...So it is not logical to do...

Don't muddy the waters by bringing logic into the equation. GAS is OCD. Logic doesn't enter into it.
 
The real question is: how much fun can you buy for 599,00 €? Is there perhaps somewhere else where you might find a better cost:fun ratio?
 
If more articulations is your motivation, consider buying into a different franchise altogether and layering another vendor's instruments with what you've already got. Spitfire would be a good place to start.
 

Thanks.

Is that what the Hollywood writers use mostly?

Yeah it would be nice to have something great.
I love the NI because the integration of the Komplete Keyboard.
But i bet another "better" sounding orchestral bank would be as good. I dont use the display on those sounds anyways. Just the expression and articulation change on the keyboard.

Will look for this now...

It's not what they use but how they use it.  Komplete is really a lot of bloat.  NI's orchestra libraries are like cheap beer compared to other offerings.
 
 EastWest Hollywood Orchestra Gold when on sale is hard to beat.  It's not always about the sound as much as mastering a library. 
  

This guy is one of those, having tonns of sample packs.
 

 
 
 
He has a cool setup.
 
But no Komplete Orchestras...

I see your point.
 
What i like about the ones in the Koplete Ultimate 11/12, is that they don’t have too much of a sound. For Just orchestra, its to thin, not enough meet. But together with a band, it blends nicely in. Like “pre killed" EQ wise to blend.
 
But Yeah. I need some more.
 
EeasWest sounds good.
And yeah. Learning how to program it to sound as an orchestra is a life long journey. I’m not good at all.

Yeah. I see that.
 
But there is allot of benefits about going Komplete. I then get the full new Kontakt 6, SYMPHONY SERIES, TRK-01, SESSION GUITARIST – ELECTRIC SUNBURST, SESSION GUITARIST – STRUMMED ACOUSTIC 2, THRILL, KINETIC TOYS, DISCOVERY SERIES: MIDDLE EAST…
 
But I was certain of going for the Hollywood Orchestra or the Diamond Symphony Orchestra, and the more I read and se and hears samples and review, I get more insecure.
 
I guess they all are good enough, but they all depend on you knowing how to use them. If not, you cant make the best sample pack sound “good”.
 
And I am not the best. Still learning all I can.
