Created with Berklee
A collaboration with the world's leading music school
Berlin Orchestra was created in close collaboration with Berklee College of Music — the world's preeminent college for studying music. With this comprehensive sample collection, Berklee and Orchestral Tools have produced a tremendous educational and creative resource.
At Berklee, students experience all aspects of the music industry through a rigorous interdisciplinary curriculum. We plan to continue our collaboration with more initiatives to support students and new composers.
Full compositional palette
Write with individual voicings and sections
You don't get 'horns' — you get 4 separate solo horns plus a horn ensemble, each with its own specific articulations. Write with individual voicings and blend instruments to create unique sections.
All instruments were carefully recorded at the same natural gain levels, with musicians in traditional orchestra seating positions. Strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion all blend naturally, in perfect balance.
