About Impact Soundworks Ventus Winds Complete Virtual Instrument Bundle, Download

Seven instruments in one package! Featuring Duduk, Native American Flutes, Bansuri, Ocarinas, Pan Flutes, Shakuhachi, and (last but certainly not least) our expressive Tin Whistle.

Note: This bundle is NOT fully compatible with the free Kontakt Player.


- Ventus Winds Duduk -
The 6th entry in our VENTUS Winds series features the haunting, mysterious sound of the duduk, more playable and expressive than ever before. This library is the debut of the AGILITY engine for smooth legato playing, poly legato, harmonization, and much more. Includes 12+ playing techniques and over 700 pre-recorded phrases!

About the Library
Ventus Duduk is the sixth entry into our acclaimed series of deep-sampled woodwinds from all over the world, and showcases an all-new Kontakt Player engine for the first time in the series. This new script allows for even more realistic performances and legato transitions, and adds long-awaited features such as polyphonic playing, harmonies, and scale locking for extra authenticity.

All of this new technology supports a beautiful set of duduk performances: single notes, legatos, ornaments, and phrases. The duduk itself is among the most widely used non-Western woodwinds in cinematic music. It can be heard in classic TV/film scores from Gladiator, Avatar, Battlestar Galactica, and Game of Thrones to video game soundtracks like Civilization, WarCraft, Uncharted, and God of War. Its mellow, haunting tone can be compared to that of an oboe, and with a skilled performer, is capable of very nimble grace notes and articulations.


- Ventus Native American Flutes -
The expressive, soothing, melodic tones of three traditional Native American Flutes are now available for your DAW! Perform soaring legato melodies, meditative drones, and a wide range of ornaments with ease using our latest AGILITY script for Kontakt. Incredibly inspiring for film scores, atmospheric music, New Age, jazz, and much more.

About the Library
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.


- Ventus Winds Bansuri -
The third instrument in our VENTUS Winds series features the divine tone of the Indian bansuri. Includes 14 playing techniques, nearly 350 pre-recorded phrases, and bonus drones - 4,500+ samples in total! An ornament system allows for unique, authentic performances and TACT (Total Articulation Control Technology) provides the ultimate solution for fully customizable mapping.

About the Library
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.


- Ventus Winds Ocarinas -
The fifth entry in our VENTUS Winds series features three ocarinas with unique timbres, ranges, and styles. Includes 12+ playing techniques per instrument and over 900 pre-recorded phrases! An ornament system allows for unique, authentic performances and TACT (Total Articulation Control Technology) provides the ultimate solution for fully customizable mapping.

About the Library
We are pleased to present to you the most deeply-sampled trio of ocarinas ever released - a Costa Rican Pendant Ocarina, a Triple Ocarina and a Chinese Xun - the fifth entry into our Ventus series of solo woodwind instruments from around the world.

Pendant Ocarinas date from the time of the Incas and were used as instruments for festivals, rituals and ceremonies. They usually have 8-9 holes and are often shaped like animals (ours is a toad). The Triple Ocarina is a multi-chambered ocarina with a broad range of about two octaves plus a fifth. The Chinese Xun is an ancient egg shaped aerophone that dates back 7,000 years and was been used primarily in the performance of palace music.


- Ventus Winds Pan Flutes -
The fourth entry in our VENTUS Winds series features two instruments in one: the versatile nai pan flute, and the powerful toyo bass pan flute. Includes 15+ playing techniques per instrument and over 650 pre-recorded phrases! An ornament system allows for unique, authentic performances and TACT (Total Articulation Control Technology) provides the ultimate solution for fully customizable mapping.

About the Library
Pan flutes (or pan pipes) are instruments that developed independently all over the world, featuring tuned pipes or tubes created from various kinds of wood or reed. For our library, we sampled the versatile Romanian nai, whose beautiful and breathy tone is instantly recognizable from countless film scores and albums. The nai offers a fairly large pitch range compared to many pan flutes, making it ideal as both a melodic and accompanying instrument for many styles.

We paired this instrument with a pan flute from an entirely different region - the powerful, bassy toyo, originating in the Andean Peru and Bolivia. So large is the toyo that it was traditionally played by two people; these performers (usually women), would become musically bonded and play only with each other. The toyo belongs to a greater family of pan flutes known as siku, which in turn gives its name to the musical genre known as sikuri.


- Ventus Winds Shakuhachi -
The debut instrument in our VENTUS Winds series of beautiful solo instruments. Includes 15 playing techniques and 600 pre-recorded phrases - 6,000 samples in total! An ornament system allows for unique, authentic performances and TACT (Total Articulation Control Technology) provides the ultimate solution for fully customizable mapping.

About the Instrument
Our first foray into sampling traditional Japanese instruments was Koto Nation, released in 2008. Since then, we've received countless requests to explore the shakuhachi next, making it the perfect choice for the first volume of Ventus!

The shakuhachi is an ancient end-blown flute used in Japanese music for over 1,300 years. Performing the instrument and using techniques like vibrato is significantly different than Western flutes and recorders. Its five (pentatonic) holes can produce several octaves of pitches with breathy, serene, and emotional tones.


- Ventus Winds Tin Whistle -
The second instrument in our VENTUS Winds series of beautiful solo instruments, featuring the enchanting sound of the Irish tin whistle. Includes 16 playing techniques and 450 pre-recorded phrases - 3,180 samples in total! An ornament system allows for unique, authentic performances and TACT (Total Articulation Control Technology) provides the ultimate solution for fully customizable mapping.

About the Library
The tin whistle - or feadog (Gaelic) - is a humble yet versatile recorder-like instrument that is firmly established as a mainstay of traditional Celtic music. Though this instrument family is among the most ancient on Earth, the tin whistle itself found its popularity in the 19th century within the United Kingdom in particular.

We chose this instrument not just for its cultural significance, but also its pure tone and incredible versatility. It can perform soaring, agile parts with gorgeous rapid ornamentation as well as slow, emotional lines that tug at your heartstrings. This flexibility has led the tin whistle to prominence in film, TV & game scoring as well, most notably in Howard Shore's score to the Lord of the Rings film trilogy.
