英文简介:
This is a light version of the Cinematic Studio Brass library. The library features a brass section as a combination of solo and ensemble instruments. The instruments are divided as solo trumpet, two trumpets, solo french horn, four french horns, solo trombone, two trombones, bass trombone and tuba. The instruments sound regal and epic, and the dynamics range from a warm mellow tone, to a loud, epic tone. The amount of articulations is good and the room ambience of the library is balanced and controllable. Like the other counterparts from this series, the legato is really smooth and expressive. The engine provides two speeds for a variety of transitions. Though it has a learning curve, the results are great. Also the libraries from this series blend well together because they were recorded in the same room. The library is quite versatile and can work in both softer and epic contexts. Overall, a great library with a good list of features and great legatos!
Following changes were made to the library:
1. The "Mix" and "Room" mic sample groups were removed. The default Mix isn't that great and the Room mic position doesn't add too much value to the library, and can be easily replaced by a reverb. The included "Close" and "Main" mic positions allow for a great deal of flexibility while preserving the sound of the hall the brass was recorded in as well.
2. The samples in the original release were in 24-bit 48kHz format. The samples were converted to 16-bit 48kHz and repacked into NKX containers. A null test results in a peak of -85dB, which won't be audible at all. Also, after quite some testing, no issues were found with noise floor build-up when playing lots of notes. The conversion process takes the size down to 7.07GB from the original 33.9GB, which is a 79% reduction!
However, one of the unfortunate results of the changes is that the Ensemble patch is no longer functional, and there are no real workarounds to solve this issue.
NOTE: Kontakt v5.8.0 or higher is required. This library does not work with legit full version of Kontakt and k'd Kontakt is necessary to use this library.
Introducing Cinematic Studio Brass
Cinematic Studio Brass brings a powerful Hollywood-style brass section to your fingertips and is the newest addition to our Cinematic Studio Series. We spent nearly 300 hours recording in a world-class scoring stage, using a unique combination of microphones to capture the individual character and charm of each instrument. The result is a stunning package of playable, realistic brass instruments; CSB stands out from the crowd either on its own, or as a perfect complement to Cinematic Studio Strings.
Intuitive Scripting, Easy to Use GUI
The GUI is streamlined and efficient, with its minimal number of patches making it quick to learn and easy to use. The layout is functionally the same as for Cinematic Studio Strings, so of course it’s easy to work with on its own, or equally easy when using both libraries together. The GUI features easily assignable keyswitches and MIDI CCs, and a full mixer with output routing options plus reverb. To save memory, articulations can be loaded in or out of RAM with a couple of clicks.
Detailed Soloists, Powerful Sections
Cinematic Studio Brass is a highly versatile library, capable of bringing you the sweet sounds of a gentle melody, or packing a real punch to bring all the drama and impact of a real Hollywood brass section to your music. We recorded the full dynamic range across every instrument, so when you play hard, you’ll hear hard – thanks to our talented players giving their all in every session. There’s nothing like hearing a brass ensemble really bring a room to life, and that’s exactly the sensation we’ve captured here.
Unrivaled Realism and Consistency
We’ve broken new ground here with our smooth and powerful legato and marcato articulations. Long-form legato was captured across the entire dynamic range – the result of countless hours of recordings and retakes. You’ll be swept away by the level of realism we’ve achieved. In addition the legato scripting has been upgraded with further under-the-hood functionality, so sculpting new melodic phrases is easier than ever. As always, we’ve maintained the highest possible level of consistency across all instruments to give them all a similar feel on the keyboard.
Fully Mixed - Load and Play
We used a variety of beautiful ribbon and condenser microphones to record Cinematic Studio Brass at three mic distances, Close, Main and Room, which you can combine to create your own mix inside Kontakt or via the output-routing option. Alternatively, you can use our ready-to-go mix position that contains all three mics in a stereo mix if you want a great sound with fewer resources. The Full Ensemble patches optimise workflow and are perfect for sketching or filling out a track.
Compatible with Free KONTAKT Player
The Cinematic Studio Brass sample library is fully compatible with both full Kontakt and with the free Kontakt Player; CSB will work as a standalone product with no need to purchase additional software. Kontakt Player is available as a separate download from Native Instruments and can be downloaded free of charge by clicking here. CSB is also designed for use with the new exciting range of NKS Keyboards. Information on adding your new library to Kontakt can be found here.

Apologies for the non-functional Ensemble patch. I'll try to find a workaround, and if I do, I'll surely post the updated patches!
This is a great library and really good for a variety of compositions. Some of the best legatos out there. Though not very playable, it's great for finer tweaking!
