Rob-- I liked the mood of the piece you posted very much. Now back to the topic at hand...
Herb-- perhaps you could do a 1 session test to see if you can capture this sound that everyone is longing for. Maybe just an octave and a half of legato playing. Learn what you can from that session. Get some feedback from your loyal users about the results of that session. And then plan a large and comprehensive series of sessions to get the job done right.
I agree with others that for me this is the single most important set of samples that I still don't have!
Best,
Jay
Thanks Jay. For this section (cue) of the project this worked fine - but reprising this later on I just really needed to step up the 'strings crying' factor (so hopefully the audience crys along with them [:D] . While the Director was pleased with what I gave him (horns and Clar doing this) - I think it could have been so much better with soaring, yet warm, silky triple octave high strings.
I really like the idea of the session - come back to the users for comments. Of course, the challenge is one of proprietary Intel. Not sure how to get a discussion going 'privately' other then - to be a part of the discussion one would have to have at least so many VSL titles (but if I was the competition, I would buy all that was needed, use a bogus name and find out 'how to do it right'. Dang - wish I hadn't of given the idea [8-)]
Seriously - there has to be a way to get us lowly users (in the trenches using this material each and every day) involved in the development.
Just thinking, I personally would support beta testing this out AND THEN paying for it just like everyone else - it means this much to me personally!!!
