Today on a sister site: Smokey Loops Slap House

that brass one shot starts at 1:03 and then at 2:40
What I need:
Sylenth, Massive or Spire preset -
name of a preset pack and exactly preset name to get that brass sound

 

sounds like stock preset "orchestration" or "orchestra hit" (its named something like that) on sylenth1

 

Hi, thanks for advice, I found preset you mentioned: it's full title is
034 KEY Orchestra Hit,
but it sounds different, I tried to modify it (distortion, phase, etc), but couldn't achieve that brass one shot

 

yeah that one,
take a look at Output's ANALOG BRASS & WINDS and Substance maybe?

 

I like how you put your request. This yours "what I need" makes me wonder if you also need a key to a stash house?

The sound is a typical brass & saw hit that could be found in dozens of samplepacks and in hundreds Serum presets.
Impact Soundworks even made a Kontakt library just with this sound called MegaBrass. Its been out there for a decade or so. Project Sam 4 have a contemporary deep brass hit similar to IS. Otherways it can be found in any Orchestral Brass library.

This stuff is so basic its not even level 1, its a kindergarten of sound design

 

Take a look @ UVI Emulation II +, Korg M1 or Roland D-50.

 

Vital VST is free, just download and install it,
follow along the tutorial and then just add reverb to taste, maybe some sidechaining.
And there you go.

 

Thanks to everybody, but I marked the list: Sylenth, Massive, Spire - those are I work with (mostly).
As for Vital, I had it and then deleted - my system doesn't like it.
Ok, so far the closest sound I found in Roland GrooveSynth 1 (pretty old, isn't it?):
preset Ac.Brass-Brass (with some tweaks)

 

These Orchestra Hits originate in the mid 70's so they are pretty old, was used in Pop, R&B and New Jack Swing the Hit sample is from
Stravinsky from 1910 and was used first in Fairlight CMI which came out 1975.

Baltic Audio Sylenth 1 Essentials Vol. 7 Slap House
Patchname: "BR Free", probably could be combined with "LD Brass".

This could be probably the closest one I found.

iirc the original massive has a ton of braam hits if you can track them down

 

Why not just go to a local studio and spend three hours with some horn players and make your own brass hit sample pack. Or go on Fiver and hire players out to make the pack for you. I spent the time energy and money to do it and now I have my own brass stab instrument that has the unique brass sound I wanted... and nobody has that sound.

 

Did you hear a reference from which I want to make a sound like? That's a pure synth brass, but very popular in EDM for now. As for real brass, I have good samples, like these that are used in my tracks:

 

Huh?? "Pure synth brass" how did you figure that out? It very well might be a real brass stab in a sampler or probably in Serums osc mixed with noise and saw with high pass and sidechain. You not going to find it in Sylenth, Spire or Massive since none of them synths can load samples or make FM modulation required for that kind of sound. I bet whole this pack was made with Serum.

Its possible in Sylenth and so on without Samples.

 

Hi all,
thanks once more for suggestions, yes, I use some tweaks, say, in Sylenth to modify premade presets...
in that synth this can be done quickly:
cut off, detune, portamento, distortion, waveform, ADSR, octavas (up/down) -
using these parameters you can change the original sound beyond recognition...
but I never did it (and never will do): to press a knob "init" and start
a new sound from the scratch, - my goal is to create a music, not sound design...

so, the ready synth brass one shots presets are welcome

 

Yep, can second that. I'm not a good Sound Designer, so I stick to being somewhat a
"Preset Whore", and collecting soundbanks and presets for my favourite synths and tweak them to my needs.
So, kudos to all the sound designers out there.
I tip my hat to you.
But I layer synths a lot of times,tho.

 

Now I am confused . Request was for a very specific sound, not any brass type hit. A brass hit can be done in any synth with a saw osc and a filter, the trick is to open cut off slower than an attack. That's basics of sound design. However synths like Sylenth, Spire and Massive are one of the very best on the market and being such they have a distinctive sound that sets them apart from the competition. And the given example from the sample pack is not the sound that any of those synths able to make. More so when a lower note than G# is hit in the example the attack goes slower as it is in a conventional sampler when a playback is slowed down the lower you go from the root note of that sample. That is a give away. Secondly the sound is very bright, almost white noisy, that is OTT type multiband in action. None of the mentioned above synths have multiband compresor. Its Serum.
