I About this Articulation Guide
The number of Orchestral Tools is constantly growing and covers all instrumental families of the orchestra,
with some collections even branching out into non-orchestral instruments. This Articulation Guide describes
all contained articulations as well as their technical properties (velocity layers, Round Robins, and many
more).
This document is a special version of the Articulation Guide that only contains features applicable to thecollections listed below.You can download the full Articulation Guide that applies to all Orchestral Tools collections in our Helpdesk.
The following table lists all collections covered by this Articulation Guide with their current Capsule version
as well as the minimum Kontakt version.

ImportantThis Articulation Guide does not cover the general installation, usage and features of Orchestral Tools
collections. These topics are explained step by step in the respective User Guides and Installation Guides,
which you can find in your collection's Documentation folder. You can also find them in our Helpdesk.

II Introduction
Welcome to the Orchestral Tools Articulation Guide!
Orchestral Tools provides high-quality sampled instruments for composers. Thanks to our Capsule Scripting
Framework developed in-house, all Orchestral Tools collections look and work in a very similar way.
Articulation names, labeling and all technical terms are identical in every collections, so you will find it easy
to find your way around.
This Articulation Guide describes all articulations as well as their technical features and is organized as
follows:
- The general Ser ies Overv iew shows you all available Orchestral Tools Series', which group our
collections into broader categories.
- Following this is the respective Ser ies Overv iew Page of one particular Series, which lists all available
collections by name and gives suggestions for expansions options.
- Each individual collection then has its own Col lect ion Overv iew page, which describes the general
content of the collection as well as its most important features at a glance.
- This is followed by the Inst ruments Section, which lists all instruments (or sections) contained in the
collection with a short description of tone, scope or other pertinent information.
- The Ar t iculat ions Section finally lists all articulations in detail along with all their properties.

OT Articulation Guide
III Recording and Concept
We are happy to have found a sonic home for our collections at the Teldex Scoring Stage in Berlin.
The large recording stage at Teldex looks back on a long tradition of many well known and Grammy®
award winning recordings. Famous orchestras, like the Berlin Philharmonics and great film composers from
the USA and Europe trust and love the wide and clear acoustics of this room. One of the best sounding
scoring stages in Europe, this room together with a fantastic complement of legendary microphones catapults
our work to a new level of orchestral sampling.
The quality of a sampled collection begins with the recording. Every Orchestral Tools collection is recorded
at 96khz with state of the art equipment. The full editing and post-production process uses these 96khz
recordings without downsampling. We very rarely denoise our recordings and never treat them in any other
automated way. If tuning is needed, it is done by ear without resorting to tuning algorithms. Only at the very
end, right before the samples are mapped into their instruments, the content is converted to 48khz for best
use of resources.
Our goal is to provide a set of tools that easily adapts to any workflow and creates a coherent sonic
representation of the orchestra. The main way we achieved this is by recording every instrument in its
orchestral position. All collections come pre-panned and pre-mixed with their respective volumes
balanced. If there are multiple types of the same instrument, they are recorded in slightly different positions,
yet still in their general section area. The different snare drums in Berlin Percussion, for example, have been
recorded slightly spread over the general "snare drum area" within the percussion section. This allows you to
have a very wide and full sound when combining multiple instruments.
We deliberately choose to also record non-traditional instruments as belonging to a symphonic setup, like
electric guitars and a drumset in our Metropolis Ark Series. Modern media scoring introduces a host of new
instruments into the established orchestral lineup and we feel these instruments deserve the same care and
precision in fitting them into the symphonic sound as their traditional counterparts.
All collections feature a number of microphone positions commonly used in orchestral recording. The
position of these microphones is identical in every collection, which means that for example the Tree is much
nearer to the string section that it is to the percussion section (because the percussion section is situated at
the back of the orchestra). This enabled lively acoustics that come pre-mixed for the respective stage
position. The choice of mic positions also depends greatly on the instrument. Some instruments, especially in
the percussion section, benefit greatly from a M/S position to enable accurately positioning the sound
source.
Wherever possible, similar instruments use the same mapping scheme so it is usually possible to transfer
MIDI data from one instrument to another easily. This is especially important and useful for percussion.

