I use it regularly and find it to be top notch. Is a bit of a memory hog and takes a while to fully load. But sounds great.

Are you talking about the Pro version or the regular Session Horns yoropal?

I think the Pro version is a little overpriced.

I like the original Session Horns, and do find it useful more often than not.
I like the demos for the pro version, but can't justify the price. For the same price (upgrade price that is) I can purchase Chris Hein Horns Compact - an equally awesome sounding horn library that is much more flexible.
If it had been $99 for the upgrade I probably would have purchased it, as I am accustomed to the workflow in Session Horns, and the transition might have been easier. As it is I am looking forward to layering CHH and Session Horns!

Just as an alternative suggestion, I picked up Kirk Hunter's Concert Brass 2 on sale right now. Normally it's $249, but I got it for $62.25. Much less than NI's deal. It's gone up a bit now, but it's still on sale for about 1/3 of the price of NI's Session Horns Pro, which may be a bit more sophisticated, but dollar for dollar $62.25 was sure hard to pass on. I have the regular Session Horns [not Pro], which I got for $49.00 in December and I think the 2 libraries will compliment each other rather well. http://forum.cakewalk.com...ive-Sale-m3049278.aspx

So looks like no one has actually bit the bullet and picked up the Pro version, I think I will hold onto my cash as already have Sample Modellings, saxes, trombone and trumpet. The saxes and trombone are excellent but the trumpet is definitely lacking although they will be bringing out a new version of that as I emailed and asked them.

In that case, check out Embertone's Chapman Trumpet. It might just fit the bill. I have it & really like it. http://embertone.com/inst..nts/chapman-trumpet.php
