Define your sound

Sonically, these instruments are designed to be flexible: They can take center stage, or sound close and intimate, depending on what you need. They also form the perfect complement to the ensembles in our Berlin Woodwinds main library.

Playable and expressive

Each of the players is a true soloist—from Yeon Hee Kwak on the oboe and English horn, to Jelka Weber on the flutes. And you can channel these performances easily—three legato modes let you play fluid melody lines, while still offering plenty of scope for detailed editing later.

The soloists for your ensemble

These solo instruments complement the ensembles in the Berlin Woodwinds main collection. The up-front, intimate sound of the solo instruments sits well with the more spacious ensemble sound of the main room, while at the same time giving the soloists the spotlight they deserve. We’ve taken great care to make sure that playability, techniques, and levels are consistent across all Berlin Woodwinds—in fact, across the whole Berlin Series.

About the legato styles


Play straight out of the box with adaptive legato—play moderately, and you
get a nice slurred legato. Play faster and you’ll automatically get faster
legato transitions. Additional re-tongued transitions, where the player
‘re-attacks’ a note, provide added realism.

A single velocity layer for maximum expressiveness


Instead of recording fixed p, mf and f layers, the musicians were free to
follow their instincts in choosing the best dynamic for a solo part. This
gives rise to lively, dynamic long notes in different styles. While higher
velocity leads the instrument to play a subtle crescendo, playing more softly
results in a slight decrescendo. By using a single velocity layer, we reduce
any phasing effect to a minimum.

Mic merging
Preserve your system resources: Fine-tune your mix using multiple mic positions, then merge into a single channel within the player.

Greater usability
SINE is designed to complement the compositional workflow. Create on the fly with auto keyswitch options, and easy remapping tools.

Download à la carte
Choose only the instruments and mic positions that you currently need—no need to download the entire collection at once.
