For years we've been using the Vienna Symphonic Library in Gigastudio for our orchestral stuff and it's been terrific. We just recently got the Vienna Special Edition which runs as its own VST and it sounds fantastic.
SI-String Section.exe. Cakewalk Studio Instruments include pre-recorded patterns played by ace session musicians so you can build sections for your songs, practice, or just have fun jamming along. Cakewalk studio instruments vsti v1 0 beat. 0 0 175.00 MB 0.
They've specifically developed it so that you can play it from a keyboard controller and still get realistic sounding lines. I was really impressed with the Special Edition, You can get started with it for $500, or get the whole Special Edition for around $2200. Or then go to their whole Super Package for $20,000!
The Vienna Instruments have a bit of a learning curve, but what they can do is amazing. Ultimately it depends on your budget. Starting with things like GPO and ermm others around that price range. Then they get to serious money thousands of dollars, loads of GB of sound etc. There are plenty of tricks to use to get a convincing sound though. Although getting session players in to play the parts is the best way after you have done the arrangement and then multi tracking them to get that organic / real sound. Edit: last year had a christmas sale.
Maybe Gary will this year again. So I would keep an eye on the site also and wait to see if he has one this year.
All very good, but from best to least expensive as listed. * * * * Garritan and Miroslav may be equal to one another. Another is Notion, but its library is integrated into its own notation software so its not really a library you can use with a DAW: * I like and use the EastWest product and I also use Notion quite a bit.

ORIGINAL: guylarge I'm looking to create some film music, and am wondering what YOU use to create string-section music? I primarily use EWQL (the version that uses the NI Kompakt engine, not the 'PLAY' engine) and/or Garritan. I also have some excellent string samples that were specifically formatted to be used on my Ensoniq ASR10 sampler/sequencer. Depending on the complexity of the desired sound I'm trying to affect, I'll sometimes mix combinations of various 'real' string sample sets (i.e, EWQL & Garritan) with synthesized string sounds and/or pads. Properly mixing the various combinations often results in a great sound that couldn't be achieved by using only one program. The obvious problem is that using a MIDI keyboard to play strings is the lack of smooth transition from note to note / chord to chord, so really that would be the biggest selling point for me. One of the major factors in creating 'realistic' string parts in the MIDI world is to think like a string player.
In most cases, play single note lines for each instrument. Record them on individual tracks.
Other than 'double stops' (most commonly a root and fifth interval, typically assigned to cello and/or viola to place an emphasis on the final part of an ending phrase) individual string players (Violin I, Violin II, Viola I, Viola II, Cello I, Cello II, etc.,) are rarely presented with arrangements that require them to play a 'chord'.The same principle can be applied to getting realistic horn tracks when using MIDI software sampled sounds. It can be (and frequently is) a lot of work and very time-consuming but the results can be very satisfactory. ORIGINAL: guylarge Hello everyone, happy Friday to you.
