Ultrasonic Death Whistle

Ultrasonic Death Whistle by MNTRA Instruments turns rare pre-Columbian death whistles into an expressive virtual instrument for dark, atmospheric music and sound design. Performed by composer and multi-instrumentalist Brian D’Oliveira, its 13 instrument sample maps capture the distinct voices of individual handmade whistles, including instruments crafted in MNTRA’s own studio. Expect eerie, breath-driven textures suited to horror cues, tense game audio, cinematic layers and experimental productions. The included MNDALA engine offers three-axis control and an animated performance interface for exploring sounds and building patches beyond straightforward sample playback. Recordings sourced at 32-bit/384kHz and up to 31 round robins provide detailed material for shaping unsettling performances. Available as a VST/AU plugin with no additional software required, it suits producers and composers looking for an unusual acoustic sound source with interactive control. The installed library occupies 4 GB.
