I don't own the Dimension strings expansion pack that you have, but I do own Gariton and I really like it. You will need to own a midi controller with knobs and faders to get the full benefits though. May the peace of God which passes all understanding guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

I've heard a lot about gariton and just wondered is it lots better than dimension, or are they pretty close? Or is there something else that you like? Just interested.
