Orchestral Tools

Chamber-sized Ensembles and Soloists. TIME micro is your creative resource for atmospheric and rhythmic underscoring, geared towards intimate and small instrument groups and soloists – for instance chamber sized string sections and small vocal groups comprising no more than three singers.

When musical ideas flow, being quick is crucial. That's why we designed a virtual orchestra that combines a phenomenal sound with the capabilities of a fast writing tool. Berlin Orchestra Inspire is based on the Berlin Series, which was developed over the last 5 years. Today it is one of the largest and most detailed orchestral sample collections in the world, which is used by many composers around the world and in countless Hollywood productions.

METROPOLIS ARK I is inspired by a cinematic monument from 1927 - The first ever epic science fiction motion picture of our time. A Berlin original which inspired us to preserve all its strength, greatness and bold exceptionalism in a monumentally powerful collection to bring it back into the latest cinematic soundtrack productions.

Metropolis Ark 3 - The Beating Orchestra - is the third instalment in our epic orchestral series. You might ask. Is it percussion? Is it an orchestra? It is both but melted and refined into one: A Percussive Orchestra.

SYMPHONIC SPHERE is an orchestral sample library, focused on symphonic flickers and shimmering articulations like fingered tremolos, trills in many different styles (sul ponticello, harmonics, sfz,…), harp beds and glisses. Let your orchestrations breathe and shine with a huge collection of never before recorded, playable articulations performed by the same musicians of our first release “Orchestral String Runs” at the same scoring-stage.

Use the individually recorded mutes to provide remarkable sonorities to your creations. Like all Berlin Series Instruments, Muted Brass is highly versatile and adaptable. The specific sound of the different mutes lets you achieve a real vintage vibe as well as a classical or contemporary tone.

The follow-up to the highly successful Metropolis Ark 1 presents epicness in a shape you wouldn’t expect. Deep, wide and low. The true power arises from the low dynamics. The Mighty High Strings (24 Violins), Mid Strings (10 Violas, 8 Celli), and Low Strings (8 Celli, 12 Basses) deliver so far undetected possibilities for orchestral strings pads.

Berlin Woodwinds is the industry standard when it comes to sampled woodwind collections. The product that started our journey at the Teldex Scoring Stage in 2012, now received a huge update called Berlin Woodwinds Revive. Most instruments have been newly recorded and, best of all, the whole original Berlin Woodwinds from 2012 with additional tweaks is included. This gives you as a composer double the number of instruments for ultimate flexibility and possibilities for doubling.

Combined with Berlin Brass Main or on its own – these solo instruments extend your brass paintbox from the lowest end of the Contrabass Trombone to the highest range of the Piccolo Trumpet. No matter if you write high and festive solo lines or ultra low chords - the Additional Instruments are your new tool to realize strikingly fresh brass arrangements.

Since its first release, the Berlin Series has become the premium standard for major composers around the world. Composers who believe in technology, an extraordinary room, the finest musicians and a variety of many useful articulations that keep the Collections versatile and up to date for many years to come. The long awaited final Main Collection within the renowned Berlin Series is on the way: Berlin Brass.
