Studio Alto Flute
The Studio Alto Flute by VSL delivers the warm, full-bodied sound of the G alto flute. Featuring diverse articulations—staccato, portato, various vibratos, legato, dynamic nuances, flutter tonguing, and trills—it's optimized for the Vienna Synchron Player, ensuring flexible and creative performance.
The alto flute in G is a transposing instrument that extends the flutes’ lower tonal range. There are two types: the straight shape and that with a curved headpiece. A straight-headed model was used for the recordings. The alto flute has a full, warm sound suggesting mystery, especially in the lower range.
The library features the full set of articulations that’s on par with the instruments of Studio Woodwinds, offering various short and long notes, legato variants (including fast legatos that let you play trills), dynamic articulations such as crescendos and diminuendos, fp, sfz, sffz, pfp, flutter tongue, trills and more.
The Synchron Player’s integrated convolution reverb adds the outstanding ambience of the 540 m² (5,813 sq.ft.) main hall of Synchron Stage Vienna to the dry samples in real-time. Expertly crafted mixer presets place the instrument on its perfect spot on stage, resulting in a production-ready sound “out of the box” that blends seamlessly with the instruments of Studio Woodwinds as well as with every other product in the Synchron Series.
