get real string players haha. you'll never get the keyboard to sound like the real deal, but you can greatly aid the process by thinking out of the box. Don't think in piano voicings, and pre arrange your parts before playing them with the aim of creating the contrapuntal textures one normally observes in a string ensemble.

CAN!!!!!!!!!!!! .........

inexpensive way is to program it in sequencer .. (it's it for arrangement purposes) program it 1 sound by 1 sound ... and do the articulation ...

another way, expensive one is to get samples .... expensive samples from Garritan Personal Orchestra, for example ... they have realistic string sound, cuz it's recorded .... not patch .... patch only have very short amount of recorded string sound ....
