This was perfect, thank you. It's important that there were so many samples because i need to get the veracity that a bunch of slightly different attacks make. I can't freakin' have the same sound playing over and over again with all the little discrepancies of an individual honk MAGNIFIED AND FROZEN IN TIME. This is extremely valuable and I wish more people took this care when recording sounds.
