--> AFAIK the Advanced Orchestra Series (8 CDs by now..) is only available
in akai, emu, roland and giga formats, not in exs24 (yet?).
There is a "light" version called "Advanced Orchestra Compact Edition"
available in exs24 format which I own, but I personally believe it\ufffds a
rip-off: 99,- Euro (in Germany) now, but only about 300 MB content (if I
remember correctly), very basic instruments, geared towards low-memory
usage, and some of the sustained samples not even looped cleanly (audible
"clicks"...) - so I would recommend to stay away from that.
I have heard the full series in action and found it to be quite impressive
though, but it\ufffds about 1000,- Euro - and you migth run into some conversion
issues (if, e.g., converting from akai to exs24...)

Just my 2 Ecu,
