Only learned about this library's existence a few days ago. Sounds terrific and as always your review and walkthrough is a great help. I wish more sample companies would make libraries for UVI's software.
Just came cross your channel by accident. Absolutely love it! Some one who is really digging into theses samplers/ modeled Virtual Instruments. Will definitely be digging through your stuff.
Thanks for this review. Very helpful. I have always problems with velocity. Some tones are louder than others and no idea how to fix that. I increased already the velocity on my keyboard and used Midi modifiers in Cubase but still the same.
This should be good. I hope there's a comparison to my beloved Audio Modelling gems. Update; this pushed me over the edge. As with my adventure back into VSTs after 10 years, your review & playing have motivated me to spend money, bro. Ruben. You've been a huge influence on my library choices & my wallet! LOL. I can't wait to conduct a shootout between Acoustic Samples, Audio Modeling, & Sample Modeling... I also can't wait until Sampled Audio (when they exist) & Audio Acoustica come out with horn libraries, so, at the very least, i can have every combination of those words covered. LOL
Thanks for the kind and encouraging words. I’ve been going back and forth between them. So far they’re both great. SWAM horns are way easier to program but the lack of vibrato shaping makes it limiting as far as stylistic tailoring. The vibrato in swan sounds inauthentic. However, the timbre-especially when layering-gives SWAM the edge. It sounds radio ready almost right out of the box. This is a tough one.
@@hifimidi my ears are not as keen as yours, but I certainly hear what you mean; SWAM has a "sparkle and polish" to the sound. I also find it easier to generate rips due to the lack of less intense velocity response. But, V Horns has superior keyswitch effects (the doit especially (samples, I'm sure), the microphone option, & spatial simulator are superstars! Are you having any CPU issues when implementing the section option in a single instance of UVI? My computer is a workhorse (3.07GHz OC'd,12/24 cores, 96GB RAM) and this hasn't stuttering.
@@hifimidi I agree about SWAM. It's amazing how little tweaking you must do with it to actually fool people that it's a real brass section. I mean, if you were to use it for a ska or funk band, I bet no one could tell the difference!
Trumpet player here…D2 is doing a 1/2 valve choke kinda thing. Probable use would be starting the note with the choke on and then continuing upward with a choked glissando up to an open note. Maybe…that’s all I can come up with for the reasoning for including that technique.
Hola compañero, gracias por la demostracion, muy buenos tus videos y muy buen trabajo de los desarrolladores de Acoustic Samples... saludos y bendiciones!
Hi, nice review. However, I have not heard anywhere, not even on the Acousticsamples homepage, the articulation Shake or Liptrill. Is that possible with this library?
Not HIFIMidi, but a few personal must-haves for writing big band stuff with virtual instruments are the following: - "Swing!" and "Swing More!" by ProjectSAM (for Kontakt Player) - Glory Days: Big Band Horns by Orchestral Tools (for Kontakt Player) - "Session Horns" or "Session Horns Pro" by Native Instruments (for Kontakt Player) - "Atomic Big Band: The Horns" by Straight Ahead Samples (for Kontakt Player) These are my personal choices, but there's a few honorable mentions like "Broadway Big Band" by Fable Sounds and the SWAM brass stuff. Plenty to work with, but be sure to check out some demos to find out which sample libraries are the ones for you!
Depends on what your goal is with them! If you're looking for overall realism, you have to check out Sample Modeling's Tuba and French Horn library. Basically the same deal as Vhorns (as in it's both samples and synth combined), too!
I’m using them both right now. Swam is definitely easier to use but I wish it had vibrato shaping and pitch imprecision and attack imprecision. IMO, that feature gives V Horns a more human element. But swam trumpet is such a joy to use.
HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED FOR LATIN MUSIC!!! THE TRUMPETS DO NOT SOUND GOOD.... ALTAMENTE NO RECOMENDADO PARA MUSICA LATINA!!! LAS TROMPETAS NO SUENAN BIEN....
Seems obvious, though. The library is far more catered towards jazz and noir settings. If you're looking for some really good funk/latin trumpets, you should check out "The Trumpet V3" by Sample Modeling. They have a couple of funk/latin songs made with that product on their site!
Thank you for this review. I feel like I’ve been looking for this for years!

