Leaf Flute
The sound of a simple leaf

The story
Back when we were kids we used to convert many types of leafs to sound instruments. We made this for fun. I remember the technique which is very simple.
Fold the leaf and trap the air at the bottom. Blow air and make a vibrating sound to the side. It sounds like a party blow, but no exactly: I included the
natural sound in the presets, but also made three additional versions: a granular pad, a stacato version and a sort of cat miau created using Krush bit crusher.
In the following example I used all except the natural preset: There are 4 presets: Natural, Granular, Staccato and Miau

Sounds exactly as I'd want, but...
I don't believe it's tuned right, unfortunately. However, the character is perfect for various genres. Might have to resample to get it to work.
Sounds weird but with...
With convolver on blur preset, it sounds like a gorgeous ambient pad!
