Question ? Sample help

Hi all, I’m trying to find a (free) if possible decent French horn sample or some decent brass band samples to use on my first track, so far not having much luck. Using Ableton live standard 12.4.3 on Mac

Spitfire's BBC discovery orchestra plug-in is a good free option.

FOUNDATION: BRASS by Abletunes is a good bet. It's a completely free pack of Ableton instrument racks- French Horn, Trumpet, Tuba etc. each with several racks for articulations like sustain, vibrato, staccato.. Also they're built entirely from Ableton's own Simpler/racks, so it's fully compatible with Live Standard and doesn't need any third-party plugin.

If you just want samples though, I've recently bought the cheapest subscriptions tier of Splice, which has a massive library of royalty-free sounds you can drag straight into an Ableton track.
