Gabrielle Flute is a true legato flute library performed by Gabrielle Davis.
Recorded at Orb Studios in Austin, TX – our goal was to create a series of flute patches that could address a wide range of orchestral contexts while prioritizing responsive playability. Like all of our solo instrument releases, no keyswitches are required – just play in what you want and use the modwheel (or CC# of your choice) for dynamics.
The ‘Workhorse’ patch is exactly that – a solid all-rounder that will likely suit the majority of your energetic flute-writing needs. ‘Emotional’ was performed mezzo piano – great for softer contexts. For the ‘Fat Lead’ patch, we asked Gabrielle to play with as much gusto and power as she could – resulting in an instrument that soars in the upper register with attacks that properly bite.
Like with our Barker Clarinet release, we recorded a series of short and long inhales with both the player and flute in position. Great patch to help sell the performance in between phrases.

QUICK FEATURES
With the Workhorse and Fat Lead patches, velocity 1-100 will trigger a starting sustain with progressive vibrato. Velocity 101-127 will trigger a starting sustain with a more immediate vibrato. Playing a starting sustain in the lower velocity range between 1-100 will subtly ‘soften’ the attack in the event you want a touch less bite.
These two patches also include round robin attacks for the 1-100 velocity range.
Gabrielle Davis is a flutist whose musical interests include performing contemporary, romantic and French Impressionistic works. Celebrated for her ‘resonant and soulful playing’ by Dr. Claudia Anderson, Gabrielle has earned her Bachelor of Music degree in Flute Performance from the University of North Texas. During her time at UNT, Gabrielle studied primarily under the tutelage of Dr. James Scott and Terri Sundberg. She is currently pursuing her master’s degree at the University of Texas in Austin under the tutelage of Marianne Gedigian. Gabrielle has also had the privilege of studying with the world-class flutists such as Ebonee Thomas, Maria Harding, Jezz Zook, Amy Taylor and Jim Walker
| PRO TIP |
The “Natural” patch variations can be great for solos that don’t share the same register as the accompaniment. It’s also great for doublings and harmonies with other instruments when used in more upbeat passages. The subtle (and not so subtle) pitch discrepancies playing against each other often adds a lot of life to arrangements.
While we like the adjustable reverb chosen for this library, we would suggest turning it off and putting the flute through your favorite reverb plugin to give it a sense of presence/space that suits your track.
To add extra realism and spice to your clarinet, try riding the pitch wheel slightly upwards quickly during more “difficult” passages to imitate sharp pitch corrections.
