Precisionsound releases Nordic Low Whistles for HALion, NI Kontakt, EXS24 and SoundFont.

The "Härjedalspipa", "shepherds flute" in our context called the Nordic Low Whistle, is a Swedish cylindrical flute, build by craftsman Gunnar Stenmark.
The model is a result of folk music research, and has also been further developed by musician's preferences. This particular instrument is a seven-hole whistle, made of slow grown fir-wood.
