MAJESTIC CINEMATIC ORCHESTRAL BRASS FOR SOUNDBOX
Introducing Volume 3 of the Transfigured Orchestra series for Soundbox
Brass has always carried the weight of drama – at its quietest, it whispers of something approaching; at its loudest, it announces the inevitable. Transfigured Orchestra 3: Cinema Brass delivers both.
Whether you're building epic, cinematic textures or something quieter and more atmospheric, these dark, foreboding textures and suspenseful, tension-laden tones bring presence, weight and atmosphere to music that demands to be felt.
Brass Takes The Lead
Where Transfigured Orchestra Volumes 1 and 2 featured brass as a supporting colour within a wider ensemble, Volume 3 puts it firmly centre stage.
Flugelhorn, solo French horn, trumpets and trombones step into the spotlight across 25 carefully crafted presets – from traditional, instantly recognisable orchestral sounds through to abstract, ambient and sound design territory.
The Cinema Brass Sounds
In Vol 2: Hybrid Gestures, the Flugelhorn appeared as long, swelling crescendos and decrescendos. This time we've taken a more playable approach, capturing the warm, rounded character that makes this such an evocative voice.
Alongside it you'll find flutter-tongue articulations that bring life and movement to otherwise static arrangements, a tender Solo French Horn patch with real intimacy and breath – perfect for sparse, ambient music, and a majestic trombone ensemble at full forte for real weight and presence.
And For Something More Unusual...
In typical Sonora Cinematic style, Cinema Brass also features something a little more unique with a collection of vintage sampler patches, created by re-sampling our deep-sampled brass through digital hardware that creates accurate models of vintage samplers and other effect processors.
The result is a series of presets with a gritty, lo-fi character, full of digital artefacts and vintage charm which opens up some surprising creative possibilities.
Finally, rounding out the library, you'll also find a selection of organic cinematic sound design patches that excel as deep, cinematic basses for maximum impact.
