Thanks alot for your effort Ian!
plate 1 are the chasseurs. It is possible that the minifigs are meant to be the chasseurs but I am trying to find out if there are a uniform fit for the guard grenadiers band
plate 2-4: they all have the feathers at the bottom of the plume. The minifigs dont.
plate 5: number 12 is a close match although there are no fringe on the bicorn
plate 6: I think number 4 s a very good match – thank you.
I have no sources available but chatting to chatgpt I found out that
- Lapels changed from scarlet to white in full dress, but remained scarlet in service/campaign dress**.
- A tuft was added at the base of the plume **for full dress; in campaign/service only senior musicians kept it.
- After 1808 the uniforms became progressively more heavily laced and decorated, especially in full dress.
- plume red, although some senior bandmembers had a white plume
After the help with the plates and the ai chat, I have come up with the following painting guide for the 1809 campaign, band of the guard grenadiers a pied.

If anyone has knowledge diverting from this compiled information – please participate here and I will create a table of 1809 campaign band uniform:)
