Ophicleide

The ophicleide is a conical-bore brass instrument belonging to the bugle family that is similar to the tuba. It replaced the serpent that was considered outdated in the Romantic orchestra. The instrument was recorded in the relatively dry and controlled environment of our second studio, the Silent Stage, and offers all typical articulations.

Overview

  • Short and long notes, dynamics, legato, repetitions

  • Recorded at Silent Stage

  • Mixer Presets for authentic placement at Synchron Stage Vienna

  • Switch off internal reverb for placement in any virtual acoustic environment

  • The ophicleide was invented in 1817 by French instrument maker Jean Hilaire Asté and belongs to the bugle family. Its name is derived from the Greek word ophis (“serpent”) and kleis (“keys”), since it was conceived of as a “serpent with keys”. Its cupped mouthpiece is similar to modern trombone and euphonium mouthpieces.
