Arturia – Augmented Brass
Augmented BRASS is a software instrument that seamlessly fuses beautifully-recorded samples with powerful synth engines into powerful and experimental brass for your composition and production.
_An immediate cinematic brass toolkit
A refreshing option for producers, composers, and musicians looking for ready-to-go, high-quality brass sounds suited to their style, from classic to experimental.
