difference between strings in EWQL symphonic orchestra Gold

Post by Gate 13 »

Hello,
I am using the string patches from EWQL symphonic orchestra Gold and I am not satisfied at all with the sound.
I would like to tell me honestly if it is worthy buying the Hollywood strings...
does it make a big difference? Is it really worthy for the money you spend?
Can anyone with both libraries give me some kind of feedback?
I would greatly appreciate. Thank you

Check out LA Scoring Strings (LASS). See what you think of their demos. The learning curve (for me, anyway) was/is pretty steep.
