Soniccouture has launched Balinese Flutes, which offer an authentic sound experience. A company spokesperson shared, “These genuine bamboo flutes (or suling) produce a beautiful breathy tone. Utilizing advanced phase-matching techniques, we’ve crafted a dynamic and expressive instrument that is both easy and inspiring to play.”
Here are further details directly from the company:
Balinese Flutes, known as Suling, are end-blown flutes commonly played solo, alongside gamelan ensembles, and occasionally in other group settings. Typically constructed from bamboo, these flutes feature six sound holes and come in various sizes, ranging from the large suling gambuh to the small suling kantilan. Our collection includes four different models.
Dynamic modeling ensures that Balinese Flutes are both simple and expressive to play. Advanced features such as dynamic legato, vibrato breath modulation, breath-to-pitch modulation, and instability emulation work together to provide a natural, intuitive keyboard experience.
Pricing and Availability: Available for £59 until August 1st (Regular price: £79).
