Sorry I dont understand.

I bought app strigs standard and extended.

So you mean If I by the standard App stings II I get the rest of App stings II .

Meaning I get he extended if i by the Standard first.....So the toatl coast for App I and Ii is $1920.00

therefore, I get $185.00 extended app strings II for free....?

Sounds great. A nice surprise. Good luck  [:)]

{Wish  it wasn't clashing with Christmas though, can't afford to buy right now to take advantage of the VIP special}

Hi Mazeka,

the Appassionata Strings I&II are 2 seperate products. Each with a Standard Library and an Extended Library.

You decide what you get, but you will not get any Extended Library for free if you license "just" these 2 products.

Of course everything looks different if you take advantage of the Strings Bundle Holiday offer.

You will get 1 Extended Library of your choice fore free (of course you need the corresponding Standard Library first).

Best,

Paul

 Thanks paul for the help.

So When I by App strings II satnadard I get the exstended for free..... ok.

Do you mean if I get lets say Chambers strings stand I get the extended for free.....? or this just applies to App 

Mazeka,

I´m afraid that this is a misunderstanding.

Here is a link to the Special Holiday Offer, that will make things clearer.

Best regards,

Paul

I would love to hear some more stuff done with this set... both official or unofficial demos will do ;)

It's funny because I'm just orching a con sordino cue that's going to orchestra in February and I suppose I'm really looking forward to getting these two App string libraries. I have a colleague and friend who is doing a film right now and another one shortly after that has App strings I and tells me they're great in the right context but can be sometimes too big????!??

I'm with Daryl on this one.   On this current film I have found a winning combination of solo strings and A1.   The trick is the right mix (never a hard rule - ALWAYS cue dependent.)  Pretty basic though -  the more 'intimate' it needs to be -  the higher the solo string(s) are in the mix. 

Should have my A2 in the morning - really looking forward to using these on THIS project.

I agree that is a good idea on the layering of solo vn with App vns.  They are both molto espressivo sounding and reinforce each other beautifully. This would NOT happen if you layered Orch Violins, which would tend to "even out" the sound and make it less espress.   However I do not route one track to multiple destinations, because it is very good to mess up the timing. That adds immensely to the realism and oddly the feeling of espressivo.  Though I can understand how you would want to play them all from one track on a hurried job.

BTW, I wish there was a "Resources" folder for App strings with single layer instruments.  Those are very useful  for creating custom layers and crossfades that have very different timbres and are extremely CPU-friendly.  Also a fringe benefit is you can use mod wheel to control two cells like in velocity crossfade, but still have attack velocity for instant tweaking of the levels.
