Reviews & Testimonials

Who is using Broadway Big band?
Broadway Big Band is now used on many high-profile projects:
That's including several major studio film projects, many TV shows, Major touring Broadway shows, and pop albums. Soon we will be posting case studies on some of them.



Gearwire.com says:
"Fable Sounds presents a virtual instrument package featuring amazingly realistic brass. You truly won't believe your ears when you hear how lifelike the samples are; the range of inflection and textural variation is as close to the real thing as it gets without having a horn player in the room with you. That may sound like a shameless plug for Fable Sounds, all we at Gearwire do is urge you to hear it for yourself. Once upon a time, brass samples were very hard to create with any kind of authenticity, but this product raises the bar rather high."
