Not sure what you mean when you say it sounds dry? Listening to it on my speakers, it sounds like it has plenty of reverb. I feel that if it has too much reverb, it won't have a certain "presence" in the soundtrack. But maybe you're right; I'll try adding some reverb and see how it sounds. Right now I have the Space Designer preset on "Sound Stage 12."
Nigel, the instruments were included with Logic, and I believe they're derived from the Apple Jampacks for Garageband (not top-notch quality). That's why I mention possibly getting some plug-ins (Vienna Symphonic, East West/Quantum Leap), because even with reverb, some of these samples still aren't convincing. There are certain areas in the string section I avoided using (the higher range) because they would start to sound electronic.
TheHarrowing: yeah, I was just going for a general action movie sound. I did not want to include any snare drums or other things associated with war films.
