This is good information. Thank you.bluesawsq wrote: ↑Tue Jun 08, 2021 7:05 pmI would use some physical modeling synth.

It's the famous shakuhachi sample from E-mu Emulator II.
Yamaha VL1 has a pretty good synthetic (physical modeling) shakuhachi sound.
In Kontakt factory library there is also a nice shakuhachi with different articulations and release noise samples.
What is happening in that sound at the end? Maybe you know?
There is clearly something like a division at some point towards the end and the sound changes if you listen to the sample I posted?
Regarding the end of the sound, it sounds like another note or trill or something. I'm not at all familiar with shakuhachi playing technique, but you could watch some great tutorials on Youtube, like on this Renzoh Flutes channel:

As I played the preset which you helped me to find I can hear this ending appear automatically after the exact amount of time as in Enigma's songs.
It's always surprising to me how the artists just used some samplers.
Still I would like to reconstruct this sound and find out how this ending had been created before it was sampled (i. e. information about the playing technique on this Japanese flute) and what this is in terms of an analysis in sound design. I think it's several things happening at the same time: breathing noise is added, loudness is added and something is happening to the quality of the sound as well.
I will post the original sample. That should make it easier to analyse this sound some further.
