Alto Flute
By Vienna Symphonic Library
Every Vienna Instruments collection comes with both the Vienna Instruments player and Vienna Ensemble. Get Vienna Instruments Pro and Vienna Ensemble Pro to add another layer of expression to Vienna Instruments and improve your workflow.
The Alto Flute in G is a transposing instrument which extends the flutes' lower tone 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 download product contains all of the Alto flute samples of the Vienna Special Edition and of the Special Edition PLUS as well as some additional articulations. Please find a detailed list of included playing techniques under the menu item Sample Content. Of course you'll also get access to download the Vienna Instruments player software.
