In the many years of recordings for film, game and advertising music, horn ensembles of all sizes have been recorded in the Synchron Stage Vienna, from two to twelve musicians. By far the best sound in the large “Stage A” was usually achieved with a cast of six players, and this number was also chosen for the recordings for Big Bang Orchestra: Jupiter. From pianissimo to fortissimo, the round and, in the loud range, the particularly powerful sound of the instruments is convincing.

Although the Viennese horn is common in Austrian orchestras, double horns were recorded for BBO: Jupiter, as these are usually used in international productions. The experience of the musicians with this sound ideal is reflected in the excellently recorded samples. The acoustic ambience of the Synchron Stage Vienna, in which the characteristics of the horns are particularly effective, as well as the masterful miking by the Chief Recording Engineer of the Synchron Stage Vienna, Bernd Mazagg, are further defining factors for this clear, powerful sound.

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

The horns of BBO: Jupiter have been completely re-recorded. They can therefore easily be combined with the tutti modules of the Big Bang Orchestra to achieve an even fatter brass sound. The usual mixer presets are available in the Synchron Player, which guarantee 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 Low Horns”, “Howling Horns”, “Threatening Sustain” and many more that match the presets from BBO: Hercules, Izar and Copernicus correspond.
