Well if it’s in the same direction as Session Strings 1 then it’s more for pop, R&B etc. Not so much though for „real“ Orchestral Work.THX for heads-up!Very timely with imminent decisions on many current promos/releases.

Must say the interface is much better, there's much more functionality and articulations. Pretty great update, actually. Full-blown mixer with all sorts of effects, you can tweak the sound quite well.

Will want to see some reactions from early-adopters, as full writeup seems very comprehensive ? There is the option to go with SS 2 Pre-order and decide Pro later …. aarrgh June 6 ?

Looking forward to pick it up with my K12U update
Photos and all looks really promising. Though it looks like a lot of scripting...
Were you involved in the development @EvilDragon ?

Based on the same sample set as the original, if I read the site correctly?

So maybe we can expect a June fire sale on Komplete 11...

Can't know if they do all "in-house"

"The entire sample collection has been remixed for a contemporary sound. "
"Building on the immensely popular SESSION STRINGS products, SESSION STRINGS 2 and SESSION STRINGS PRO 2 combine a refreshed sound with a newly designed, modern interface"
Doesn't clearly state that it's the same sample set, but it sounds a little like it
Could be interpreted in both ways imo

For the types of productions SSP is intended for, it doesn't need to blow your mind...

Action Strings were produced by a different company (Dynamedion, vs e-instruments), that's why it sounds quite different. Also a different orchestra in different location.

I never heard such a bunch of ugly demotracks like on the product page :-( And the walkthrough veils more than it reveals. Early adopters opinions indeed are very welcome.
I have SS 1 in most of my string stacks since they give a very solid, playable and "rosiny" quality to the sound. I have to add the lush part though by adding other strings .-) But I once heard a wonderfull composition on youtube using SS1 for a baroque tune and it sounded quite realistic (and did not only consist of rapid shorts, which is most often a homerun) SS2 could be a winner... but not at first glance .
