I'm an orchestrator, been considering buying into VSL for a while now. But each time I visit the website I see new options, new packages, and it's all a bit confusing... Horizon series, Special Edition, Ensemble, Orchestral Cube, Performance Tool, EXS compatibility (or not)... it's all a bit too much... So I'm hoping someone can explain the different "categories" of VSL so that I can focus on the right package(s) for my needs. Here's my setup and my needs:
PPC Quad, tons of RAM and disk space, Logic 7 and Logic 8
I'd like to use EXS-24 for sample playback but will consider other sample plugs if need be
I'd like to use the Performance Tool
Now, I've got a ton of other libraries, but here's what I'm looking for specifically from VSL:
• strings that are good for Baroque and Classical playing (need "round robin" for repeated notes)
• string sections that offer modwheel control of brightness (pp - ff)
• [i]solo[/i] horns with modwheel control of swells
• ability to construct string sections of different #'s of players
Thanks.
