The goal of Fable Sounds' Broadway Big Band was to make virtual instruments sound less virtual and more real. To accomplish this, note transitions were recorded up to a Major 9th in both directions and with different playing techniques and multiple microphone setups, utilizing Broadway Performer software. What this means to you, is that you'll hear staccatoed banjos, legato upright bass, and xylophone scrapes that can be brought to the forefront of your mix without fear of being "outed" for using samples. The flexible collection of instruments included are non-orchestral brass, woodwind, and percussion that would be suitable for adding flavor to diverse musical styles. Powered by Steinberg's HALion Player, you'll get impeccable sonic integrity, reliability, and character like few virtual instrument packages out there.<BR /> Don't be fooled by the product name, this isn't for the 42nd Street set. However, it will go a "broad" way towards making it sound like you're working with a genuine "big" band, and not just a computer.
