Vol. 1 (Vol. 1.5) Solo Instruments
Three-and-a-half years in the making, Chris Hein Horns Vol. 1 (Volume 1.5) Solo Instruments is a major update to the popular original Chris Hein Horns solo instrument library. This version is based on the NI KONTAKT Player 2 and has been completely reprogrammed with loads of new functions thanks to KONTAKT's scripting features. The sound library contains four solo instruments ” Alto-Sax, Tenor-Sax, Trumpet, and Trombone, as well as a bonus Trumpet-Section. The nuances of each of these virtual instruments is unlike anything you've heard before.

Vol. 2 Section Horns
The Chris Hein Horns Vol. 2 Section Horns library contains nearly 2000 samples, 20 articulations and up to 8 velocities of 17 horn instruments to help you realize nearly any instrumentation of a brass section, jazz, pop, or Big Band production. It includes 3 alto saxes, 3 tenor saxes, 2 baritone saxes, 4 trumpets, 4 tenor trombones, 2 bass trombones, as well as many read-to-use section programs.

This Best Service sample collection is equipped with the right size of expressiveness to realize living brass sections for a small funk instrumentation as well as a more Big Bands sound. Thanks to clever programming, the solo instruments can easily be combined to small or large sections via Section Mode. Different, ready-to-use section instruments are also included. The easy user interface is mainly focused on best playability. Different legato and play mode features allow very realistic note transitions, while other outstanding functions like key-vibrato, hotkeys, and the revolutionary new key-switch concept are essential for live performance. All the instruments were played by famous Big Band musicians in single sessions but with the other instruments in mind, so the result is perfect harmony when you create sections and gives producers maximum flexibility.
