An immense collection of widely different bass instruments all on one disk; a combination of Dan Dean Bass Collections #1 & #2 plus more instruments not found on either previous collection.
Dan Dean Solo Brass/Lite is a light version of the DDSB, offering a lower cost alternative to the full set. This single CD library is comprised of Solo Bass Trombone, Solo Trombone, Solo Trumpet, Solo Tuba, and Solo French Horn. The same beautiful stereo samples from the full Giga versions are used in this version.
This trend-setting library features chromatically/multi-sampled Bassoon, Contrabassoon, Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Flute, Piccolo, Alto Flute, Bass Flute, Oboe and English Horn. Each and every note of each of the instruments has been chromatically sampled in up to 6 layers of dynamics (pp through ff) for realistic and accurate performances. As well, each of the instruments has capabilities for a variety of articulations.
Solo Violin, Solo Viola and Solo Cello were recorded in stereo in various articulations (arco/vibrato, pizzicato, half-step and whole-step trills, spiccato and tremelo). Each note of each instrument was recorded in each articulation. There is no pitch-shifting or unnatural transposition artifacts commonly found in other libraries. Also, since each and every note of the instruments appears unaltered by pitch shifting, the bow and instrument body resonances as well as the overtones characteristically generated, are true throughout the entire range of all of the instruments. This creates a smoother, more "organic" sounding bank with even note-to-note transitions.
