New system Headjoint TITANIUM Stopper plug |
This is a device that replaces the standard cork stopper. It leaves the headjoint to vibrate more freely thanks to the very small contact surface (has only one little rubber gasket, installed and centered handmade). It consists of one piece to fit in the same way you mount the standard cork stopper. It is made of TITANIUM, oxidation resistant almost as platinum, extraordinary hardness/weight ratio. It weighs about 40% less than steel but with similar resistance. This system will make your flute easier to play at lower notes, and especially the second and third octave sound become warmer and ready. |

Mechanic | we have installed for the first time a pinless mechanics with an exclusive design, called PINLESS ULTRATEC®, which allows maximum precision and silence. Our ULTRATEC® mechanics is characterized by the total absence of adjustment screws and a series of special levers prevents the keys from easily lose their settings, and allows fluidity and manageability never seen before, even for the most difficult virtuosic passages. |

E-Mechanism or without E-Mechanism__________ |
A split E mechanism allows venting only one G key while fingering high E. This facilitates production of the high E and it provides a more stable response.

SYNTHETIC PADS
HIGH PRECISION STRAUBINGER |
These world-renowned pads are made of mostly synthetic materials. The advantage of this is that they do not absorb moisture and as a result do not change shape. This consistency gives the pads a high degree of reliability.
Synthetic pads, which are made using a stable plastic base and durable synthetic leather, have been widely adopted as essential components of a high quality Handmade flute. Compared to traditional felt and paper pads that require frequent adjustments, Straubinger pads are more tolerant of environmental change and remain in top playing condition for a longer period of time.Synthetic pads with stabilizer enables the player to achieve a clear response with a more mature, nuanced sound. |
Open Holes with plugs | central openings are covered by the fingertips when depressed. Students may use temporary plugs to cover the holes in the keys until they master the more precise finger placement needed to play open-hole keys. Some players state that open-hole keys permit louder and clearer sound projection in the flute’s lower register.Open holes can be used for effects such as bending and shading, and the player can crack some holes to bring pitch back up when playing softly on high register notes. Playing open holes requires and therefore develops fingering accuracy that is not essential on plateau keys. Some clever trills that make use of the open hole venting for better pitch. Open hole flutes can be used as closed hole by inserting plugs in the holes |
Offset G or In Line G |
the G keys are offset slightly from the rest of the keys, mounted on their own posts, separate from the other keys. A growing number of flutists prefer the comfort and hand position on the offset G flute.
At request you can order flute with IN LINE G |
French Pointed Arms | A key design that connects keys to the rod with a raised, pointed arm which extends to the center of the key. Also refered to as “Styled keys”. It gives more strenght to the keys. |
Engraved Keys | It gives an elegant touch to the flute. Available at request. |