How good is VHORNS with making loud notes, atleast in the same style as the Police Squad theme song? I've been meaning to buy one of thoae libraries
Thanks for all brass instruments very good 👍👌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Just came cross your channel by accident. Absolutely love it! Some one who is really digging into theses samplers/ modeled Virtual Instruments. Will definitely be digging through your stuff.
Worth mentioning that you can play the mute with eg a foot pedal to get those trumpety wah wah type sounds. Only on one setting if I remember.
Sweet. Nice arrangement of Nature Boy, too.
Got it on Black Friday. Amazing product!
Thanks for this review

Sounds really great. Super review too
Can you review Vhorns Sax collection? There is an early bird price at the moment. I want to purchase, but I trust your reviews the most. lol
For your information, this song was NOT composed by Miles Davis!
great demo, thx!!

Fantastic demo, thanks!
beautiful !!
Hi! The VST alllows you mix 1,2 or 4 instruments and create like a brass section?
Hi. What library would you recomend as big band?
Not HIFIMidi, but a few personal must-haves for writing big band stuff with virtual instruments are the following:
- "Swing!" and "Swing More!" by ProjectSAM (for Kontakt Player)
- Glory Days: Big Band Horns by Orchestral Tools (for Kontakt Player)
- "Session Horns" or "Session Horns Pro" by Native Instruments (for Kontakt Player)
- "Atomic Big Band: The Horns" by Straight Ahead Samples (for Kontakt Player)
These are my personal choices, but there's a few honorable mentions like "Broadway Big Band" by Fable Sounds and the SWAM brass stuff. Plenty to work with, but be sure to check out some demos to find out which sample libraries are the ones for you!
For Jazz I like the sound of this more than SWAM. It is very expensive though!
you wanna check out Sample Modeling.
what reverb did you use to glue this so beautifully ?
There's no wah wah on the trumpets? Great review though tbh
Great stuff! will there be available an IOS-version too?
I’m not sure. That would be fantastic. However I haven’t been told anything my acoustic samples.
Is there a trial demo I can download?
Create a tutorial, in how to take the horns and Saxes and group them to create sections
thanks for the video helped a lot. Do you know how to have multiple horns at once? I have loaded them my I can only play them as solos
Can you play poly or only mono?
Can u pls help me out....... I have downloaded this vst..... But the extension....... Of files are UFS...... HOW TO INSTALL???.... Pls relpyyyy
hola esto es para falcon uvi ? o vst independiente ?
I’m trying to find French Horns.
Any ideas there ?
Depends on what your goal is with them! If you're looking for overall realism, you have to check out Sample Modeling's Tuba and French Horn library. Basically the same deal as Vhorns (as in it's both samples and synth combined), too!
No Saxophones?
nice review ! you didn't cover the multi option
Nature Boy was written by eden ahbez not Miles Davis
Will you prefer this one over swam?
I’m using them both right now. Swam is definitely easier to use but I wish it had vibrato shaping and pitch imprecision and attack imprecision. IMO, that feature gives V Horns a more human element. But swam trumpet is such a joy to use.
Anybody know if this has latency issues
How to Instal
?
Very good, but they could release it for iOS.
Actually composed by Ehdan Ahbez.... this is a really good trumpet sound for sure
🤦🏻♂️ you’re absolutely right. A little bit of googling could have saved me from such a rookie mistake. Thank you.
Hey, I sent you an email last week about a review request. I didn't know where else to put it. Is this something you can do?
I saw it. Sorry about that. I have about 6 reviews after this one. I’m trying to get them done asap.
Pls share plsplspls
nature boy was definitely not composed by miles davis
5:45 yes, but this definitely means this is going to be CPU intensive compared to other virtual instruments.
THERE IS A REPEAT KEYSWITCH FOR WHAT YOU ARE DOING AT 4:18 🤣
No saxes. WTF
SWAM horns are still king. and 8mb apiece. modelling is the way to go
lol

Cuál recomiendas para música latina?
Entre los mejores esta el Vintage Horns !!
