Product Overview
LIMINAL: Winds features a collection of hand-crafted flutes, ranging from a small fife to a large contra-bass made from industrial tubing. The library captures an intimate and evocative sound, ideal for creating atmospheric pads and ethereal soundscapes rather than fast passages or soaring melodies.
Details
The flutes are closely recorded near the embouchure hole, which adds a characteristic breathiness and intimacy to the samples. Articulations are expressive and evolving, allowing for a naturalistic performance that imparts character and movement. The library includes nine core articulations along with three creatively processed options, providing a diverse palette for underscoring and atmospheric work.
The user interface supports layering, mixing, and reversing articulations, while LFO controls enable tempo-synced modulation of individual layers. This feature enhances the potential for dynamic swells and evolving textures, making it a versatile tool for composers looking to add unpredictability and creative imperfection to their scores. A bonus version for HALion Sonic SE is also included, expanding accessibility for users without Kontakt.
