Audio Imperia – Fluid Woods (KONTAKT)

Fluid Woods marks the third collaboration between Audio Imperia and Performance Samples, and it follows the goals of Fluid Woods: fast, short-note sampling in an easy-to-use interface.

As with Fluid Brass, Fluid Woods combines the sampling concepts of Performance Samples’ Fluid Shorts line with Audio Imperia’s sophisticated approach to consistent, high-level product design. This unique combination provides you with the best library of short-note brass instruments with smooth, fast playability.

The instrument configuration is traditional: solo flute, solo oboe, solo clarinet, solo bassoon and solo piccolo – recorded tutti in the same room as Fluid Brass. The library features up to 8 dynamics and 6 repetition rates, surpassing even Fluid Brass in terms of expression.

Intuitive

No need to worry about managing complex details with key switches and envelopes. Fluid Woods handles it all, adapting to the speed of your playing, allowing you to create fluid, realistic performances without much effort.

Comprehensive

Everything you need to write symphonic brass. Smooth, fast, and catchy repeating melodies that bridge the gap between digital technology and the feel of a live performance.

Lush Sound

Recorded in the same lush-sounding hall as Dolce: Romantic Chamber Strings, as well as Pacific, Caspian, and Con Moto from Performance Samples.

Harmonized Experience

With Fluid Woods, the combined efforts of Audio Imperia and Performance Samples take another step towards creating the best tools for composers and producers around the world.

Deeply sampled

Fluid Woods was sampled in incredible detail, featuring up to 8 dynamic layers and up to 10 circular repeats. All samples are taken from real performances to enhance the energy of your scores. We also recorded samples at different speeds (six in total), with faster speeds automatically triggered based on the speed of your performance. This extensive sampling covers faster phrases, resulting in smoother and more realistic results, as you are directly triggering samples taken from faster performances.

Recorded in Jihlava

Based on Jasper Blank’s experience with spaces, the studio in Jihlava, known for its lush sound, was ideal for recording this project.
