Alto-Recorder

A warm sounding Alto-Recorder with longs and shorts and three round robins

The story

My wife used to be a teacher for recorder and alto-recorder. Making my first attempts to create decent sampler intruments. I had do record her playing her favourite instrument.

Try it out and replace cello or voice tracks with the alto-recorders warm sound. Bach’s cello suites and Schubert’s songs can be a starting point for your own alto-recording journeys.

V1.1: I performed some additional tuning to make the recorder fit better to other instruments.

Here is a demo with Schubert’s Frozen Tears:

  • An Underrated Instrument

    I loved playing with this, especially with the delay on. It sounded like somebody playing it on top of a mountain. I think the recorder is a very underrated instrument and this Alto recorder sounds very beautiful.
