Bought the Garritan Personal Orchestra some months ago. The better depth and more richness in details compared to the fewer sound samples coming with FM2012 have pleased me and been helpful in my work.
Now I wanted to do a brass band version of a recent project, where it would have been of benefit to work with cornet sounds over the GPO trumpets. Also to have access to the alto/tenor horn sounds over the orchestral horn sounds. Same for a greater variety of baritone, euphonium, and tuba sounds. So I listened to the sound samples on the makemusic site. And I was deeply disappointed by the artificial, glassy, orchestrion quality of the soundscape. Do I have a wose than usual ear-day, or have others had similar experiences? Is the band library being in version 2 over the GPO being in version 4 a hint that the band library is kind of outdated?
