A universal brass ensemble library with six sections from trumpets to tubas, true legato and Easy-Lead playing, recorded at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley.

Hyperion Brass Elements was recorded up close in the historic Studio A at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, California, and has a forward, robust sound with a wide dynamic range. Ten combo ensemble presets plus master and true legato presets for 6 trumpets, 4 tenor trombones, 4 French horns, 3 euphoniums, 3 bass trombones and 3 tubas provide vibrato and non-vibrato sustains in three dynamics, loose and tight staccatos and staccatissimos, double and triple tonguing, and flutter tongue. The true legato system adapts its speed to the way you play when you want it to, and the Easy-Lead feature takes you from tight staccatos to dynamic sustains without keyswitching. Crescendos, decrescendos, sforzandos and swells with time-stretching and tempo sync, plus positioning of each section within dozens of rooms, halls, chambers and effect environments, round off the package.
