First Call Horns by Big Fish Audio is a virtual horn instrument for producers who need realistic brass without the stiffness of orchestral libraries. It covers pop, Latin, jazz, big band, and rock ‘n’ roll, with solo and section versions of trumpet (including cup, harmon, and straight mutes), trombone, flugelhorn, French horn, and soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones. Beyond sustained notes, it includes riffs, dynamic combinations, and improvisations to speed up arrangement. The updated interface adds effects that push these sampled horns into modern production territory, while Komplete Kontrol and Maschine integration gives hands-on control via NKS hardware. It suits hobby producers writing funk, soul, pop, or cinematic tracks who want expressive horns without hiring players, and works in FL Studio, Ableton, or Logic on Windows.
