Critic Reviews

Heavyocity Forzo Modern Brass

soundonsound.com

Heavyocity's Forzo Brass is a powerhouse of cinematic sound, delivering beautifully recorded, dynamic brass textures ideal for film and game scoring. Its expansive array of articulations, particularly the innovative Evolved engines, allows for a creative sound design experience that's hard to beat. However, the absence of legato articulations might disappoint those seeking traditional orchestral realism. Additionally, the lack of GUI controls for individual articulation volumes could hinder precise mixing. Overall, Forzo is an exhilarating brass library that excels in its epic ambition, making it a valuable addition for composers looking to elevate their orchestral palette.

FORZO from Heavyocity [REVIEW] — Pro Audio Files

theproaudiofiles.com

Heavyocity's Forzo Brass delivers a powerful collection of cinematic brass sounds, boasting impressive articulation and a user-friendly interface. Recorded at Skywalker Sound, it excels in traditional orchestral textures and inventive sound design options. However, newcomers might find the control mapping complex without consulting the manual. While the dynamic sequencer feels intuitive, the learning curve may deter some users. Priced at $399 or $749 for a bundle, Forzo Brass is a worthy investment for composers seeking to enhance their orchestral palette, but it may require patience to fully unlock its potential.
