Surely not. Using the same patch for multiple staves does not sound anything like a the same number of actual players, each of which has an individual sound. I guess a well-designed chorus controller would give some variety here, which is what chorus was designed for to begin with, but I'm not sure if it would be enough to capture the difference very well. -- David W.
