When I get back I just might get the Tina Guo legato cello to use on a project because legato is all I will use probably.
For solo violin, I use the Bohemian and further to, may I say, perhaps a valid comment, vis a vi badly played by a student and slightly eerie sounding and would not be played by a real player ect ect - neither would just about any sample library known to man or beast. These are sample libraries and they're never going to be real.
Just like many here, last night I listened to some music on a continental tv programme that I wrote as a solo piano piece. The piano I used was something like NIs something or other. It doesn't sound like me playing a Steinway round at Abbey Road. It's not meant to. It's a sample library. But to the audience watching the programme it sounds like a piano being played in the background during dialogue and in the foreground when no dialogue. It's not an issue for an audience.
If you want real and it's important to you, do what Daryl does and go and book a studio full of real musicians and don't expect sample libraries to behave the same way.
