As I said, by looking in the samples folder.
Thanks, but I’m looking for further clarification. Were there specifically different transition samples in the 1st desk violin legato than the viola legatos?

Ah, I thought you owned the library and could look for yourself. Yes, there's the same fast and fast runs transitions for the cello, as well as ricochet legato, which I'm not sure what they will use for. The bass only has fingered legato, and everything else have what's already released. And to answer your question, no, but the fast and fast runs transitions are only in the virtuoso violin and the cello. So as I said, they have the material to release a cello patch like the virtuoso violin, and a simple bass legato, and that's it. Which is still pretty impressive, I just wish the viola had received the same love with fast transitions. Maybe because it sounds so good, maybe because I'm a violist and write a lot for viola.
Hi Ben,Hi, hot off the press, here's a patch that should fix the issue for you. Please don't delete the old patch in case you need it for any reason.
Although I can get some great results after some clever programming with this library, I’m also experiencing some issues with various patches in particular notes.
I’m writing them all in a notebook so I can submit a ticket to SA.
Btw had a good laugh with your post - “like the player and his violin got electrocuted or so”
If you have time please share which notes on violin b you’re having trouble with so I can add to my notes if they are not there yet.
Sometimes I hear this and sometimes I don't, but I haven't been able to pin down when it happens. I don't know if it is only certain notes, or certain dynamic layers or what. Like the transition between nonvib and vib in general, I don't find it to be a problem when the violin is part of an ensemble and not overly exposed, presumably because the ensemble helps mask it. I have more problems with the cello, which I feel like I have to fight with a lot more.when I use the vibrato cc there’s always a point where I hear phasing and more than one violin.
Because the library is very usable as it is! And some of the issues, like the way the vibrato works or the bumpiness of the transitions between dynamic layers, are part of the design of the instrument, consequences of optimizing other things in the library. @ism has a lot of good commentary on this sprinkled throughout the forum.So, one can say, this is more than a buggy library. Which is sad and I can't understand why such a great company like spitfire audio is releasing such an "unfinished" thing. Again I love the overall sound of this but these bugs are really annoying. Hopefully they'll fix it asap!
As I understand it, only the cello has the samples to make a performance patch that works the same way as the violin.For now I’ve been having some good results with the progressive vibrato set by velocity in the violin virtuoso performance patch, but yeah I wish this option existed for all performance patches too or even the sustains like you mention. Those progressive vibrato sustains have a cool sound to them.
