I am currently composing and sampling the music for my adventure games with Finale 2012 and the Garritan Symphonic VST library.
Then I pass every single voice through Ambience Plugin and remix it with ProTools to get some dynamic details.
The results are OK. However I would like to get more perspective and deepness and details.

Is there a better VST library / plugin combination that someone can recommend?
Do results get better if I'd use a special sampler to resample everything
before mixing like native instruments kontakt 4 or similar?

What do you use to make your midi music sound better?

The better your sample library the better the music will sound.

However, you can get pretty good results with mediocre sample libraries if you pay close attention to the midi programming to begin with. It's important to "humanise" your tracks as best as possible. This is especially true of rhythm tracks.

Ultimately I think you'll hit the limits of your mix environment and your skills before you hit the limits of your sample library.

EWQLSO (EastWest Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra). Gold or Platinum.
LASS 2 (Los Angeles Scoring Strings). For strings only
VSL (Viena Symphonic Library). for everything but amazingly pricey

These are the main full packages I remember at the moment...

Thank you, that was what I was looking for.
I knew vienna symphonic library but it really is too expensive.
I ordered the gold edition of EWQLSO now.
24 GB of samples...
My current sampling library just has 1 GB of basic samples.
Hopefully it will boost my music a bit up.
