General Information

On the contrary, it complements and expands its sonic possibilities.Core Technology and Shared Philosophy
Both SWAM Flutes V3 and SWAM VariFlute are built on the same core: SWAM technology, ensuring the high accuracy, responsiveness, and sonic quality that define all Audio Modeling instruments. They share a common goal — delivering natural expressiveness and professional-grade realism — but they differ in scope, design, and intended use.SWAM Flute (Flutes V3): Realistic, Keyed Acoustic Flutes
SWAM Flute (also referred to as Flutes V3) uses SWAM technology in a specialized configuration. It includes finely tuned DSP models of specific real-world flutes, such as:

These instruments feature keys, and the SWAM engine faithfully reproduces their acoustic identity, playing behavior, and articulation detail.
This makes SWAM Flute the perfect choice for musicians looking for highly realistic, traditional performance and who need to replicate authentic classical or orchestral flute parts with precision.SWAM VariFlute: Creative Exploration Without Limits
SWAM VariFlute employs a streamlined version of the SWAM engine — simpler in structure, yet more versatile in sound design.
Instead of replicating specific instruments, VariFlute is designed to model flutes without keys, such as:

It allows full access to the core modeling parameters, giving users deep control over the instrument’s behavior and tone. You can shape unique timbres that don’t exist in the real world, making it ideal for:

Whether you're looking for faithful acoustic emulation or a tool for creativity and experimentation, both products uphold the SWAM quality standard, each serving distinct musical purposes.

SWAM VariFlute is free for existing SWAM Flute users (desktop version only), and available at an accessible price for all others — making it the perfect gateway to Physical Modeling.
