I think since we have the big band horns(and I love them a lot), I think it's time to get those nice lush warm string sounds like you hear likeon Bing Crosby records and hits from the 40s . Please have them recorded with ribbion mics so we get nice a nice pleasing tone that fit well in ballads, jazz, soundtracks, and even holiday songs. Please consider this with the upcoming 2017 for Mac, and an update for Winodws. I always buy the Audiophile edtion for all the new Real Tracks.

+1 for Strings RealTracks AND super MIDI tracks.

The BIG advantage being that Super MIDI Tracks can be edited to fit a particular song.

Well, that's the trick to 'selling' it, innit. I mean, it would just be a jumbled mess if they were all blasting away on top of each other the whole time laugh

Anyway, this hopefully showcases the concept and how cool it could sound.

Yep, I love the "big band" sound and it would be so nice to have strings/brass/winds playing a number of different big band riffs. I would love that.

I've updated that demo, btw, so now the sections of strings & crooner don't always come in at the same bars on each chorus, for a more lifelike variety.

I have to say that's being quite pedantic (I know english isn't your first language - look it up)! whistle

I'm not trying to be argumentative here, but I honestly don't see (hear) a significant difference smirk
