This is a very good, comprehensive and reasonably priced library from Project Sam:

It's got standard orchestra ensembles, but also some useful textures like ethnic flutes, etc...

Hey Vienna guys - are you using Vienna Ensemble for multiple instruments, or using several instances (and tracks) for each? I just did a song doing the latter, and I really had to have the buffer size high (like 512 when I had about 6 Vienna tracks going).

Is it better to use the Vienna Ensemble?

OK, I´m looking into these three closer right now:

http://www.thomann.de/gb/east_west_s...old_plugin.htm

http://www.thomann.de/gb/east_west_s...a_platinum.htm

http://www.thomann.de/gb/east_west_s...platinum_b.htm

Can someone tell me what´s the diffrence between them? Especially the last two, which seem the same to me but the last one is more expensive? What does the platinum have what the gold one doesn´t?



As for the Vienna stuff, I found those two:

http://www.thomann.de/gb/vsl_vi90_sp...ition_sted.htm

http://www.thomann.de/gb/vsl_vi95_sp...on_plus_st.htm

Which one would be the one to start with? I also need something like the "USB Dongle" for that, could I also use my iLok? I´m afraid the answer will be no^^. But those are about the same principle right (Dongle and iLok)?


Also, those are VST plugins, I need RATS plugins, what do I do? I hope you can answer all these questions, so thanks
