In a studio situation the importance of the acoustic environment
is greatly diminished. You can treat each section of the band as a
separate entity and place it in the acoustic of youe choice, by use
of reverb.So you can have The Manchester Free Trade Hall for
the brass, and the V+A for the woodwinds.
You would put the brass in a double room with the woodwind in the
bathroom.
The Free Trade Hall has been a hotel for years.

It was a great venue - the scene of many fine Halle Orchestra
projects.The front of the building was splendid. Was it completely
demolished?

The facade is still there. It's the Radisson Edwardian Hotel now.
I misspent my youth there listening to James Loughran and the Hallé.
