You can use the Garritan Personal Orchestra with Band-in-a-Box ® in the same way, but this would be less common because the Jazz & Big Band has more of the sounds that Band-in-a-Box ® styles use (such as Drum kits, Guitar, and Sax), whereas the Personal Orchestra library contains instruments specifically for orchestral arrangements. There are fewer Band-in-a-Box ® styles that use only orchestral sounds, although there are some Classical styles like this. You can use the DXi or VSTi plugin or stand-alone version.
