Bonners ( a UK based shop) did a nice demo on them on a NS4 at YT, linked below.
I forgot how to insert the video directly as I don’t post frequently.
I dont know what pedal was connected, probably a control pedal, as the swell worked good on some of the sounds.

I haven't yet had a chance to download and try the new samples, though I think for the "FP" labeled samples, the swell is built into the sample so when you hold down the keys it will happen automatically.
These are great sounding samples! I don't do horn parts often as I prefer a real horn section and have one in a few of my bands. However, for my general purpose cover band, I have worked out some decent horn parts for songs like Sledgehammer and Let's Dance, so I think using some of these newer samples could make them even better!
Between these samples and the Astoria grand, I'm really thinking Nord wants to showcase them in a new instrument at NAMM...most likely an Electro 7 or something entirely new that could sit between the Electro and the Stage? Hmm.
