Ok thanks guys! That reassures me. I was concern if there might be a big acoustic difference or one library sounds more present then the other, things like that.

Speaking of acoustics, I find that it is still a major weakness in the VSL, I wish the instruments were recorded in a good acoustic concert hall and surrounded by all the other instruments for natural resonances. Even with the fanciest effects, reverb and all, it still doesn't feel as if the instrument is in a natural environment. I understand that for smaller ensemble you would need a different acoustic and that would imply recording several types of acoustics so it's probably easier to do this way: one totally dry sound and you do what you want with it. Practical yes, but to my ears not satisfactory.

I struggle with the solo trumpet for reasons Caruso mentioned.
But for me, the king of naked instruments is that solo trombone. To my ears, it sounds like a synthesizer. I keep playing it, hitting the notes thinking that it must be my fault, that my understanding of that sound has been corrupted by highly processed orchestral music.
The solo trombone just seems impervious to effects. I feel like I've thrown everything at that instrument to warm it up and stitch it some acoustical clothing. I just haven't been able to use it in any setting. (The trombone ensemble is better.)
Can MIR ransom the solo trombone? That would be amazing to me.
