Orange Tree Samples has released Flute Flight, a sample library featuring piccolo, concert flute, alto flute, and bass flute, powered by Native Instruments' Kontakt Player. They say:
Flute Flight takes a different approach from our Passion Flute library, which focuses on the raw tone and articulations necessary for jazz and rock flute, Flute Flight is designed to achieve sweet, lyrical phrases and soaring, majestic melodies.
Flute Flight's samples were performed by the flautist Mattan Klein and engineered by Mac Ritchey at Possum Hall Recording Studio in Massachusetts.
Key features:
- Nearly 13,000 samples totaling 2.3 GB of uncompressed samples.
- Legato transition samples, release samples, and other details that bring the sound of the flutes to life.
- Two choices for close mic signals as well as a room signal.
- Modeled vibrato for realistic, dynamically-controllable vibrato.
- Extended range available for accessing notes beyond the instruments' natural capabilities.
- Monophonic and polyphonic modes of playability.
- Built in EQ, compressor, and reverb for production-ready flute sounds.
Intro Price: $99 until December 15th, 2023 (Reg. $149). Flute Flight is powered by the free Kontakt Player.
