Hmmm. Not that I know of. Most of the sound designers got excited about nice orchestral libraries when they had a lot of space for large high quality sounds. That was when they could produce sounds that were a large improvement over what is built in, not just a little step up. The ES isn't top knotch orchestrally, but things like strings and winds are pretty damn good. The XS gave 1GB of memory to work with. You can do a lot with that, though it takes some long ass time like 40 minutes to load all of that in. There is a big one coming for the XF that uses all 2GB of flash. Of course, that means that it is one of those situations where you load it up, and it takes over your whole board. You basically load that in if you plan to be doing lots of that sort of music. You can, of course, switch it out when you're working on other projects, but loading 2GB in to flash memory takes over an hour, so you don't want to switch back and forth all of the time. If you just want a few voices, though, you can just load them in. Like, if you want the better strings, you can load the strings voices in to a slot in your user banks, and still keep all of your other voices/samples. You don't have to load in the entire library, though you can, if you want.
