Try some of the chamber works provided with some issues of 'BBC Music
Magazine'. They vary, but some are pretty good. The best are
essentially an LPCM link from Radio 3 with minimal furtling along the
way.


Thanks - I'll have a look/listen.


Like for like, it is easier to position instruments from a decent
recording the fewer there are. So a well recorded string quartet is a good
starting point.

When someone says they can position every single instrument in an
orchestra, take it with a pinch of salt.
