AVANTGARDE Contra Bass Recorder, resona black, including case (with wheels), stand, instructions, cork grease and fingering chart. Since 2007, the Kunath Instrumentenbau workshop has been producing parts for woodwind instruments using a special 3D printing process. The main aim was to use a material that sounds like wood and is made from renewable raw materials. As there was no material on the market that met these requirements, the team at Kunath Instrumentenbau, with the support of the Ministry of Science and Research, developed its own material: RESONA. Renowned artists such as Dorothee Oberlinger and composers such as Josh Plotner use instruments made of instruments from RESONA in live concerts and studio recordings. Kunath Avantgarde is considered the new benchmark for sub-bass recorders. The overblowing key Over 40 years ago, Herbert Paetzold invented the automatic overblowing key. With Avantgarde, we are making this practical mechanism available for the first time on a "non-square" bass recorder. The special advantages of the overblowing key: firstly, it produces a more relaxed posture for the left hand, as the thumb can move closer to the position of the other fingers. Secondly, the overblowing key makes it easier to play high notes and octave leaps. A small movement of the tip of the thumb is enough to reliably activate the overblowing hole. Scale length The inner bore of the recorder is cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the instrument its powerful sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more ensemble-compatible than instruments with a narrower inner bore. The cap As RESONA is extremely dimensionally stable, AVANTGARDE recorders do not suffer from cap jamming due to moisture. In order to ensure undisturbed airflow between the blowpipe, cap and windway in the head, AVANTGARDE has a new type of connection between the cap and head. The cap is perfectly fitted or removed with just half a turn. Avantgarde is 40% lighter than normal sub-bass recorders because it is made of RESONA in a 3D printing process optimized for musical instruments. 3D printing process optimized for musical instruments. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the defining element of a recorder's sound. At the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore very influential The 6605-072-AS model from Kunath Instrumentenbau has a windway that is curved and conical in shape. Conical windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrically shaped ones. Windways are naturally very complex in their design and many parameters are influenced by each other.
