How does this compare to Diamond Orchestra?

Thanks,

Diamond Orchestra has several section sizes -- including solo -- for many of the instruments. Virtuoso Ensembles has one section size for the strings and brass and solo patches for the woodwinds. They are for use in very different situations. You might use Virtuoso Ensembles while composing/arranging and then Diamond for recording.

The user interfaces are also very different. Virtuoso Ensembles features a clever way to assign instrument sections to note ranges (which can overlap). Diamond features a clever way to change section sizes, and an intimidating array of articulation switches. And so on.

What I don't know is whether the raw samples in Virtuoso Ensembles are a subset of those in Diamond, or are new recordings. Can anyone help out with that question?

The answer is in the manual and I missed it:
Are the samples in Virtuoso Ensembles different than other Kirk Hunter libraries?

Yes with the exception of the piano and the tympani. HOWEVER, the programming in these instruments is SO enhanced that it creates a difference so distinct as to render these instruments completely unique.

Hat tip to the person on VI-Control who found this for me.
