I would suggest 2 collections.
1 Denny Jaeger Violin Library.
2 Miroslav  Vitous Symphonic Orchestra Samples.

Two things to be aware of with the ESX.
1. First and foremost, at this point in time there are two issues with
translation from the Akai library with these discs:
A) They actually don't translate.
B) Even if they did you will lose all tuning information.
We await a fix on this.
2. With the Jeager Library you are supplied with Sustaining Instruments and
Attack Instruments. This makes it possible to use a Legato....soft
section........ and then choose an Attack set of samples for a faster
passage. Of course this means that 2 ESX instruments must receive on the
same midi channel. This allows you to activate the faster samples with
control information. At the moment this can't be done with the ESX.
So you can wait around for a fix or invest in a hardware sampler or Sample
Cell.
