BIG BANG ORCHESTRA COPERNICUS

Big Bang Orchestra: Copernicus - Trumpets

• Four B-trumpets, recorded at Synchron Stage Vienna

• From velvety pianissimo to brilliant fortissimo fanfares

• Real legati, glissandi, swells, flutter tongue, trills etc.

Like all brass libraries of the Big Bang Orchestra, "Kopernikus" also delivers the sound that has become established in high-quality international film music productions. For the ensemble of four B-flat trumpets recorded here, instruments with pump valve mechanics were chosen to ensure this characteristic sound.

The musicians' experience with this ideal sound is reflected in the excellently recorded samples. Other defining factors for this brilliant sound are the acoustic ambience of the Synchron Stage Vienna, in which the characteristics of the trumpets come across particularly well, as well as the masterful microphone placement by the Chief Recording Engineer of the Synchron Stage Vienna, Bernd Mazagg.

The library contains a variety of playing styles in up to five dynamic levels: short notes, marcatos, true legati, sforzandi, sforzatissimi, various crescendos and diminuendos, flutter tongue, trills and fast repetitions.

The trumpets of BBO: Kopernikus have been completely re-recorded. They can therefore be easily combined with the Big Bang Orchestra's Tutti modules to achieve an even bigger brass sound. The usual mixer presets are available in the Synchron Player, which ensure a homogeneous sound when used in combination with the other modules of the Big Bang Orchestra. In addition, the "Processed" category contains mixer presets such as "Compressed", "Sparkling", "Wall of Trumpets", "Outer Space Trumpets", "Threatening Sustain" and many more, which correspond to the presets of BBO: Hercules, Izar and Jupiter.
