Great piece anyway, I admire that you refrain from overly repetitive motifs/themes like a lot of other musicians here seem to get hung up with.
It definitely makes a lot of sense to do that in this context but for some reason it makes these samples sound even less realistic. Honestly I think they sound pretty acceptable as is, it's no substitute for a real violin but the reverb (I'm worried it may be too thick actually) compensates for that adequately. Thanks for listening and taking the time to post anyway, I appreciate it.
