Let me know what other tests to make using this plugin! I'll probably try using the Joshua Bell Violin, maybe some percussion instruments, and maybe some home recordings.

Try playing some of the OT soloists woodwinds as they were recorded at Teldex iso booth rather than the stage.

Unbelievable. Maybe you should write to YT. Same thing will happen if you use those loops an midi files they try to sell you when you first start your music career. Thank you very much for the test that was very interesting. Personally I am an addict of LiquidSonics 'Cinematic Rooms Pro' and 'SeventhHeaven Pro' (I know it's a different utilization but classical sound coming out from CRP is out of this world).

Happy to see you've also found this gem of a plugin! I've used it since its release and am incredibly impressed with it. You really manage to get a cohesive sound from the different libraries here (glad to hear you've chosen one of my favorite pieces in the classical repertoire for this demonstration!). I tend not to use the A-B mics much, but I find that a small amount of the surround mics can add an extra layer of immersion. I also tend to add a small amount of long reverb tail (Large Hall, 2.3 s) using Seventh Heaven or Cinematic Rooms if I want to achieve more of a concert hall sound. Berlin Studio blends seamlessly with the tail reverb for a coherent symphonic sound. Oh, and I hope you feel better soon!

@@AlexHeppelmann I've experimented a bit with size, tail, ERS settings, but mostly decided to go with the default values. However, I do find that the delay setting for the source channel makes a big difference. Adding a bit of delay there can bring the direct signal perfectly in time with the Decca tree mics (a common recording trick, apparently). Peter, the developer, has promised to post the exact delay values at some point, but the ones I know so far is 14 ms for the woodwinds position and 7 ms for the 1st violins. Experimentation should bring you close enough for the other positions. As a first test, try placing a really dry instrument in the WW position and compare the results between 0 ms and 14 ms delay. Depending on the samples I use, I sometimes make some EQ cuts in the low register to prevent boominess in e.g., pizzicato basses. I hope this helps!

Very interesting. I'm conducting similar experiments with MIR Pro3D and getting similar results. All of your combinations work very well in fact you've made me want to upgrade from BBCSO core to Pro so I can get close mics and integrate with MIR.

Nice mock up of Schubert's Unfinished Symphony. The ironic result of the Berlin Studio reverb plugin is it doesn't matter what vst you use, the spatial placement, mics and hall reverb lift any vst to the same quality which is clear when you then compare the vast differences between instruments when the plugin is off.

great test. does it work the other way around? if you have an airy percussion library without adjustable mic settings. can you make them more dry or more in the front? thank you

so do you see this as a reverb? or do you still add a tail to it via another reverb?

It could be either -- though I've been using just the Tree Mic to blend an instrument in with my other Teldex instruments, and then using Cinematic Rooms as a tail on my entire mix

Alex, I'm curious how you handle managing your CC data. Do you record modulation into every part in real-time? Copy/paste from a midi track into all your instruments? It's something that I struggle with often -with a ton of tracks it can be cumbersome to manage all of their modulation independently.

Haha, sorry Jett! I did this a bit too quickly perhaps. I think I'm just using the spiccatos for the violins. Keep the velocities extremely low, and violins 1 and 2 do not behave the same way, so you have to program them differently. Also take a look at how SINE cycles through the round robins.
