Retro Soul Horns

[billg]

I'm wanting to write and record some retro sould type of stuf and was wondering what kind of software would be best for horns. What i want to do is some retro rock/soul songs like thishttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ljKe9gSArI&fea ... tedthanks-

Bill,I've used First Call Horns and have enjoyed the sound a lot.I've just picked up Liquid Horn Section but haven't used it yet. It's more "riff" oriented than First Call Horns. With FCH you have to write the parts yourself, which isn't such a bad thing!Cheers!Mazz

thanks Mazz, I'm gonna go look into first call-

Horns or RE20...horns or RE20...

[billg]

ha, ha! mark, that's exactly what I was thinking when i saw the price on the first call horns!BTW- I just noticed i posted this in the wrong place, sorry 'bout dat!

Some lower priced options. I haven't used them, so I can't say how they would work. Some of them are licks, some are samples.http://www.sonomic.com/components/displ ... :brass:721(The last one is Greg Adams Big Band Brass on Big Fish website. I don't know if that link will work. Greg Adams was the original brass arranger for Tower of Power).

Bill,I've done a number of songs with software horns in them...even signed a few.Heres' one that uses Chris Hein Horns.http://soundclick.com/share?songid=6999784It takes a bit of programing, but sounds pretty good.

Bill,if you're not in a huge hurry Big Fish is supposed to release a VI called "Mojo" this month and I think it's going to be the best thing yet short of forking over MAJOR money for Fablesounds' "Broadway And Big Band"...http://www.bigfishaudio.com/4DCGI/detail.html?1205

Thanks Matto, those sound f-ing great!!!! the demo is pretty mind blowing.My wife and I have a buyer for our house so waiting for this is perfect . . . gives me a little time for the smoke to clear and make sure that my "goes intas" are greater than my "goes outtas"
