Hello, "Noel96"...

I agree that the "Hi-Q" sounds are impressive. They have the presence and the "live" feel of the Real Tracks instruments.

That I ended up using SampleTank was a "happy accident". I was as surprised as you were to hear how lively the sampled instruments sounded. To my ears, virtual instrument software -- in general -- do not offer instrument sounds that lend themselves to the interpretation of jazz music. I think it's the way the instrument samples are recorded, which usually is done in an orchestral hall setting, so the "jazz club" ambience is missing.

I am glad you enjoyed listening to "Goodbye, Cabrini-Green". Thank you so much for your comments!
