Spitfire Symphonic Orchestra. It's not bad, but have not found it at the level of VSL or OT and it was too expensive.
Iconica Opus. Despite being a joint Steinberg-OT project, I just haven't found this very playable. The Halion player is likely part of the reason.
Cinematic Studio Solo Strings. So much vibrato, huge footprint, and not nearly as playable as I'd like.
SWAM Violin and Cello. I'd like to think this was just operator error, but I have not been able to get the tone (versus the technique) anywhere near as realistic as good sample based libraries.
(Disclaimer: I like to play VIs as actual instruments. Carefully programmed sound possibilities are less significant to me than what it "feels" like as a player.)
