So you can start with one type of sound and switch to a different technique mid note. Oh! Almost forgot, I also like the ability to switch the vibrato type and things like growl mid-articulation. If Mojo horns, Glory Days, Swing! Fire Horns and Session Horns are on your list, you might want to take a look at Broadway Lites 2.0 for $99 at VST Buzz as well! (But I did get this NFR so I’m not completely objective.) I’ve spent as much on a lot less than I think you’re getting here. The trumpets were very easy to use and the humanization and unison features make it easy to get them sounding like a group of big band trumpets.Īgain I’m taking the €99 price point into account heavily. They have some cool sounds but for this I didn’t feature them. The trombones were a bit buried in the mix. Instead I made a more rough and “crazy” fun version by keeping the tenors in focus and letting them drive the energy. Maybe with more volume ramping I could get it closer?Īnd I wasn’t nailing the decrescendo on the “dot daaahhh” responses either, so I alternated between falls and two short “dot dot” hits instead. I was also referencing a “lost recordings” version rather than the more popular version for the initial vibe, but used the popular version’s solo notes.Ĭon: I didn’t nail the smooth, quick crescendos and decrescendos in the alto saxes. I wasn’t adhering to the Glenn Miller instrumentation (I featured the soprano sax for the second solo and a group of saxes for the first “solo” with a bunch of humanization dialed up). Fable Sounds Broadway Lites 2. The new Notation Mode uses an alternative system of key-switching that is more in line with the way notation programs operate. In this video I changed the sound a bit to sound more mono and a bit more vintage like a classic recording, because I thought there were plenty of examples on the main Fable Sounds site of sounding “full” and contemporary.Īgain this was a rough mix done in one afternoon while I was getting acquainted with the library. Fable Sounds have developed and patented. Again not sure what they changed exactly but even this Lite version is a pretty deep library with a Real Time Orchestrator. Fable Sounds Broadway LITEs 2.

#FABLESOUNDS BROADWAY LITES FULL VERSION#
I am guessing what is missing from the full version are some dynamic layers? There was a spot in the alto sax where I was missing some middle ground in the mezzo area (mp to mf or f had a gap in the 15Gb Lites, that might be included in the full 100Gb version).ĭon’s SLR review in 2016 looks to be before the 2.0 update. Particularly liked the soprano and tenor saxes. Didn’t take much effort to find the strengths of the library.
#FABLESOUNDS BROADWAY LITES MANUAL#
I made a super quick snippet of In The Mood in a single afternoon with Broadway Lites. Hi All, Any insight into the following would be appreciated: The Broadway Lites VST manual states: For those of you who are using notation software (such as Sibelius, Finale, Dorico, etc.) and who wish to use Broadway LITEs sounds for direct playback inside the notation software, we created the Notation Mode.
