Hi Eric great work on road to glory. What orchestra Samples do you use? I'm looking for some advice on what to buy. Thanks.

Hi Adam! I have been using Cinematic Strings 2.0 BUT I completely advise looking into 8DIO's Adagietto. It is the best string library I have heard thus far for such an attractive price. There are other nice libraries like LASS and Symphobia but they are heavily expensive. LASS does have a LITE version that is the same price as Cinematic Strings and Adagietto. It does depend on your style though. Adagietto is perfect for cinematic cues while LASS may be good for more John William style--more symphonic/classical. What I love about Adagietto is that you can have your strings have mutes on them. I haven't seen that anywhere else. Then finally Symphobia, it is a hefty library on cost but if you can afford it, that would be the best option probably. It has a great tone and string effects.

I threw out many libraries at you but look at Adagietto and LASS LITE and see what fits your style. If you want to, you can check out what I use, Cinematic Strings, but I don't heavily advise it. It uses lots of RAM and takes awhile to load the samples. Like Hollywood Strings. If you've thought about getting that library...don't. I'm a huge fan of Thomas Bergersen but that library has many issues.

I hope this helped and thank you for your comment! Best of luck composing!
