Looking For A Good Horn Section Plug In

I'm looking for a horn section plug in and have been looking at Native Instruments Session Horns.  Has anyone had experience using this program in Sonar.

    I have the $99 version. Not bad, not killer. Chris Hein Horns Compact is a touch better maybe. First Call Horns is another hit and miss. None of them are over the top jaw droppers. My kingdom for a horn section in a can where it seems like all the inflections are well done and the thing is more playable than most of these are. .02

    I used NI's Session Horns on this song. They kick in at 0:55, 1:45, 2:20, and the outro at 3:35, but I use them pretty sparingly - mostly stabs, and some swells - as characteristic of the type of music.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    Thanks for the input guys.  Craig, I would use the horns sparingly as well in some of my recordings so I think it will be sufficient. They sound good in your song, fun tune by the way !  When downloading something like this into Platinum will the command center do it or will I need a download folder as we used in X3 Producer ?
