    Me too Christian. We really need some good sounding Cellos at last. [:)]

    I've mixed in VSL cellos with a real orchestra and they sounded great so that means they're at least "good". [:)]

    ....no VIP price for the Strings 1 e 2 owner ? [H]

    The Appassionata Strings are considered a seperate collection as in Epic Horns (is my understanding) so I don't think there's an upgrade path.

    Where can I find more info on this package? I know that it's been available only to Pro owners but as a separate collection... Price, release date, etc...

    Can one imagine a 'triple octave' sweeping string line with Vln, VA and especially the Cellos. [[;)]]

    Not familiar with the "Extended Library". What's the difference...? Must be a lot since its price is almost identical to the main Appassionata library.

    How will this differ from Orchestral Strings 1 and 2? Is this a more "epic, film score" -sounding string library? Will there be a solo violin as well?

    According to the blurb, the sections are much bigger.

    Regarding the sounds from what I hear in the Appassionata Violins there is much more of a concentration on over-the-top expressiveness and a few dubious things like out-of-tune notes. However, unlike some other libraries, these notes are out-of-tune by design. [:D]
