Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Hi.
Wonder if the collective wisdom here can advise me.
I am after some Orchestral String Harmonics Patches.
I have numerous string patches but am missing the harmonics that  
string players can play.

Anyone recommend a good set?

Now free is best (as I am currently a student (even though I am an old  
fart <grin>) )  but I would be happy to buy if there is no other  
choice and the price was right..


I am also looking for other Orchestral Instrument extended techniques  
as patches.  But that can be far more esoteric so will not ask  
specifically about them - maybe only ask for genera comments about  
availability.

I am needing to write some music for contemporary orchestral  
performers and want to write some with  midi based tracks as a  
"backing track" or as the term goes  " live performer and tape".  The  
issue is I have no real extended technique patches..
Now I can build my own using either Sculpture etc or take the EXS24  
patches I have a play with them to  build the effects I want but I was  
hoping to work around that by getting some  real live patches.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Note I am normally a notated music composer but am using Logic more  
and more...

I think most of the big string collections have harmonics - for example 
sonivox.
