To be clear, the NP strings aren’t atrocious, but it’s dramatic how much worse they are compared to the woodwinds and brass. Unfortunately, Dorico does not export midi+pitchbend, so for microtonal music you can’t really export to a DAW to work with different libraries and use a different editing environment, so it’ll all have to happen in Dorico–at least until mixdown as audio tracks. I also need to dedicate myself somewhat to learning how to edit the note data to get more human sounding performances–I’m an amateur, and working with microtones doesn’t exactly help with getting pieces read, so a good mockup is likely the best I’m to get for anything I can’t personally perform. I’m strongly considering ponying up for CSS solo strings or the Spitefire quartet. The reviews for the library have been positive and it’s excellent value. The Solo strings all have separate Vibrato depth control and around a dozen articulations. I’d like to keep this within the couple hundred dollars range if possible.įor that kind of price it may be worthwhile checking out. Ideally I’d like to get an expression map together so that I could mostly rely on the written notation, but for final mockups I’m willing to do some fine editing and key switching by hand (though this has to happen all in Dorico, since Dorico does not export midi+pitchbend). For example, I just posted this sketch yesterday. One important point for me is it must absolutely be able to perform without any vibrato and have accurate intonation–I use Dorico to write microtonal music in extended just intonation and very precise tuning and an absence of vibrato is necessary for me to accurately hear some of the intervals I’m targeting clearly. I’m currently using Noteperformer, which is considerably better than the included HALion library, but while the woodwinds and brass are surprisingly good, the strings are the weak point. Hello everyone, looking for some advise on purchasing a better solo strings VST.
