Soundwise they both sound similar, but the issue with the legato bumps in V2 makes it stand out. It's incredible what Spitfire achieved with a 49€ lib in Soaring High Strings. The only place where I can see that V1 & V2 AROSS (playing together) can outshine Soaring is in the medium speed legato phrases at softer dynamics.

Those Soaring Strings do sound absolutely gorgeous here, I have to say

[@c-c-laurin-lenschow]

Yes - it's a great little library!

The runs sound much better with high soaring strings.

[@ASX2001]

Sounds as if Soaring Strings have more "heart and desire", while they keep the ARO SymStrings more neutral, which is ok. But even the runs are better with Soaring Strings!

i dont know what it is but both sound a bit synthetic... dont know why!
And the backround there is a frequency one octave down from the note being played which i dont hear in normal recordings from there...

Soaring High strings for 49$ wins ;)
