I compared the VP-330 with the Solina String Ensemble. First is Roland VP-330, second is Arp Solina String. In the first example I didn't use Attack and Release Time, in the second I opened the filter of the VP and the crescendo level of the Solina, in the third example I used longer envelopes, in the last examples I used in the VP Human Voice also and in the Solina Contra Bass. 

No effects used. Its recommended to use a phaser, like the small stone electro harmonics.

I am a synthesist an I like vintage i.e. analog synths from the 70ies, 80ies and 90ies.
