Just want to jump in here to say that, if you're mainly concerned about
better string sounds, then there is a pack for Dimension Pro that does a
much better job than the built in sounds. Digital Sound Factory Studio
Orchestra. It isn't supposed to have all of the articulations of a
orchestral scoring library. It is supposed to sound like what happens when
orchestral players are called in to do overdubs for pop tracks. Very good
sections. Not so good solos. Lots of layers, too, which is nice, as most of
the layers built in to Dimension Pro are all too electronic. If you want
nice keys+strings, voices+bells, and other combos like that, then this pack
has the high quality versions.

Phil wrote, "Will respectfully agree to disagree. If you want good
orchestral sounds the Garritan Personal Orchestra is fantastic! Way better
than Dimension Pro."
Steve replied, "That's not very respectful to Dimension Pro lol"
Phil wrote, "The strings on Dimension Pro are good but the Garritan ones are
in a different league again. I purchased it just for the strings but, if I
were into orchestral stuff, I would purchase it for that as nothing else
comes close. I don't use orchestral stuff much here however, I will be
using the strings on some of my backing tracks in the future. In fact, I
may even revoice some of the tracks that I have with the Garritan strings.
Also, playing them is a dream. They just respond as you would expect."
Steve Replied, "Phil, I think we should put Dimension Pro and Garritan to
the test. we both know how to arrange and right all kinds of music so we are
not going personally head to head. Lets simply choose a classic song of our
own choice so everyone on the forum can recognise the song, it will be
interesting to see which Strings the forum prefer.
I think we should use one or two other instruments (no drums though) just
instruments to give the song some colour, a verse and chorus will do.
What do you think?
