    You can achieve similar with octave unison runs (with Kontakt libraries) and apply shitloads of reverb.

    Thanks for your responses. I see it says that Avicii used a library from Kontakt for strings on his equipboard page.

    I have this kontakt library for disco strings.



    I also have session strings for Kontakt which has motown falls and motown glissandos for this type of sound and it sounds great. If that's what Avicii used then I should be able to get a similar sound.

    I saw him using AudioBro LA Scoring Strings (Kontakt) in one video although not sure if it has those sounds
