CineStrings

This is really an improvement compared to the free Muse Sounds library. The only drawback with this library is the limited articulations every instrument has, but this could be solved with the release of the Strings PRO library or something like that (do not replace it but complement it). The other BIG PROBLEM with this and ANY PAID LIBRARY in MUSESCORE is that when the server gets disconnected (seems to happen when there's an upgrade for Musescore or Museghub for example) or when you get logged out of the app, YOU CAN'T USE ANY PAID LIBRARY, so when you work on a project all the instruments go back to the BASIC MIDI sounds which are awful. Please FIX THIS, it doesn't happen with the free libraries it's very counterproductive. I'll keep posting about this for every library I own until you resolve it.

I wish the strings had more vibrato, please fix this.

Don't get me wrong, the sound quality itself is wonderful. But the legatos and dynamics do NOT work well. A lot of thought and care seemed to be put into MuseStrings but it seems with all these paid releases (Spitfire, Berlin Strings, etc.) that same level of care and thought put into how the samples actually WORK in MuseScore is not found here, nor in any of the other paid sound libraries. For most people who write actual music with moving, lyrical lines, expressive phrasing and dynamics, these libraries are sadly at the time of this review unusable. Not enough work has been done yet to make playback sound natural. The free MuseStrings library on the other hand DOES sound natural and works well in most cases, and I've come to appreciate it more now that I've tried these. Until these libraries are fixed, just stick with MuseStrings. They're not ready yet, but MuseStrings is.

It never fails, if you want to quickly check a string library, throw in an ostinato staccato passage at a quick (yet realistic) tempo and listen to it come undone. This library is no exception. It does shine, however, with slower more expressive music. Also, volume does not seem to be balanced properly across the string family; there are times I have to mark passages a dynamic level higher than the other strings, and that's not right. Overall, not very impressed. Big let down. I'll stick to MuseStrings for now.

Overall, this is okay. When notes are slow and the music is much more expressive this package really shines...but I tend to write faster music and this package fails in every aspect in that department. The tremolos sound terrible, all fast notes are basically mushed together or non existent. Wish I could recommend this sound library to others.

I would love having Sul pont in all sections along with sul pont trem, then it will be an excellent library !
