Kirk Hunter | Concert Strings II with non-string elements of Diamond/Ruby | By just playing a keyswitch, you can instantly change section sizes. The three demos in this row use the exact same cue, but each uses a different division by simply hitting a different keyswitch |
| Summer | Vivaldi | Concert Strings II | This piece shows the various section sizes all used together and separately. Additionally, it demonstrates a broad scope of expression ranging from warm and intimate to big, bold and aggressive.. |
| Studio Violins Heavy Vibrato | Kirk Hunter | Studio Strings (included in Diamond and Ruby) | These use the heavier vibrato. Of course all levels of vibrato are possible. |
| Studio Violins Light Vibrato | Kirk Hunter | Studio Strings (included in Diamond and Ruby) | These use light vibrato. Of course all levels of vibrato are possible. |

| Pachelbel Canon in D (abridged) | Johann Pachelbel | Chamber Strings (included in Diamond and Emerald) | attacks can be heard in the Vivaldi "Winter demo below. This arrangement for 1st and 2nd Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass. |
| Four Seasons - Winter | Vivaldi | Chamber Strings (included in Diamond and Emerald) | his demo features the "Polyphonic Round Robin in Kontakt 2. You'll notice how well fast repeated notes play without sounding robotic. I substitued the solo violin normally heard in the piece with chamber violins so you could really hear the fast articulations at work. This is NOT a perfect rendition. I just put something together a long time ago with "Winter" in mind never intending to do the piece exactly as written. |
