SONiVOX recorded the Orchestral Companion Brass in the legendary Futura Productions studios in Massachusetts. Members of the Boston Pops and/or Boston Ballet Orchestras played all performances, with the same premium instruments they use for their actual concert galas and events. A combination of spot and ambient mic ing capture every instrumental nuance, while preserving the refined acoustics and intimacy of the performance space itself.
State-of-the-Art Sampling Sessions
Under the expert guidance of SONiVOX musical sound connoisseur Jennifer Hruska, each sample session was faithfully recorded by Emmy award-winning engineers Antonio Oliart and RIAA award-winning engineer John Bono. The players were positioned using orchestrally correct seating, and measures were even taken to compensate for the sound-absorption of any players absent on that particular day. In order to retain a realistic, organic feel, SONiVOX used minimal post-recording processing. They used two B&K 4011 microphones to preserve the highly desired front-of-hall sound, while superior-grade spot mics accurately captured each instrument s individual detail. Benchmark-caliber preamps fed Troisi Octal A/D convertors to complete an uncorrupted signal chain.
Playable Programs
Each patch and preset is easily playable by virtually every level of performer. All instruments are presented in multi-velocity layers, with natural swells available via the modulation wheel. MIDI key switching provides on-the-fly articulation for select patches. The internal sound engine provides additional modulation (LFO) sources, dynamic envelope control, and studio-grade reverb/effects to allow creative customization of the onboard sounds.
Plug-In Proficiency
In addition, Orchestral Companion Brass runs as a fully compatible plug-in with any VST (32- or 64-bit), AU (64 bit) , or AAX (32- or 64-bit for Pro Tools 10.3) compatible or later Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software.
