Straubinger pads
Drawn and Curled
Die Wände werden aus dem Korpusmaterial hochgezogen, wodurch die Flöte einen breiten, leichten Klang erhält.
Key Types
Covered (or Plateau) keys are easy to use. The pad cup is covered so it will seal the tonehole any time the key is closed. This is common with beginners or others who may not always press the center of the key.
Many advanced players prefer the open feel of Ring keys for subtle control of their tone. Intermediate and Standard model French system flutes come with key plugs to seal the hole until players have become adept at covering the holes with their fingers.

Many players find the Offset G configuration easier to play. Often teachers recommend that beginners start on these flutes, while more and more advanced players are also choosing this natural feeling configuration. Many advanced students and professionals, though, still prefer the traditional In-line formation where all the toneholes are in a straight row.

The B footjoint has an extra key enabling the player to play 1/2 step lower than the lowest note of the C foot. It also affects the sound; B footjoint enables a darker, stronger sound with good projection, while C footjoint has flexible, warmer tone.

Features
Type AM Kopfstück
Das Type AM Kopfstück wurde gleichzeitig mit den neuen 9X7 und 8X7 handmade Flöten entwickelt. Es bietet einen fein balancierten Blaswiderstand über den gesamten Tonumfang und erlaubt dem Flötisten eine farbenreiche Klanggestaltung und ein großes dynamisches Spektrum.
Straubinger™ Phoenix Polster (YFL-700/600)
Der Einsatz von Straubinger™ Phoenix Polstern erlaubt ein präziseres Polstern und anhaltend stabile Justierung. Die härtere Oberfläche bietet eine schnelle Ansprache und ein klares Klangbild.
Größere Wandstärke (YFL-700/600)
Die vom Standardmaß 0,38mm auf 0,43mm erhöhte Wandstärke gibt ein bisschen mehr Blaswiderstand, einen intensiveren Klang und größere musikalische Flexibilität.
Pinless Left-hand Key System(YFL-597(H),697(H),797(H) only)
Utilizes the “pinless left-hand key system,” the ideal configuration for handmade flutes. This improves high F-F# key operation, and because there are no pins, maintenance is easier.

A#, F# and other non-fingered keys feature pointed key arms. Found on Handmade Flute, their beautiful designs are inspired by traditional European styling.
Klappendesign
