This groundbreaking orchestral collection is designed to bring your fantasy film, television, and game soundtracks to life. Crafted by audio visionaries Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, this extraordinary ensemble combines exceptional world instruments featured in the most iconic movies and games with contemporary octave-doubled orchestral sections that seamlessly integrate with the Hollywood Orchestra. All of this is presented with stunning stereo imaging mic placement and the cutting-edge features of EastWest's revolutionary Opus player.
When composing music for the next sweeping fantasy saga or medieval adventure, simply incorporating a handful of period solo instruments won't suffice. To achieve a truly cinematic sound, you need to bridge the gap between traditional orchestral and world instruments. With the Eastwest Hollywood Fantasy Brass, every instrument has been meticulously curated to earn its place in the mix, forming a completely new orchestra that places all the essential period instruments on one stage. Prepare to be captivated by a sound experience unlike any other.
Discover a realm where flugelhorns replace trumpets, and Wagner tubas and alpenhorns supplant French horns, resulting in a grandeur that contemporary orchestras can't quite emulate while still delivering the intensity and passion required by today's movies and games. Each of these essential instruments is captured in ensembles of three, offering a cinematic depth that surpasses what solo instruments can produce. As with Hollywood Fantasy Strings, the entire brass collection was recorded in the same renowned soundstage as our esteemed Hollywood Orchestra, ensuring a seamless blend between all the components.
Whether you seek powerful fanfares to herald far-off kingdoms, evocative melodies for heroes, villains, and mythical creatures, or a rich, velvety timbre to conjure the allure of ancient castles and sweeping landscapes—Hollywood Fantasy Brass has everything you need to elevate your compositions to new heights of excitement and wonder.
Every instrument is programmed with 3 moods, on a scale from most authentic to most cinematic: Classic, Soft, and Epic. You can rotate through these different qualities to suit your needs (the choice will typically be a no-brainer) and fill in the exact fantasy brass sound you hear in your head. The Classic MOOD delivers the signature sound of previous Hollywood Brass libraries, offering a softer sound that's ideal for slower, emotional passages and solo pieces. Turn it up to 11 with the Epic MOOD setting and unlock a more aggressive and punchy sound that could be the remedy for action-packed adventure scenes or high-speed chase scenes.
The collection contains over 40 instruments, featuring around 17GB of samples. It includes elements from six ensembles and two solo instruments, all geared towards creating incredible fantasy-inspired compositions. The instruments offer vast sustains, true legatos, repetitions, short notes of varying lengths, ornaments, crescendos, and trills that meet professional standards. You can also create Key-switch instruments with multiple articulations that can be switched seamlessly in real-time with blue-coloured keyswitch notes outside the instrument's key range. While not exhaustive, these Key-switch instruments are generally comprehensive in their articulation.
Bigger and better than ever, each instrument in the Fantasy Brass collection is performed through the new OPUS Engine. Designed to offer complete control over your instruments, the OPUS Engine is comprehensive but also fast and efficient. CPU-optimised, it allocates computer resources effectively for smooth performances. Capable of loading multiple stacked instruments, you can define octave and key ranges, trigger actions and much more all without overwhelming your CPU.
Customisable key switches can be created, letting you build a personal performance instrument, creating multi-articulation instruments with various options for on-the-fly changes. Additionally, you have full autonomy to adjust the level and pan of four distinct mic positions, including close, mid, main, and surround, giving you complete jurisdiction over the sonic dimension of your compositions. All while being wrapped in a high-resolution and fully scalable interface.
