HV Synth Design has announced the release of a new wind instrument package: Total Flute. It's available for Windows as a VST instrument plug-in for $99.
Total Flute features three realistic sounding VST instruments: a piccolo, a standard/alto/bass flute, and a (Contra)Bass flute. So there are two bass flutes (one more dark, one more bright).
Controls:
- Breath Pressure: via MIDI learn you can choose the controller you want to use for breath pressure.
- Breath/bore noise (MIDI learn).
- Amount of the noise + the 'color'.
- Vibrato (aftertouch or MIDI learn).
- Flutter tongue (MIDI learn).
- Pitch Bend (in flute parlando it is called lip bending: when you go up, the tone become louder, when you go down, to tone become softer).
The standard/alto/bass and piccolo flute have alto a control for dynamic instability (When a flutist plays long notes it is hard to keep the tone stable).
A trial version is available (the standard/alto/bass flute).
