I've been trying to figure out how to get WIVI for a while now, do you have any idea where it can be bought now if it can even be bought?

This thread has been fascinating! I've caught up listening to all the demos over the past few days - curious to try my hand in a couple weeks when I have some days off.
I noticed the original posted mp3 was a different version than I'm used to. Attached is the "By Request" version which has a bit more definition and punch overall. Also posting the relevant score snippet for folks who feel that can help guide them.

Unfortunately it seems it's missing a lot of the features that make WIVI Physical modelling so great. I wonder if they offer resales on their licenses, maybe the WIVI stuff will be worth more used than the original price since it's now rare.it's the band edition.. it has brass... not sure how good this one is, compared to the other wivi (that is not available anymore: the non "band" version)| bestservice.com | EN

@Rob's demo is seriously impressive, that's on a similar level as Samplemodeling Brass.

**Don't know if this is considered marketing or something. It's a free product after all, as well as our only product. (for now at least..) But please remove this if inappropriate!**
I was kind of hoping someone here would consider giving our Solo Trumpet a go for the trumpet parts, but since no one has done it so far, I did it myself.
Since the instrument is not a a2/a3 instrument, I doubled up the 1st part with the classic sample-transposing-trick, together with some track delay.. and some other stuff. The 2nd and, for a few notes, 3rd part are just normal instances of the patch.
Hope you like it! This really felt like a pretty tricky piece to program. A good exercise for sure!

This reference sounds a bit more like my memory, thanks!
It was the first trumpet I tried! I saw how much work it would take to finish though and haven’t posted yet. Sounds good! Especially for free!!**Don't know if this is considered marketing or something. It's a free product after all, as well as our only product. (for now at least..)

Thanks for sharing! How are you liking Century Brass? How did you find the programming of it to be?I gave this a try with Century Brass (first time I use this library - I am noob btw

Surprised nobody has posted a version with Hollywood Brass (OPUS), so here's my take on it.
OPUS is a great sample player, but I do wish there was a way to lock round robins somehow (maybe there is?). The repetition samples were unusable for me (I think they sound really strange...like broken?), so I relied on staccatissimo double tongue, but not every round robin gave me the tightness I was looking for.

I got it recently (with a super discounted opportunity btw) and this is the first time I use it, so I am not too familiar with it yet. This is probably not the easiest challenge to start with, at least for me
so I am sure some more expert hands could do much better.In the example I posted above Century Brass sounds a bit thin to my ears, and the final chords also sound a bit synthy to me, but again it's probably my fault. I had to move repetitions (double tongue) slightly ahead to have them finish on time, and you can likely hear it. I had to do some layering, but this is true also for CineBrass that I have just tried now for comparison
Perhaps I could try this with BBCSO Pro as well (I know, I know its limitations
)

Woke up a little too early this morning, but saw this thread and wanted to give it a go. Like many, I struggled. I think my shorts in the first half are too punchy but I am fairly pleased with the second half (as accompanied w/ some perc). Anyways, this was a lot of fun!

Which library did you use?

A mix of Cinesamples, AROOF, Cinematic Studio Brass, and Adventure Brass.

Hope it's not cheating, but I was excited by what I got the first 2 measures to sound like with INFINITE BRASS and wanted to post.
FYI I think the midi file has some wrong notes in it - I'll try to paste a version with all cc info stripped (and put into 4 Tpt, 4 Hn, 4 Tbn + 1 Tuba format).
All feedback welcome.

Not cheating - looking forward to hearing the rest!
The MIDI file I posted is directly from the opening of the concert score. It isn't a transcription by ear. But I might've sightread something wrong!
