A distinctive collection of exceptional woodwinds
Originals Rare Flutes bestows an extraordinary collection of flutes, sourced from all over the globe, performed by world-renowned flautist Andy Findon. This library contains woodwinds, such as the Bansuri and Chinese bamboo flute, to add a unique palette to your compositions.
Delicate and exquisite, these artisanal instruments were purposefully recorded dry in order to allow more control over the sound. With a central focus on the tone of each woodwind and three distinctive signals (Close, Room and Super Reverb), you have the option to give your sound warmth, sharpness or ambience — or blend all three signals to create something truly exquisite.
