Best video on these strings. Thanks. These also have a unique feature when playing all of the sections at the same time, the GUI separates the sections DIvisi style, and you can change the split points with the keyboard graphic slider. This is great for fast, one pass, studio strings in one pass that sound authentic without the doubling that happens in most single ensemble patches of most strings libraries. I don't know any other strings libraries that have this feature. $149 upgrade pricing if you own NI Studio Strings Pro is a steal for these.

I'm looking for an affordable VST with real sounding strings for pop/soul/rock type production. This is a really good review, and makes me think Session Strings Pro 2 is just what I need. I will start with the non-pro version first, see if it will do on ot's own. If not - upgrade! But these strigs sound so clear and clean, ansd many of the big, expensive VSTs sound like massive cinematic strings, which I fear would go not so well in a pop song...
