Flute synthesis in PD: great!!!
Nicolas cited the work by
P. de La Quadra about flute sound synthesis:
is there any sample around?

I can handle the [orc-flute-1] object. A month or two for the simple release...
What about the complex one ;-)? Joking, thanks, for taking care about it... Definitely I'll be interested in testing it, in particular the fully-featured physical model ("the complex one"). I've the suspect that the "complex" model can only be handled by externals objects coded in C, maybe the "simple" one could be vanilla-pd?
As a flute player (at least I was few years ago...) I'll be inflexible in judging the results ;-)
About flute synthesis I also found this:

An interesting emulation (not really convincing) was made by

in VST for mac and win. Anyway, I never tried P. Cook STK objects, how is fidelity to real instrument there?
All the best,
