Details

The instrument captures the rich sound of low strings, recorded at the Synchron Stage Vienna, ensuring exceptional acoustics. Articulations include real legatos, glissandos, espressivo, swells, trills, and pizzicatos, allowing for expressive performances. The ensemble's coherence is enhanced by the musicians' instinctive adjustments in intonation and tone color, resulting in a well-balanced timbre.

Multiple microphone positions are available, including a Decca tree setup, which offers flexibility in mixing. This allows for a range of sonic options, from a close, detailed sound to a more ambient mix. The instrument is designed to integrate seamlessly into orchestral compositions, making it suitable for various scoring contexts where a strong low string presence is required.
