1960s Soul Jazz Flute – A rich-sounding soprano flute with a few surprises: wild flutter-tongue articulations and an even crazier set of sung-flute samples (limited to the player’s upper vocal range). Perfect for Jazz, Soul Jazz, and Prog Rock flute solos or for adding unique effects to your productions.
1960s Solo Detroit Soul Bari Sax – Inspired by Motown bari sax legend Mike Terry, this sound is big and wide on the bottom, giving it plenty of punch in a horn section. Louder velocity layers are edgier and rougher - ideal for soulful solo lines.

Grungy Solo Rock ’N’ Roll Tenor Sax – A raw, growling tenor sax tone reminiscent of Jr. Walker, King Curtis, and Bobby Keys. Later adapted to rock by Clarence Clemons with Bruce Springsteen. Ideal for solo lines, fills, and lead parts in gritty rock and blues tracks.
Jazz Fusion Soprano Sax – Inspired by players like Grover Washington Jr. and Wayne Shorter, this soprano sax delivers warm, soft tones at lower velocities and a cutting, wild edge at higher dynamics. A great choice for Jazz ensembles and solo lines.

Like its best-selling predecessors, Vintage Horns 3 wasn’t created to be a flawless, ultra-clean virtual instrument. Instead, our goal was to craft a collection of brass and woodwind instruments that embody the raw, organic character of horn players from the ‘30s to the ‘70s - complete with the quirks and imperfections that made their performances so memorable.
This library draws inspiration from the distinctive playing styles of legendary musicians such as Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Fred Wesley, Eddie Harris, Wayne Shorter, David Sanborn, and Lenny Pickett, as well as the powerhouse horn sections of Motown, Tower of Power, the J.B.’s, and the Rebirth Brass Band.
To achieve this sound, we carefully studied these musicians’ techniques - paying close attention to tone, vibrato (or lack thereof), articulation, and instrument choices. We embraced the loose tuning and kept in the expressive details that other virtual instruments might have removed - like honking, squawking, warbling, cracked, and slurred notes - the kind of nuances real horn players used throughout the ‘40s, ‘50s, ‘60s, and ‘70s.
The result? A sampled horn collection with true character - a virtual instrument unlike anything else on the market. We think you’ll agree, and we hope you enjoy Vintage Horns 3 as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Vintage Horns 3 has been designed for seamless integration with Komplete Kontrol and Maschine, offering you a unique hands-on experience. Easily manipulate the interface using the controls of all NKS compatible hardware.