IV Berlin Series
The Berlin Series is Orchestral Tools' ongoing journey to harnessing the sound of the Teldex Scoring stage
in an all-purpose orchestral sample collection.
Every major section of the orchestra is represented by one Main Collection, which contains all essentials
instruments and articulations and forms the backbone of any symphonic piece. These collections are
expanded and continued by special expansion collections, which add additional instruments or playing
techniques.
The following table lists all Berlin Series Collections currently released - underlined names jump to a
description of its content and unique features. You can download a version of this Articulation Guide that
applies to all released Collections on our Helpdesk.
When you load any Berlin Series patch inside Kontakt, the instrument slot will show an icon representing the

OT Articulation Guide
4.1 Berlin Brass - Muted Brass
Berlin Brass - Muted Brass vastly extends the Berlin Brass line-up with a selection of different mutes for all
core BBR instrument types. As always, we made sure to sample everything in-depth and provide sonorities
fitting to BBR Main Collection. Featuring two stopped horns, horn ensemble, all other brass instruments
have been recorded with three different mute types across their whole articulation range.
With this third complement to Berlin Brass we enrich the Berlin Series with a new and extraordinary flavour.
The Muted Brass Collection is an extremely detailed set delivering seven outstanding solo instruments and
two ensembles:
Extraordinary flavoursUse 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 modern, classical
tone.
A perfect blendThe same uncompromising technical set up, the same seating positions of the professional Berlin orchestral
musicians, and of course the sound of the perfectly balanced Teldex Scoring Stage guarantee a flawless
blending with the Berlin Brass Main Collection.
Combined with Berlin Brass Main or on its own – with Muted Brass, the biggest orchestral muted brass
collection ever recorded, we deliver a new tool to create unique additions to your work.
Instrumentation and Recording
Berlin Brass - Muted Brass contains nine instruments or instrumental sections, which are divided into patches
containing a single articulation as well as multi articulation patches. You will find all of these patches inside
the Instruments folder. The collection contains the following instruments or sections, as they appear in your
instruments folder:
19. Horn 1 Stopped
20. Horn 2 Stopped
21. Horn Ensemble Stopped
22. Trumpet 1 Muted
23. Trumpet 2 Muted
24. Trumpet Ensemble Muted
25. Trombone 1 Muted
26. Trombone 2 Muted
27. Bass Trombone Muted
All Trumpets and Trombones contain Stem Half, Stem In and Straight Mutes.
Note that the instrument numbering continues the sequence from the Berlin
Brass Main Collection and Berlin Brass - Additional Instruments.
This structure is identical for Single Articulation, Multi Articulation and Time
Machine-enabled patches.

All instruments within a section are different instruments played by different musicians, not just additional
recording passes.
You have free choice between six microphone positions, Close I and II, ORTF, AB, Tree and Surround.
These microphone positions are switchable in the GUI and can be controlled via MIDI CC. Additionally, all
core articulations have been recorded with multiple velocity layers for realistic dynamics.
All samples have their natural panning.

4.1.1 Instruments
Berlin Brass - Muted Brass expands your brass section with nine muted instruments and sections.
This section briefly explains the individual instruments and points out usage scenarios and expansion
options.
A b o u t t h e M i c r o p h o n e P o s i t i o n s :
The Tree, AB and Surround positions as in all OT Collections are placed in fixed positions and are never
moved. Their sound is identical to their counterparts in all other OT Collections.
The ORTF is always centered in front of the respective section, identically to the placement in Berlin Brass.
This provides a balanced position, not quite dry, but also not as wet as the other positions. Furthermore,
this way it is possible to "move around" the section on the stage.
Close I and II are different stereo pairs focused on the respective section, differing sound between the two
positions.
Horn 1, Horn 2 and Horn Ensemble
Berlin Brass - Muted Brass features two solo stopped French Horns with essential articulations plus a 4 Horn
Ensemble, fitting to the ensemble in BBR
Trumpet 1, Trumpet 2 and Trumpet Ensemble
Two solo trumpets with Straight Mute and a Harmon Mute with both Stem Half and Stem In positions as well
as a 3 Trumpet Ensemble (again like in BBR) bring plenty of muted options.
Trombone 1 and Trombone 2
All three mute types have also been recorded for two individual Tenor Trombones.
Bass Trombone
The Bass trombone, again with all three mute types, round up the bottom end.
N o t a b l e A r t i c u l a t i o n s :
Berlin Brass - Muted Brass features a number of unique articulations in addition to the regular staples.
These include:
- Tempo-synced 16th and Triplets repetitions
- Several dynamics, including crescendi and fortepiano
- full legato for all Horns and Trumpets
Most articulations are also available as Time Machine patches, which allow you to adjust the sample
length dynamically.

Berlin Brass - Muted Brass is the natural muted expansion for the brass staples from Berlin Brass, and and
its Additional Instruments expansion. If you can't get enough of French Horns, the Berlin Brass - French
Horn SFX adds four additional French Horns recorded both separately and individually with a host of highly
controllable effects.
