A trio of authentic, expressive flutes with beautiful ornaments and full of emotion
Ventus Native American Flutes is the seventh entry into our highly acclaimed series of deep-sampled woodwinds and flutes from all over the world. This collection includes three distinct, traditional Native American flutes, each handcrafted in the historic town of Patagonia among majestic mountains.
The sounds of each flute – the Red Tail Hawk, Pocket Cedar, and Contra Bass – are evocative, meditative, and soothing in tone. You’ll find them immediately inspiring, with lovely melodic voices, and individually distinct pitch ranges. They’re highly suitable for solo playing (particularly with a bit of spacious reverb) but work equally well alongside ensembles, in genres ranging from jazz and New Age to film scores and ambient soundscapes.
With our latest Agility script engine, it’s easier than ever to achieve a sonorous and expressive performance using only your MIDI controller or piano roll. You can automatically trigger ornaments without lifting a finger, or create custom articulation mapping to suit any DAW or workflow. Plus, you don’t even need external FX thanks to the powerful Console script providing dozens of FX modules at your fingertips.
If you’re on a deadline, you can create authentic, realistic parts using the library’s extensive phrase collection with hundreds of categorized phrases for each flute. Use them in our Kontakt engine, or as WAVs directly in your DAW for further processing. These are a great way to immediately establish atmosphere and tone.
In creating this library, we’ve sought to respect and capture the authenticity of these beautiful instruments to the highest degree possible. We hope you’ll enjoy them!
Articulations
Ventus Native American Flutes includes our custom TACT engine, allowing you to customize how all articulations are mapped and triggered! Everyone has their own preferences for how to perform or write for virtual guitar, and with TACT you can create the perfect setup for your DAW.
Console modular FX rack & mixer
Console is our new mixer, modular effects rack, and pedal board, designed to give you full control over your virtual guitar tone. Unlike our previous FX racks, which were limited to a small amount of preset modules, Console gives you 30 effects modules to choose from! These include multiple EQs (digital and analog-style), compressors, spatial FX, modulation FX, amps, distortion pedals, reverbs, and a selection of over 30 custom cabinet IRs recorded just for Shreddage 3! These cabs cover all the most important sounds you would want, with both dynamic & condenser mics in multiple positions plus a ribbon mic for certain models. Using Console, you can easily save and load FX chains or presets between projects or even different Shreddage 3 products. It also allows you to mix and blend between guitar pickups, with custom inserts on each if you’d like.
