Actually, it turns out that I only submitted one string patch -- Cars Cello. (The memory is the first to go when you reach my age!) The reason that I only submitted one is that most of the string sounds I use are based on library sounds that I downloaded, and although I modify just about everything at some point, it would have been difficult to a) give proper credit to the originator, and b) tell if I had really done enough tweaking to call the patch "mine." At any rate, I use a patch I call "Analog," which is probably based on the Solina patch, but sounds a little bit warmer to my ears. I also use Cars Cello, which sounds more like Roland strings.

Regards,

-BW
