Literally, the difference between something that sounds like an accordion and something that sounds like horns. Even with my crappy ear, articulation makes a huge difference.

Tom, do you have the basic four-horn version? I was SO hoping that would be good enough ($99). But after listening to the Pro demo, I'm not sure.

The Pro gives you the ability to program each horn separately, which can add a lot of realism.  More work, yes, but if you don't want to sound fake ...
 
Cheers,

Session Horns is a pile of poo in my opinion - I have tried to use them on soooo many occasions and ended up moving on - they sound so fake and cheesy.
Is there really that much of a step up with the Pro version? I would like to get a decent Kontakt Horn Section.....or any other recommendations?

didnt you use session horns on one of your forum monkeys tracks,,
 
i thought it sounded very very very good, not cheese flavored at all

Yep, those Session Horns are a bit cheesy. Not bad though depending on how they're used . Check out Sample Modeling or Chris Hein.

Also Project SAM just released their SWING lib. & Straight Ahead Samples is releasing Straight Ahead! Jazz Horns later in May.

Nope not Forum Monkeys.
 
It was in Stan Dupp & The Jennifer Tillies version of We Used To Know.

The Pro version is definitely much better.
