DETAILS

The bansuri is an ancient flute indigenous to India, known as the nadi or tunava in some texts. It has a special role in North Indian and Hindustani classical music and is often known as the “divine instrument”, carrying with it the appropriate religious significance. Unlike many ancient flutes, the bansuri is tranverse (side-blown).

We selected the bansuri for the Ventus Series because of its supreme importance in traditional Indian music, and because we loved its haunting, low tone. It is the perfect companion for our Sitar Nation library.

Our bansuri library is performed by Josh Plotner, who captured all key articulations and playing techniques of the instrument: sustains, ornaments, staccatos, legato, portamento, bends, phrases and much more!

Ventus Series Concept
We started the Ventus Winds series to take you on a journey worldwide, capturing the tones of beautifully performed solo woodwinds outside the Western repertoire. Along with that goal, we want you to be able to create authentic performances without technology getting in the way.

Each Ventus instrument shares several key features, along with a familiar user interface:

1. Traditional playable articulations alongside a large pool of pre-recorded phrases that you can quickly drop into a composition for instant color.

2. An innovative ornaments system is designed to automatically create decorative techniques in real time with no extra sequencing or tweaking.

3. Our unique Total Articulation Control Technology (TACT) unifies and simplifies the process of creating your mapping setup for every instrument.

With these three features and our hallmark sampling depth and attention to detail, we know that our Ventus Winds will become a source of endless inspiration.
