    Have you tried the Session Strings Pro? That articulator thingy is really great. Looks like they've taken it a step further with this one. Wonder if they can be played without the phrases though:p

    I just bought Komplete 8 this year. But now ... why do I suddenly feel so inkomplete without this new thing? I feel an urge to get out a charge card and just charge forward. However, I might just wait, if I can find the willpower.

    I'd better hold my foot on the brake just in case Action Strings PRO comes out.

    '154 phrases'. I thought of a few more choice phrases when I saw the price. Nice sound though.

    Can they do anything OTHER than 16th note marcatto/stacatto patterns??  That's all I heard.

    Could this be a one trick pony with only two legs? I'm curious if anyone has bought this and has a brief review of its benefits or shortcomings. It's too expensive to buy on impulse. 

    How well does it fit in a mix? What kinds of variety are included in these 154 phrases?

    (n)ot (i) interested , solely because they like discontinuing things at short notice.. and making things not backward compatible


    other such libs are available, and there more likely to get my money

    Doesn't NI usually have some big discounts coming up during the holidays?

    Danial James did an hour long demo/review of Action Strings which is just phenomenal... I urge you to check it out.  He is an amazing composer and really shows how to integrate this into a larger orchestral package.

    His review is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4LoB5ieUxY
