Woodwinds in Motion
Century Ostinato Woodwinds offers a deep gamma of samples focused on repeating patterns and tempo-synced runs. Volume 1 includes Flutes and Clarinets, while Volume 2 includes Oboes and Bassoons. Each instrument section was recorded individually, allowing for complete flexibility and customization in the compositional process.
The beauty behind the Century Ostinato series is its live recorded dynamic phrases. Each pattern is available across the entire range of the instrument at multiple dynamics, all while maintaining the same feel and human-like inaccuracies of a real performance, and with host synchronized capabilities.
In addition to repeating ostinato phrases, Ostinato Woodwinds includes a huge array of tempo-synced runs in all keys (major, natural minor, harmonic, and melodic) as well as tempo-synced tonguing patterns. Everything was recorded at slow and fast tempos to ensure it will sync with your projects naturally. Ostinato Woodwinds also features single-note staccatissimo and marcato notes, offering you a complete package for rhythmic passages.
The entire Ostinato series was painstakingly captured at 96 kHz before being carefully down-sampled to 48 kHz for ease of streaming. Each recording session featured only the very best recording equipment, ensuring an impeccably maintained analog signal path. This not only preserves and enhances the accuracy and character of each instrument, but helps us to truly honor the sound of these master musicians.
Century is and always will be more than a collection of sample libraries to us. Each one tells the story of our musical journey: emotional, distinct, and undoubtedly one of the most realistic series of instruments ever launched. And with Century Ostinato Woodwinds we have gone beyond realism, bringing you the best that large scale, phrase-based sampling has to offer.

LISTEN:
AN ARMY OF RUNS
We recorded runs in major, melodic, and harmonic scales, fast and slow, short (1 bar) and long (2 bars). Everything syncs to the host tempo. We tailor-made these because we know that no matter how hard you try, nothing can beat the original. You could write your runs using individual notes, but they will never sound as real as a properly played run.
PERFECTLY IMPERFECT
All the instruments of Ostinato Woodwinds have the same patterns recorded at the same tempos, and they adapt to your host tempo instantly. No matter what tempo you use, Ostinato Winds will stay in sync without losing the human imperfections that bring music to life.
MIX IT YOUR WAY
Century Ostinato Woodwinds comes with a prepared Mix microphone perspective that offers a great sound right out of the box. Additionally, individual Close, Decca, and Wide microphone positions allow you to customize your mix, whether it's close and dry or distant and lush.
