So I'm pretty new to the Mac recording world. I'm testing out logic and dp...I'm about to invest in an library instrument sampler. The guy at guitar center suggested sampletankand kontakt, however listening to some of their samples online...I'm not completely sold on the orchestral sections...they still sound too sampled and not very authentic. I'm looking for the most realistic sounding library with an emphasis on strings and piano. I listened to some GigaStudio stuff and it sounded really good, but then I read some reviews that definitely changed my mind. Any advice?

I've been very pleased with Kontakt 2 and the big sample library that came with it. I have EWQL Gold as well, and it's great, but I find myself going to the Kontakt Vienna sounds even more, because Gold has that ambience that's difficult to get rid of if you don't want it. FWIW over on the motumac group I was advised that no single orchestral library really covers all the bases, and maybe that's true....
