Chris Hein 轻量版 – Orchestral Brass
Orchestral Brass Compact 是独特库 Chris Hein – Orchestra Brass Complete 的精简版。它提供相同数量的乐器：三个小号、三个长号和三个法国圆号，被记录为九个单独的乐器和三个合奏。
由于其卓越且高度通用的音质，Orchestral Brass Compact 是任何管弦乐库的完美补充，特别是对于铜管乐器扮演重要角色的作品；无论是古典乐曲、史诗电影配乐还是管弦乐流行音乐。
对于精简版，我们汇总了完整版中最重要和最常见的表达方式和功能。同时，这个黄铜库无疑满足了对音质、表现力和适用性的最高期望。该库的乐器使用精心准备的多重采样，并具有详细的相位对齐，用于动态层的相位校正混合和淡入淡出。多达八个动态层保证逼真的声音效果。
该库不可否认的亮点包括真正的连奏、每个音符的可变起音、创新的演奏辅助，如热键、音符头和通过 TouchOSC 对所有功能的 MIDI 远程控制。
Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact 依靠 Native Instruments 强大的采样引擎 Kontakt Player 及其定制的用户界面和广泛的脚本来满足这些乐器的特定要求。
管弦乐铜管音色完美定制
精选的 Neumann 麦克风等高品质设备和音乐家的重要表演都推动了声音美学。与屡获殊荣的 Chris Hein – Horns 不同，该库利用了著名的 WDR 交响乐团。
对于这个图书馆，干式近距离麦克风是一个有意的决定。所有乐器都单独记录，避免任何串扰。尽管 CH Orchestral Brass Compact 包含了管弦乐队不可避免的互动。因此，参赛乐手采用耳机监听，相得益彰。
由于采样引擎的双卷积混响和 Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact 有意干的声音，您可以轻松地使乐器适应各种情况。 Kontakt 播放器允许在立体声全景中自由放置乐器。此外，用于语料库声音（身体）和环境（房间）的单独卷积引擎允许创建任何空间环境，从亲密关系到大型管弦乐大厅。这使得 CH Orchestral Brass Compact 与许多竞争对手及其固定的空间特征明显不同。它使这个库有很大的变化，此外，几乎可以与任何其他可用的库相结合。
完美的动态过渡得益于相位对齐
在六个月的研究期间，所有样本都完全同步。因此，这些乐器可提供完美、无缝的动态层过渡，而不会产生声音衰减。
短音符和长音符的独特组合
长音符和短音符的组合是样本库中的一个主要问题，通常无法提供真实的声音结果。对于真正的乐器，音符长度通常会影响起音行为以及音符结尾。 Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact 通过其“Note Head Designer”解决了这些问题。对于每个延音，您都可以通过控制器调出短的、经过调整的样本变化，即所谓的短音。这些短裤不仅提供了相应的正确起音行为，而且还提供了与音符长度完美匹配的音符结尾。
这些用户定义的短音符变奏选择可在多达八个动态层中使用，并且可以与相应的持续阶段相结合，从而产生使用基于随机循环的选择无法实现的惊人、逼真的结果。当然，这些短裤也可作为单独的关节使用。
真正的连奏
Chris Hein 的乐器 – Orchestral Brass Compact 提供真正的连奏。相应的深入录音和编辑会产生具有完美音符过渡的意外逼真的声音。同时，您可以通过额外的人工插入连奏来扩展这些逼真的关节。
The light Version of Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass
Orchestral Brass Compact is the light-version of the unique library Chris Hein – Orchestra Brass Complete. It offers the same number of instruments: three trumpets, three trombones and three french horns, being recorded as nine individual instruments and three ensembles.
Because of its exceptional and highly versatile sound quality Orchestral Brass Compact is a perfect addition to any orchestral library, especially for productions with brass instruments playing a prominent role; be it in classical compositions, epic film-scores or orchestral pop music.
For the compact edition, we assembled the most important and common articulations and functions of the complete edition. At the same time, this brass-library doubtlessly meets the highest expectations of sound quality, expression and applicability. The library’s instruments use meticulously, carefully prepared multisamples with detailed phase-alignment for phase-correct blends and crossfades of dynamic layers. Up to eight dynamic layers guarantee realistically sounding results.
Among the undeniable highlights of the library are true legato, variable attacks per note, innovative play-aids such as hot keys, note heads and MIDI remote controllability of all functions via TouchOSC.
Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact relies on Native Instruments’ powerful sample-engine Kontakt Player with its costum-tailored user-interface and extensive scripting to live up to the specific requirements of these instruments.
Orchestral brass sounds tailored to perfection
Both the high quality gear such as selected Neumann microphones and the musician’s significant performaces drive the sound aesthetics. Unlike the award-winning Chris Hein – Horns, this library takes advantage of the renowned WDR Symphonic Orchestra.
For this library, dry close mic’ing was an intentional decision. All instruments were recorded individually avoiding any crosstalk. Despite that CH Orchestral Brass Compact incorporated the inevitable interaction of an orchestra. Therefore, the participating musicians used headphone monitoring, to complement each other.
Due to the sample-engine’s dual convolution reverbs and the intentionally dry sound of Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact, you can easily adapt the instruments to various situations. The Kontakt Player permits free instrument-placement in the stereo panorama. In addition, separate convolution engines for both the corpus-sound (body) and the ambience (room) allow creating any spatial environment, ranging from close intimacy to large orchestral halls. This makes CH Orchestral Brass Compact significantly different to many competitors and their fixed spatial characteristics. It makes this library greatly variable and, additionally, combinable with almost any other library available.
Perfect dynamic transitions thanks to phase alignment
Over a research-period of six months, all samples were fully aligned in phase. Accordingly, the instruments offer perfect, seamless transitions of dynamic layers without sonic degradation.
Unique combination of short and long notes
The combination of long and short notes is a major problem in sample-libraries that often fails to deliver authentically sounding results. With real musical instruments, the note length often influences the attack behavior as well as the note end. Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact addresses these aspects by its „Note Head Designer“. For every sustain, you can call up short, adjusted sample variations, so called shorts, via the controllers. These shorts not only offer the corresponding correct attack-behavior but also a note-end that perfectly matches the note length.
These user-defined selections of short-note-variations are available in up to eight dynamic layers each and can be combined with the corresponding sustained phases, leading to astonishing, realistic results that cannot be achieved using random round-robin based selections. Of course, these shorts are also available as individual articulations.
True Legato
The instruments of Chris Hein – Orchestral Brass Compact offer true legato. The corresponding in-depth recordings and edits result in unexpectedly realistic sounds with perfect note-transitions. At the same time you can expand these realistic articulations by additional artificial inserted legatos.
