Orchestral Tools

Berlin Woodwinds is the first sample library to offer a complete orchestral woodwind section allowing the composer to write for up to woodwinds in 2s (meaning 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets and 2 bassoons), with doubles (Piccolo and English horn). There’s also a third flute.

The library is recorded with 4-5 different mic positions: AB, Tree, Close, Surround and Concert master (only violin 1). The mics can me mixed and matched by the user but using them all at the same time is obviously very resource demanding. Also Adaptive Legato Engine is created, which uses three different legato types (slurred-expressive, agile and fast) plus portamento, and it switches automatically depending on how fast you play. Velocity switches between three different bow stroke intensities for an even more realistic legato attack.

How does time affect sound? Can sound exist without time? Can a single note have rhythm? This collection answers these questions with an unusual orchestra that seemingly dislocates the passing of time. Mid-sized orchestral ensembles and choirs combine to create unique shifting texturesclearly rooted in organic sound, but imperceptibly drifting up into the ether. Advanced articulations and dynamic gestures add nuance and movement. With full sections, 10 individual ensembles, and evocative Chrono Structures, TIME macro is instant inspiration. Essential for all kinds of contemporary scoring, and perfect for underscoring and sound design.

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.

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.
