Good Brass Samples

Hi guys,

Does anybody know about some REALLY GOOD brass samples for EXS 24 mk2?I have almost everything made for AKAI,I also have the Miroslav Philharmonic,some GIGA samples,etc. but all of them sound too "soft" or "classical",and I need the real punch and attack and aggression of,say, a modern big band or at least a combo.It's not always possible to call real players and record them,you know.Please help!

New System?

Hi,guys,

I've read many times on this forum that one should NEVER change a working system.I work on a Power PC Dual G5 at 2.3 Ghz and 8 gigs of RAM,and Logic Pro 7.2.3,with a whole bunch of additional software like Melodyne,Spectrasonics stuff,Nexus,Albino,etc.I bought the Logic Studio 8 right after the first release of it,but it still stands on a bookshelf,as my recent system works flawlessly.I work a lot for TV,commercials,etc.My intention is to sell the whole system (a colleague of mine is ready to buy it), and go for a Mac Pro 8-core and finally start using the Logic 8.I have the bad feeling that If I wait any longer I won't be able to get any decent money for my existing system.Do you guys think that's the right way to go?Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
