You can find more information about Combination recorders here.The Scale length The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is cylindroconical and wider than other pentatonic recorders. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound. In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower inner bore. Who is this instrument aimed at? School classes that want to start with the pentatonic range and then later switch to the diatonic / chromatic range at a favourable price. The favourable change is made possible by the system of combination recorders. The windway of the recorderThe windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus of the instrument's sound. In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the defining principles for the response and sound of the flute.
Model 117-052 has a windway that is straight and cylindrical in shape. The volume of the instrument can be reduced with a sound strip (optional accessory) if required. Fingering The instrument pentatonic stars-recorder ("Sternen Recorder") 117-052 is manufactured in 7-tone pentatonic fingering. Multi-part designThe pentatonic stars-recorder ("Sternen Recorder") 117-052 is made in two parts. This concept - and the special design features of the stars-recorder ("Sternen Recorder") - make it possible to use it as a "combination recorder".
