Crystal Flute is an instrument we’ve been wanting to sample for a very long time. These handcrafted
instruments are made from Pyrex glass, with a design similar to a modern concert flute. The tone is also similar
to a concert flute, but the specific instrument we sampled is a bit deeper and wispier. We ventured into the
studio to record this instrument, sampled it with some special new techniques in order to achieve seamless
loops and a very intimate sound.
MAIN PAGE
• LEGATO = monophonic “true” legato • RR = borrowed round robin on/off
• POLY = polyphonic sustain • STAGE = reverb on/off
• SHORT = staccatos
• ORNAMENT SWITCH = between major (whole step) and minor (half step)

CONFIGURATION PAGE
• CC CHOOSER = select your desired CC’s for Dynamics/Vibrato and Flutter Tongue
• AIR NOISE = at 127, you will hear full air noise. At 0, you’ll hear only the tonal content
• RESPONSIVENESS = the higher the value, the more responsive the legato will be, BUT at the expense of
realism!
• ORN AND SLIDE THRESHOLDS = if you play a note at a velocity at or ABOVE the “Orn” knob, you will
trigger an ornament. If you play a note at a velocity at or BELOW the “Slide” knob (m2+M2 only), it will trigger
a special slide/emotional transition.
• RELEASE/ATTACK SAMPLES = you have the option to turn off both the attack and the release samples.
Note that as you play with higher velocities, the attack sample becomes more noticeable.
• SPEED RESPONSE = clicking this button will load all of the legato transitions into RAM, allowing for speed
responsiveness. This means that the faster you play, the quicker the transitions become.
• KEYSWITCH AREA = customize any of the keyswitches to the desired location on your keyboard!
