Description

The Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass EXtended Library is a massive virtual instrument collection for Kontakt and Kontakt Player that sets a new standard for realistic and expressive orchestral brass. Built with over 94,000 meticulously recorded samples and a total content size of 32GB, this library is the culmination of decades of sampling expertise. It features a wide range of individual instruments—including trumpets, trombones, French horns, F-tuba, sousaphone, and euphonium—as well as six different ensemble patches for a full, cinematic sound.

The library’s powerful features are driven by custom Kontakt scripting and include a “Note-Head Designer” for shaping attacks, simulated mute controls for five different mute types, and intelligent true legato for seamless transitions between notes. Its phase-aligned samples ensure perfect dynamic crossfades, while a rich variety of articulations—including everything from flutters and growls to falls and rips—provides unparalleled realism and expressive control. This is a go-to library for composers who demand the highest level of detail and authenticity in their brass arrangements.
