Each of these ensembles are expertly orchestrated so that you are playing the section itself instead of the individual instruments, but what instruments make up these sections?

Brass High: 3 Trumpets and 4 Horns
Brass Low: 2 Tenor Trombones, 2 Bass Trombones, 1 Contrabass Trombone and 3 Cimbassi
Brass Mid: 4 Horns and 2 Tenor Trombones
Strings: 18 First Violins, 16 Second Violins, 14 Violas, 12 Celli and 8 Basses
Woods High: 1 Piccolo, 3 Flutes, 3 Clarinets and 3 Oboes
Woods Low: Bass Clarinet, 2 Bassoons and Contrabassoon

Please note, this does not mean for instance that you can play 3 flutes in isolation with Woods High.nki but that there are 3 flutes recorded in the samples that make up that sound.
