The last time I was doing music production, I was learning how not all instruments are created equally.
If you want to do some pop music work, drum beats are a dime a dozen.
If you want to do high quality orchestral work, you're going to have to fork out some serious cash for stuff like EastWest Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra, Vienna Symphonic Library, Garritan Personal Orchestra, and others.
I'm sure things have since changed and you can now get some of these on cloud subscriptions, but you couldn't really achieve the same depth at all with some of the stuff you'd get as standard packs from your favorite DAW.
