkout broadway lites.

    • @Tytteboevsen
      @Tytteboevsen 9 років тому

      Thanks. broadway lites lookes really good. can you make the same articulations in CH? I am not sure articulations is the right word as english is my second language but i mean changes in the pitch and stuff like that.

    • @Tytteboevsen
      @Tytteboevsen 9 років тому

      SoundsAndGear.com and what about session horns from NI either the normal or the pro version. the broadway is a bit over budget.

    • @SoundsAndGear
      @SoundsAndGear  9 років тому

      Tytteboevsen I haven't used broadway lites myself but I know it sounds great. Session Horns is cool also, not really big band sound though. Probably CHH or Broadway lites is closer to that sound in my opinion.

    I hate demos or reviews where there's more talk than actually hearing the sounds. This one isn't bad but I thought for a product named Vintage Horns too much time was spent talking about a woodwind (the flute). Great that it's included but I wanted to hear more of the horn sounds, especially horn section sounds.

      Well, these types of instruments are mono by nature, you don't really play chords on sax, flute, etc.

    • @Cenikid
      @Cenikid 9 років тому +2

      SoundsAndGear.com I think I know what he means. Of course you can't play a chord on one sax or trumpet. However every single jazz (not just jazz; it's an example) song that has more than trumpet plays chords with the trumpets together. One plays the tonic, another plays the third etc.
