"Is there a good jazz library?"

Since @Candlebane asked this question in the Noteperformer thread, I figured I’d answer in a new thread as to not further derail that one. The answer is no, or if there is one I haven’t found it. Some libraries, like Broadway Big Band, sound pretty good but don’t play well with notation software at all. I have Broadway Lites but have never been able to get “Notation mode” working on it so can’t use it with Dorico. JABB uses aftertouch vibrato which isn’t possible in Dorico so JABB saxes and bra…

If you have Garritan JABB

JABB Garritan use for dummies

Are there plans to allow JABB3 to work with Dorico? Currently, it does not. Thanks.

and its playback template

There are various sample libraries, if you find one with a Dorico expression map it will save you time, otherwise you can set them up yourself.

@Kevin_Outterbridge

Musescre Studio 4.5, has the playback capability of Jazz articulations while Dorico Pro 5 doesn’t.

Perhaps it is coming. The Dorico team is small and the software has to embrace genres of music spanning many hundreds of years, it is only at v5. HALion is primarily orchestral. They would have to create a jazz sample library (which others have already done.)

If you search you will find some options, you can post comments at those threads if you have questions or want recommendations or comparisons or want help with a specific library.
