Description
IxoxFlute is Xavier Hosxe’s sampled flute VST, recorded with multiple octaves and velocity layers rather than presented as a polished professional soundfont. The developer explicitly warns that the playing can be noisy, out of tune, or buggy, giving the instrument a raw, characterful quality.
The normal flute mode covers three octaves with three velocity layers, while staccato/détaché and percussive modes provide additional sampled articulations. A second flute and an embedded SF2 are also described, and the SF2 can be used separately in a compatible player.
