How to get the Big Band sound?
I'm working on some big band-arrangements and thought that I'd need to get another library besides the Samplemodeling instruments to get the appropriate sound.
After checking out some demo-tracks, I've realised that the Sample-modeling instruments can be perfectly used to get this massive ensemble-sound I'm looking for. Yet, I'm not sure how to get this sound.
Are there midi-files for the big band-demos that I could study? Or would someone be so kind as to share some tips & tricks?
Would there be any advantage in combining the Chris Hein Horns Compact with the Sample-Modeling instruments to get this sound?
Thanks for any information.

I find the results from overdubbing manually played tracks very good, it gives some kind of brass section feeling. But it is hard work and takes a lot of time to finish.
Yes, I agree that it takes a lot of hard work. I'm just wondering if there are any tips to get started.
Having created this variety of MIDI tracks, it gives lots of possibilities. I really enjoy that stage. The results are very rewarding.
But there are other methods, like using only one MIDI source and varying with different instruments and IR's. That may also lead to good results, but I admit I've never done that.
Not sure if this helps, it's nothing new or special.
