Afflato, a flute plugin that separates breath from tone
An upcoming audio plugin for flute players, designed to adjust breath independently from tone and add room, width, and a drone tuned to the player’s key.
- For
- Flute players shaping breath, tone, and room
- Worth noticing
- The page illustrates its separation with a 35-second quena-in-G example and a 4 dB breath reduction.
Field notes
The homepage pairs an interactive 35-second quena example, credited to Johnny and set in G, with a display that distinguishes breath from notes and harmonics. Its Soundcheck section says the plugin will listen briefly and set tone, breath, room, level, tuning, and drone key; the page also lists AU, VST3, and standalone versions. Afflato is marked “Coming soon,” so these are presented capabilities rather than verified release behavior.
