Customizable Animator

Animator is a smart feature, providing an intuitive and inspiring way to play authentic brass phrases while maintaining real-time control. Jam on over 200 ready-to-play, expertly-arranged riffs. Trigger up to six phrases at a time via keyswitch, always in perfect harmony.

Session Horns Smart Voice Split

Smart Voice Split

Create stunning horn arrangements with your keyboard in no time. Smart Voice Split automatically allocates each note of a chord to the corresponding brass instruments, just as an arranger would do.

Press two keys, and the instruments split into lower and higher ranges – trumpets at the top and sax and trombone at the bottom. Play three keys, and the trombone is automatically mapped to the lowest note. Add a fourth note below, and the trombone takes up the new bass note, while the higher pitches are allocated to the rest of the ensemble.

Session Horns Pro Smart Chord

Smart Chord

Trying to capture that funky brass chord or surprising melodic changes? With Smart Chord it’s simple, using just one or two fingers, to get perfectly-built chords, orchestrated and arranged for typical horn voicings.
