As the subject says, what are you guys using for your string sounds? What program does a good job of realistic enough sounding strings which will be in context of a rock mix? Thanks guys!

I use the East West libraries but I doubt they do well in a fock mix. Never tried it. 

What about them do you think would t work in a rock mix?

Garritan Personal Orchestra. I also use great old GigaSamples that I access with G-Player.

I don't think it matters its how you model the sounds and layer them. With the right reverb, you can get a good 3d shaped sounding strings.

 
My violin and double bass, sorry couldn’t resist. :-)

Depends on what you are trying to achieve. If you need lush legato strings - consider Miroslav Philharmonic. Also you can currently get Sonivox strings with a good discount. These have multiple articulations and are played with some kind of "rock attitude" for the lack of better description. Sonokinetic Ostinato Strings or NI Session Strings have unique phrase engines and are easy to use, providing great results. If you have ST3, there are some sweet strings too.

I agree with dappa1.   The heart of Rock is the Guitar and Bass... the other strings mere trim.

Guitar, Drums, and bass. Or if you are a genius just drums and vocals.
