Ok, bit of a rant. Heat of the moment. Will probably retract later.
...but
Been working on a string quartet using spritfire solo strings. I have been a defender of this library because I really do think it sounds great but there is something deeply wrong with this library. The biggest issue is that randomly whole sections will stop sounding. If I drop any other instrument on the midi track it plays fine. When I put SSS back in it plays fine...for a few minutes...and then stops making any sound. Other sections on the same track continue to work. This happens in random sections so you never know what part of your track is going to disappear. The behavior of recorded tracks also changes randomly with no input from me. All of a sudden it will be quieter, louder, dissaper, notes will be cut off, etc. I have never experienced such a nightmare of programming. I am no longer making music I am triaging, putting out fires, etc. If I had another solo strings library I would just move on.
Ok, I feel better.
One more try.
