Hi Chris,
You might want to hold off on buying the GPO Jazz Edition from

No word yet whether it will be more or less than the Finale upgrade
price.
I'm also *extremely* disappointed the jazz version won't include
bass clarinet. That's insane. Bass clarinet is probably *the*
most commonly-used double today, at least in small-group jazz.
They include piccolo and alto flute in the jazz collection but not
bass clarinet.
It won't affect me (much) since I can use the bass clarinet from
regular GPO, but sheesh.
Hi Darcy,
For what it's worth, I told Gary this weeks ago. I am in the same
position as you and can get this sound from the orchestra set, but I
think Gary is not aware of what's going on in the jazz world. You
might write him and tell him what you think. I don't think the
package is yet finalized, and I suppose they could simply import the
samples from the other library.
Don't underestimate the effect of multiple emails.
