The bansuri is a side-blown bamboo flute with six finger holes, native to the Indian subcontinent. It is made from a raw piece of bamboo cane tightly wrapped with silk or nylon thread. This instrument is associated with the Hindu god Krishna, who is often depicted playing it.
Three Instruments
The library contains three bansuris in the keys of E, D, and A. Although the instruments are diatonic, this software instrument provides chromatic keyboard mappings for them. Typical playing techniques include distinctive vibrato, bends, portamento, and falls at the end of notes or phrases.
Stage A
To convey the impressive atmosphere of Synchron Stage’s “Stage A,” our engineers used seven phase-coherent microphone configurations, covering a wide range of room acoustics. All signals are available as separate channels in the Vienna Synchron Player mixer section. A wide selection of presets offers ideal mixer settings and serves as an excellent starting point for creating your own sounds.
Virtuoso Performance
Both duduks included in this package were played by multi-instrumentalist, folk instrument expert, and member of the Synchron Stage orchestra, Veronika Vitazkova. She has performed in numerous orchestras, including the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, and the Tonkunstler Orchestra.
