You mean, like the string runs that are in the DVD (full) libraries?

There must be some reason the full libraries have their value...

Additionally, using various articulations, including PERF TRILL, with the speed parameter, makes for some very realistic run figures. And do this with multiple libraries and instruments for realism, and also constrain start/end of the existing runs, you can do some great work.

But I guess you need the full library for that.

Vl 18 SCALE RUNS
Octave runs
Legato, major and minor sharp from C to B on every note of the scale, chromatic and whole tone
Spiccato, major, from C to B on every note of the scale.

Vla 17 SCALE RUNS
Octave runs
Legato, major and minor sharp from C to B on every note of the scale, chromatic, whole tone, and furioso
Spiccato, major, from C to B on every note of the scale

Vc 17 SCALE RUNS
Octave runs
Legato, major and minor sharp from C to B on every note of the scale, chromatic, whole tone, and furioso
Spiccato, major, from C to B on every note of the scale

Cb 14 SCALE RUNS
Octave runs
Legato, major and minor sharp from C to B on every note of the scale
Legato, chromatic
Détaché, whole tone
Slow and fast

In theory that's a good idea. The only thing that might cause a problem though is the amount of licences you would need to be able to do that. You would probably need about 50 dongles hanging off your computer if you bought a couple of articulations for every instrument.
