New trumpets for Concert & Marchingband

[germancomponist]

Hi friends,

I was often asked how I do the sound on my brasscompositions. One thing is that I often edit the Kontakt instruments to sound best to my compositions.... . :)

To get a cool staccato trumpet sound I built a "round robin" patch with 4 different samples per note. This kills very fine the machine-gun effect!

Also I built a "Big-Trumpet" where a compressor and an early reflection reverb is included. And another one where also is added a convo-reverb. They work in Kontakt Sampler2 and in Kontakt Player2.

Listen to a short demo here: http://www.box.net/shared/oewnwkwg8c (http://www.box.net/shared/oewnwkwg8c)


If you like it you can download here: http://www.box.net/shared/lwduajls0g (http://www.box.net/shared/lwduajls0g)


After downloading just unzip and copy and paste the instrumentfiles into the folder where your other trumpets are listed.

Please never forget to use the hold-pedal to enable or dissable the legato-mode!

I hope you enjoy!

Looks good, thank you!

Thanks, Gunther! I'm a fan of your wonderful brass renderings!

round robin is a wonderful thing, I wonder why round robin is not part of all instruments in these libraries.

This is great what you have done Gunther.

Thanks Hannes, Danny and Dan!

Yeah, it makes fun to me and I will soon post more instruments, if I am allowed to do. ;)

Thanks again,

Strange thing. Nickie sent me a file with .nki and now this one, also .nki
Both work as instruments. But (in short) you must know the format of that type of file. How about this?

Raymond,

nki-files are the file format from Native-Instruments (Native-Instruments-Kontakt-Instrument), not more or less. Just download it and unzip.

After that, copy this nki`s into the folder where you CoMB Library/instruments are saved.

For example: C/Programs/Concert&MarchingBand/Instruments/brass/trumpets

Then open your Kontakt Sampler or Kontakt Player and there at the browser you can see my instruments. Just load them and experiment... :)

Tell me, if all worked or not!

Best,

Gunther

Gunther,

Thanks for posting this. I always try to encourage users to experiment and share their successes with others. Feel free to post any other ideas you find useful.

This sounds great. But I don't have CoMB yet!

Ron,

you never go wrong if you buy this great library! ;)

Very cool, Tom, thanks!

In the 80`s I worked as a librarybuilder for the Casio synthesizers, and it always gave me much fun to do this.... . The Casio 8 Point envelopes were very great...! ;)

To all the others I want to add: normally (normaly?) it is forbidden to do this, edit samples from a developer and post them anywhere!

So, Tom, I will start to built some soloinstruments from CoMB, GPO and JABB from time to time. :)

Kontakt 3 is the most important for me, but as I know the most people are using Kontakt 2 Sampler/Player.

Ok, Gunther. I never won't make such a file. I just let others do this. Didn't try it yet, something came along and needed my attention. But it sounded great.

Thanks,

Most interesting, Gunny, thank you for this!

It's set me to thinking. It'd be cumbersome to
do; but I think I could probably do something
rather similar in notation with some tinkering...

Gunther:

Very interesting use of sample files. I didn't know
this could be done. Thank you for posting this
information.

David,

if you do this in Kontakt Sampler, you have to do it only once and then can use your new own built instruments in any new recordings. So that is a great thing to save production time... .;)

Best,

Gunther

Bump, for all CoMB users who didn`t read this... .:)
