SECOND INSTALLMENT OF FLAGSHIP HOLLYWOOD SERIES ADDS WORLD-CLASS BRASS
TO AWARD-WINNING STRINGS FOR PURE HOLLYWOOD MAGIC
Hollywood, CA (June 8, 2011) – EASTWEST follows their multiple award-winning Hollywood Strings Virtual Instrument with Hollywood Brass, a massive 150 gigabyte instrument that features unprecedented sound quality and the brand new PLAY 3 playback engine for the very latest in performance and control.
The second installment in the Hollywood series, Hollywood Brass is an epic achievement, once again combining the talents of Producers Doug Rogers, Nick Phoenix and Thomas Bergersen and recording engineer Shawn Murphy.
Recorded in EastWest Studio 1, widely regarded as the "best brass recording room in the entire world" with 5 user-controllable mic positions, Hollywood Brass is designed to work seamlessly with Hollywood Strings (and the upcoming Woodwinds and Percussion) for the ultimate in virtual Hollywood scoring.
"Hollywood Brass is the most powerful, realistic and extensive brass library ever created. There is a focus and ease of use in this Virtual Instrument that is unprecedented. Hollywood Brass runs flawlessly in the completely revamped PLAY 3 engine and has 10 times the content and detail than its closest competitor, without any additional complexity or clutter. New revolutionary fanfare patches are light on computer resources, but offer the most playable and instantly gratifying results on just one midi channel. But words are just words. Once you experience Hollywood Brass, you will see that this is EastWest's finest creation to date." said producers Doug Rogers, Nick Phoenix and Thomas Bergersen.
Hollywood Brass is approximately 150 gigabytes of pure Hollywood magic and includes Solo Trumpet, 2 Trumpets, 3 Trumpets, Solo French Horn, 2 French Horns, 6 French Horns, Solo Trombone, 2 Tenor + 1 Bass Trombone, Solo Tuba, Solo Cimbasso, and a low brass section consisting of 2 Tenor Bones, 1 Bass Trombone, 1 Tuba and 1 Cimbasso. A world-class group of brass artists was gathered for a sampling marathon that lasted for 21 straight 11-hour days followed by a year of post-production.
An exhaustive list of articulations and techniques make Hollywood Brass the most expressive and realistic orchestral brass library on the market:
• True legato intervals at 3 dynamics that are smooth and realistic in all situations
• Polyphonic legato
• True connected legato repetitions at 3 dynamics
• Sustained legato samples from pp all the way to fff. And when we say pp and fff, we really mean it!

• 8 way staccato round robin at 4 dynamics
• 4 way round robin marcato short at 3 dynamics

• Falls
