Perfect for Contemporary Jazz, Big Band, Blues, Pop, R&B & Latin Music

“Broadway Lites 2.0” follows in the tradition of its big brother “Broadway Big Band” by accurately portraying contemporary Jazz, Blues, Pop, and R&B woodwind, brass, and rhythm instruments playing techniques in a playable virtual instrument plug-in and it also incorporates the same integrated advanced articulation scripting.

The full compliment of instruments included is as follows:

  • Bb Clarinet
  • Soprano Saxophone
  • Alto Saxophone
  • Tenor Saxophone
  • Baritone Saxophone
  • Bb Trumpet
  • Bb Trumpet with Harmon Mute
  • Tenor Trombone

Each instrument in ‘Broadway Lites’ is presented with one microphone setup, carefully selected from the multiple microphone setups included in Broadway Big Band.

For the tenor trombone, tenor saxophone and alto saxophone this is the Mic-3 setup (Loose mic) and for the trumpets, clarinet and other saxophones the Mic-1 setup (Close mic) is used. These are the most commonly used mic positions and they sound incredible when combined together!

To further aid performance, ‘Broadway Lites’ also offers Hybrid Dynamics mode, utilizing MIDI data morphing for mod-wheel driven crescendos and diminuendos.

Additionally the instruments use alternate samples handling (round-robin), including an individual cycle for each note in each dynamic level of each articulation, resulting in hundreds of individual cycles per instrument, providing the most authentic performance ever offered by a multi-sample library or a virtual instrument!

“Broadway Lites 2.0” – Feature Highlights

ULTIMATE PLAYABILITY

Fable Sounds have developed and patented a unique and intuitive articulation switching system that enables real-time access to all of the articulations of an instrument from a single patch. You can finally play a deeply sampled virtual instrument with the same creative freedom and fluidity as the musician playing the actual instrument would!

DEEPLY SAMPLED

A huge amount of articulations and playing techniques, providing endless possibilities and unmatched level of expressiveness.

LEGATO SAMPLING

Legato intervals recorded up to major 9th up and down in various legato interval articulations providing unmatched realism.

PREMIUM CONTENT

15GB of audio content, carefully selected from the critically acclaimed Broadway Big Band virtual instrument recorded at 24bit/44.1khz 20,000+ individual samples.

GROUNDBREAKING TECHNOLOGY

Whether it’s the Fable Sounds patented articulation switching system, or their Hybrid Dynamics mode, utilizing MIDI data morphing, their patented, lifelike, chaos-creating alternate samples management system, the musically liberating Unison Section feature, or their new, unique and powerful Real-Time Orchestrator, Fable Sounds always keeps you on the cutting edge of technology.

POWERFUL AND SIMPLE

“Broadway Lites” offers incredibly powerful yet simple to learn and use features, not offered by any other virtual instruments currently on the market!

The entire Broadway series of virtual instruments share the same advanced features. Here is the Advanced Features walk through video of Broadway Gig:




Explore The Exciting New Features in “Broadway Lites 2.0”

REAL-TIME ORCHESTRATOR (RTO)

A groundbreaking feature enabling polyphonic, polyrhythmic legato across a mixed section of instruments. Using RTO you can play an entire section on the keyboard, and the notes you play are orchestrated in real time and distributed to the various instruments in the RTO multi, based on orchestration schemes that you can create yourself. This is an extremely powerful system which is extremely easy to use. Great for live shows, as well as tracking under tight deadlines. It also offers articulation presets which can replace the built-in key-switching with alternative midi triggers such as foot-switches, freeing your left hand for playing notes rather than key-switches.

UNISON SECTION

From now on, you can use any of the Broadway Lites instruments multiple times in the arrangement or in a multi, even when playing unison, creating a realistic section of multiple instruments. This means that even with multiple instances of just one instrument, you can still get a realistic section of multiple instruments playing in unison. The feature is not some kind of a doubling effect, but rather it uses different samples, and performs slight adjustments to make sure each instance of the instrument sounds a little different from the other. The results are very realistic. The feature also includes “Humanize” and “Detune” knobs for further control over the section sound.

NOTATION SOFTWARE SUPPORT

With version 2.0, “Notation mode” has been added to all of the Broadway Lites instruments, to enable notation programs to communicate with Broadway Lites and use it for playback of scores, including all included articulations and dynamics. The new Notation mode also enables integration with Cubase Expression maps. This was not previously possible due to the unique articulation switching system in Broadway Lites. The new Notation Mode uses an alternative system of key-switching that is more in line with the way notation programs operate. (full documentation in the user manual).

VELOCITY CURVE CONTROL

Due to the extended dynamic range of the instruments included in Broadway Lites, it is sometimes difficult to keep dynamics under control when using a MIDI keyboard’s velocity. To help overcome this, they’ve added a new knob to control the velocity curve, which helps to adjust the responsiveness of the Broadway Lites instruments to various MIDI keyboards. The new velocity curve control feature can also be MIDI automated to make changes within a song as needed.

A NEW ARTICULATION ADDED TO TENOR SAXOPHONE 1

FP+Vibrato, added both as a temporary articulation and in combination with the existing “Strong Vibrato” articulation, as a new “Deep Vibrato” playing mode.

VARIOUS IMPROVEMENTS IN PROGRAMMING AND UI

Improved consistency of levels and envelope programming and a new and improved user interface.

  • I've used it composing the scores for movies such as IT'S COMPLICATED, DESPICABLE ME 2, and THE SMURFS 2, as well as on an album I produced in Brazil. With Broadway Big Band, they figured out ways of sampling those instruments, that sound to me and to the people I work with very very convincing, and pleasant to work with.

  • This is the most amazing tool I’ve ever come across for being able to do brass arrangements. It’s just amazing how realistic and clean the Broadway library sounds, and it’s definitely changed the way I work. It's just a phenomenal new technology. I can't even describe how cool it is, you just have to hear... At this point... if I would see a new title from Fable Sounds on the shelf I would just assume it’s amazing.

  • "I find Broadway Big Band to be revolutionary! It actually helps me write better. I feel like I'm playing a live instrument. It makes it more fun. I feel less like I'm working and more like I'm making music. There are other libraries out there that do true legato, that do different articulations, but I haven't heard articulations and samples connect this way. It's just seamless. However these guys are doing it, its different than anything else that I've heard and its definitely different than anything else I have played with.”
