Orchestral Tools has offered a pre order for Berlin Percussion, another major addition to the Berlin Series. The Berlin Series is well known for its flexibility, detail and extensive sets of articulations, recorded with first call musicians from world-famous Orchestras at the Teldex Scoring Stage in Berlin.

All instruments are recorded in their natural positions within the acoustics of Teldex, famous for its proportions of reverb for samples and live recordings. The Teldex stage is thought to be not too wet to stay flexible with productions, but also isn't too dry so that its natural acoustics help to blend all the orchestral instruments together as one entity.
