I agree with virtually everything here. It’s not an ideal piece for showing off your art! I know the full range of the patches available in the VI and synchronized (as opposed to synchron) libraries from the solo strings primarily though there are similar ideas for the orchestral strings collections. As has been made clear by Daniel from this thread Multiple Playback Techniques in Ex Map Entries - Label and Sort by Selection Order not Alpha - #7 by ebrooks no new features are to be expected in the Expression Maps for the initial release of 4 but I suspect and hope they won’t be too far off. We’re both looking for similar things (despite approaching the programming in rather different ways) and indeed I posted around 18 months ago about the sort of things I would like to see added to the Expression Maps!
