NEO BRASS is our flagship modern brass soloists collection. A library comprising of a plethora of articulations for each instrument, covering both ‘bread and butter’ articulations complete with beautiful true legatos, all the way to extended and experimental performance techniques unique to this collection.
All wrapped in our trailblazing ‘overlay threshold’ functionality, creating a workflow so seamless and natural you’ll feel like you have the real instrument in your own hands. A contemporary sound brimming with character and performance playability. Pairing beautifully with the rest of our NEO Soloists Ranges (Strings & Winds).
Important Note: Neo Brass requires the FULL version of Kontakt 5/6/7/8 or above. Do not purchase this if you only have Kontakt Player.
