This comparison between Strezov Sampling's Afflatus and Cinematic Studio Strings presents the same track realized with four different virtual string ensembles. Let me know in the comments which one you like best!
1. Afflatus "Scene d'Amour", 2. Afflatus "Lush Strings", 3. Afflatus "Minimalist Strings", and 4. Cinematic Studio Strings.
Since Afflatus "Scene d'Amour" does not have its own bass section, I used the basses from Minimalist Strings to complete the ensemble. Due to the fact that every library responds differently to the same midi data, I adjusted the midi automation according to each library.
The same external reverb was used for all versions: LiquidSonics Seventh Heaven (Scoring Stage). The reverb for the final chord is Eventide Blackhole.
