This recently renovated facility includes two large and impressive sound stages.

Sound Stage One at 12,300 M3 (with a floor space of 700 M2) is one of the biggest scoring stages in the world and is particularly suited to large-scale symphonic film scores and classical recording - the recent Decca album, GLUCK ITALIAN ARIAS by CECILIA BARTOLI was recorded here - having a "live" but very controllable concert hall acoustic

Sound Stage Two at 3,900 M3 is ideal for orchestras between 40 and 70 players having an overall dryer acoustic.

Both studios are served by a brand new control room which has been equipped with all the latest recording and computer technology that is so important in film scoring, including:

AMS-Neve VXS 72-Channel mixing console
Encore-Automation with Flying Faders and Total Recall
Scoring-Panel for 4 / 5.1 / 7.1 Multichannel Mixing and Monitoring


Tadlow Music is able to offer the services of the finest orchestral players in Berlin. THE GERMAN FILM ORCHESTRA - BABELSBERG, are the only professional orchestra for film music in Germany. This orchestra was formed as a result of the
re-unification of Germany and the joining together of the DEFA SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA with the RADIO BERLIN DANCE ORCHESTRA. Because the orchestra consists of performers from the major Berlin orchestras including the Berlin Radio Symphony, the Radio-Sinfonieorchestra, the Deutches Symphonie-Orchestra and the Berlin Opera Orchestra, they have both symphonic and jazz traditions, making them capable of performing a wide spectrum of musical styles needed for the demands of film scoring.

Recent international film assignments include:
LE MILLE - Alexander Desplat
SNOW WHITE - Bob Muzingo
THE EXTREMISTS - Stanislas Strewicz

as well as numerous homegrown film and TV scores.
