Amy Winehouse - Valerie (Brass Section)

As we started a little conversation about brass / horn section sound design within the the Peter Gabriel - Sledge Hammer thread:

I want to share what I am currently doing in my new band project - and as one more example for the usage of the Chord Maker :sunglasses:

In the chorus there’s a small line from Sax and Trumpet which I doubled up to 4 voices to use the voice spreading of Session Horns

To play this with the pads or some free keys with the left hand in single notes on my Arturia KeyLab MkII I did a Chord Maker scheme just to provide 4 note chords to trigger the Session Horns Pro in Kontakt Player.

The Chord Maker builds up on C2 C#2 D2 - G#1 A1 A#1 - A#1 F1 F#1 G1 - C1 C#1 matching my Arturia Pads in a special order - but that’s a different story…
