Berlin Series

Berlin Symphonic Harps

There has been one shimmering sound missing in our Berlin Series all along: the harp.

To rectify this, we went back to the Teldex Scoring Stage to capture the spirit of this enchanting instrument. To give users even more scope in enhancing their Berlin Series template, we recorded not one, but two harps.

Sophisticated Features

True pedal control

Each harp string has been recorded in its natural, sharp and flat pitch. A special interface within CAPSULE allows users to control this feature,
tuning the harp just like the real thing.

Playable glissandi patches

These patch samples were recorded using a glissando technique, which is different from that of a single plucked note.
Berlin Symphonic Harps is perfect for creating these glissando sounds.

Release dampening 

For both harps, different note lengths and dampening sounds are recorded and triggered within the sustain patches
depending on the timing of the key releases.

If you play very short notes, the strings will be dampened immediately.
However, if you use the sustain pedal, they will ring out for as long as you hold it down.
