As beautiful as it sounds, a flute is very difficult to record especially if you are in a home studio. The flute itself being difficult we also need to factor in the musician. It’s behaviour and movements make the flute very difficult to record. As light as a flute maybe as an instrument, it carries such weight in inviting the musician to dance and move to its tune. Thus making it difficult to capture consistency when recording.
A problem with the flute itself is where the sound actually comes out, in this case sound comes out from different exit point not just your main mouth hole but in all other holes in the instrument.
