Let's compare it directly to three market leaders:

| Instrument | Primary Mic | Distance | Alternative | |-------------|-------------|----------|-------------| | Trumpet | Dynamic (SM57) | 6–12 inches | Ribbon (Royer 121) | | Trombone | Large Diaphragm Condenser | 12–18 inches | SM7B | | Saxophones | Condenser (AKG C414) | 8–14 inches | MD 421 |

One of the standout attributes of the TPS Brass Section Module is its "True Legato" engine. When playing a melody, the software identifies the interval between two notes and triggers a transition sample. This mimics the way a trumpet player changes pitch using valves or a trombonist moves their slide, resulting in a fluid, connected sound that is rare in digital environments.
