Nice non-Kontakt strings

Post by byllsong » Fri Jun 26, 2020 8:41 am

I'm in the market for nice string to accompany piano pieces, nothing elaborate, but should sound real.
Non- Kontakt.
Thanks
Billy

You could do a lot worse than trying the BBC Symphony Orchestra which runs as it's own virtual instrument without Kontakt

There is a FREE basic version available called the DISCOVER edition if you are prepared to answer a questionarre and wait 2 weeks.

Thanks guys,
I filled out the questionnaire. I'll see how that goes as I continue my quest.

Hi, guys
Got my free Spitfire BBC Discover Orchestra yesterday.
I'll have a great weekend trying to be John Williams.
Thanks for pointing the way. :D
