Hi all,

Samplicity (now a new company with an older owner) has been silently working on plugins in the last 1,5 year and is proud to announce it first product:

Berlin Studio

a reverb plugin with the acoustics of a large, famous German studio.

18 orchestral positions on the recording stage, captured with a Decca Tree, an AB-Pair and surround microphones.

Check out the new Samplicity website and the first demos.

Cheers,

Peter

Ooh, the GUI is made to resemble an audio mixer. I really like that! So basically we'll pump our dry brass through the on-stage "Brass position", the winds and strings through their own, and then we'll be able to blend them all like a mixer? I'm guessing we'd have an option to bring up, say, a closer mic set just for the brass, winds, or percussion alone for added detail? This seems pretty exciting
 
Listening to the demos made w/ anechoic recordings, without any reverberation.

Advanced proprietary, multi-channel convolution engine w/ zero latency.

iLok 2/3 or Cloud.
 
Sounds great, Peter! Grats on the release :)

For me personally, I would have liked the recordings separated so that Dry is one file, Mix is another file, Fully Wet a third. That’s how most companies do it too.

It’s just so much easier to navigate the examples then.

this could be VERY useful to anyone who wants to blend dry samples with a certain very well known German sample developer who's name does not begin with V!

Oh thats a shame..... the name of the product made me think I would be able to blend dry samples with a German sample developer who's name begins with O, not V :crying:.
 
Ahhh hahaha it *is* a certain scoring stage in Berlin beginning with T - my bad :emoji_raised_hands:. My old lecturer for boolean logic (assuming he's still on this earth) would not be happy today HEHEH.

Just wondering, if the developer was allowed to capture IRs in Teldex and sell them as a reverb plugin, why are they not allowed to use its name?

Probably due to our existing contracts with another company.

You even see it with Sample libraries. There is a piano that we are pretty sure was recorded in Air Studios but the location is not mentioned on the product page.

As you can see in the About section on the site, this is indeed the acoustics from Teldex. Hendrik from OT and I have been carying a super heavy monitor around in the studio for playing the source signals. This was done already several years ago.

For now I just do not want to shout out their brand names on my website.
 
I looks and sounds awesome! Although when I saw "Berlin" I hoped it was the Meistersaal haha.

Is there a way to scale and/or shorten the IRs? When that option is missing when working with IRs ... :sad:

Time-dependent EQ is being developed for the other plugins. What the screen shots show is the current functionality; it would be cool indeed to include a kind of damping if time permits. Scaling and/or stretching IRs is a no-go area for this type of plugin for me.

[Edit: aaaand... I did add length scaling to Berlin Studio, when I ported it from another plugin, it was way too good not to include it :dancedance: ]
