Session Horns

SESSION HORNS is the versatile and playable horn section that will instantly perk up your productions. The trombone, tenor sax and two trumpets have been sampled to perfection and deliver a rich, authentic sound, playable by anyone.

Produced in collaboration with e-instruments, this KONTAKT Instrument features the unique Smart Voice Split function for creating authentic horn arrangements with your keyboard on the fly, no experience needed. Or get inspired with the Animator – a harmonically flexible riff generator. Inject any production with a dynamite sound that will blow you away.

SESSION HORNS is the express route to authentic horns for producers of any ability. The unique Smart Voice Split automatically allocates each note of a chord to the corresponding brass instrument, just as an arranger would.

Press two keys, and the instruments split into lower and higher ranges – trumpets at the top and sax and trombone at the bottom. Play three keys, and the trombone is automatically mapped to the lowest note. Add a fourth note below, and the trombone takes up the new bass note, while the higher pitches are allocated to the rest of the ensemble.

Based in Hamburg, Germany, e-instruments specialize in intensely detailed sampled instruments. Thomas Koritke and his team have succeeded in capturing the clarity, sparkle, and liveliness of these horns, using the very best equipment for outstanding sound quality. Every note is expertly played by top horn players, leaving you nothing left to think about except choosing the perfect phrase to fit your production.
