We are very happy to release Front Porch Tuba, a realistic new sample collection for Kontakt 5+. Front Porch Tuba is the first tuba library geared specifically toward jazz, folk, funk, and other non-orchestral uses. With 31 unique samples for every tuba note (all chromatically sampled), you will be able to create incredibly versatile and realistic performances.

- Chromatically sampled BBb tuba: 33 note range, from low E up to middle C
- Ultimate tuba library for non-orchestral music:
- full pizzicato-style short (staccato) notes geared toward jazz, folk, etc
- 4 Round Robin variations for every short note at every velocity means more realistic results
- 6 unique fluttertongue samples per note give the perfect mean tuba growl
- relaxed feel imitates authentic "street tuba” performance
- but don’t rule out orchestral uses, add some punch to your tuba line!

- 31 unique samples for each tuba note (1023 total samples, over 320 MB):
- 3 velocity levels for every note (except sforzando-piano articulation)
- 5 articulations per tuba note:
- "short": 12 samples for every note (4 variations x 3 velocities)
- "long accented": 6 samples each note (2 var x 3 vel)
- "long unaccented": 6 samples each note (2 var x 3 vel)
- "fluttertongue": 6 samples each note (2 var x 3 vel)
- "sforzando-piano": 1 sample each note (1 sample x 1 vel)

- Avoid the "machine gun" effect with variations for every note (except sfz articulation).
- Great control with main keyswitch patch: see Keyboard Map
- Mic placed in bell for powerful, strong tuba sound
- Full, clean samples throughout
- 16-bit, 44.1 kHz, mono samples
