Powerhouse Flute Instrument
The Flute Library to End All Others.
This instrument is the final addition to our solo flutes library, and sits above as the flagship. Into this, we poured the quietest yet recorded flute pianissimo legato, which takes astounding musicianship to achieve and capture.
A full powerhouse of articulations includes six note shapes combined with different vibrato (or non vibrato) options, legato styles, different short styles, extended articulations, a full 4x mic position set, controls over air intensity (or even interactive mode) and more.
Viciously Quiet. Dancing On The Edge of Silence.
Soft Legato Beyond Anything Recorded Thus Far.
The softest dynamic, which is achieved by turning the mod wheel (CC1) down all the way, is a near-silence, viciously-difficult, beautiful sound to attain on the flute.
To our knowledge, there does not exist a virtual flute instrument capable of producing such a tone, due to the difficulty in performing and capturing this whisper-like sound. Listen below.
