Whats a good library for "disco" brass ?

[MasterTuner]

Looking for a good library for disco brass, brass stabs used in pop songs.

E.g. Uptown Funk etc, and a lot of the 70s disco stuff.

I did a whole disco CD using these libraries as well as some great string libraries that I got from other devs. You can hear it at my Soundcloud page under playlist Disco Everywhere

what exactly makes a "disco" brass sound different than just a brass
sound? like the difference between a "disco" triangle and a "death metal" triangle.... i would think its the playing style, not the actual sound.
but i dunno, im no disco expert, wags is.
but, see this is where accumulating sample libraries can eat
terabytes of HDD space real quick.

You're right. Libraries eat tons of hard drive space, which is why, I know, you're vehemently against them. But disco brass is different from regular brass that you would hear in a pop or rock song because of the particular articulations that disco brass uses to get that sound. You can't fake that with synths and you can't get it with libraries that don't include those articulations.

In fact, with all the strings libraries that I owned, I had to get a special one to do the disco CD that I just completed because those other libraries simply didn't have the articulations that I needed. Essentially, I'm talking about scoop up and down and falls. Warp IV trombones and trumpets, as expensive as they are, have every articulation that those instruments can make. There is nothing else out there that even comes close probably because most people don't really care about that much detail, such as yourself. But if you want to do realistic Broadway or Disco, it's not happening with a synth or even a basic sample library.

Waiting on Layzer's response that he could do an Emmy award winning Disco CD using only a paper clip and a rubber band.

To be fair, I doubt I could do an award winning disco CD with what I have and I have plenty.

I've always hated Disco. Not just the music but the whole polyester leisure suit lifestyle. Being an old Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin fan I found Disco irritating.

It might have to do with the fact I've always hated Brass instruments and thought they should all be melted down and made into bullets.

The Trumpet was my generation's Vuvuzela.

really? i can usually get the string sound i'm after with M1 by adjusting the amp and filter ENVs, and pitch mod. if i want to emulate the breathing sound
of the string ensemble players i just use a little white noise modulated with an lfo

[Tricky-Loops]

EastWest libraries, for example Hollywood or Pop brass aren't recommended any more?

Trumpets can sound pretty annoying, especially in Bavaria, but it can also sound sexy...

Yeah, and it absolutely sounds like a live orchestra. LMAO.

You keep dreaming and living your fantasy life Layzer but you're not going to fool anybody with that into thinking they're listening to a real string section.

you know, for my music, i dont even care if it sounds like a live orchestra.
i dont need to convince anyone of anything. if it sounds good people
will listen. real or not.
i heard a cover of new orders "blue monday" by an orchestra and it sucked.
