What's new

So, what is the consensus on 8dio's Intimate Strings?

A summary of what I've read on it seems to be that it is decent for pop strings and smaller studio strings, has decent programming (with a few exceptions in the legato, could be ironed out but who knows), but it just doesn't excite a lot of people for some reason?
 
With the name, "Intimate Strings" I thought it might be good for my ambient new-age type stuff, but perhaps they were going more after the pop rock intimate angle.
 
I have it and like it for its dry raw tone and its legato with well balanced vibrato...but that's just it for me...the other articulations specially the shorts are almost useless to me as their attack & release have been heavily trimmed which makes them only useful for pop. If that wasn't the case, the library would have actually been very versatile and fit for any style IMO. In all cases you won't be dissapointed for what it is specially if you get it with the discount price. And if even if you got disappointed, remember that it is a very "intimate" library afterall...so it will hug you
 
Anyone dare to brave a user demo for us? I'm curious too? Like post a solo track of each section playing the same melody, different octaves? Mild expression? Like the melody from E.T. or something? Just a "quick" taste of copy paste?
Don't spend more than 5mins on it- we will all be grateful and honored! Thx a million in advance : )
