Product Overview

Details

The instrument features a wide array of articulations, including martelé, ricochet, and saltando, alongside dynamic crescendos and diminuendos. It captures the nuances of performance with a focus on both short and long notes, allowing for expressive phrasing. The recordings were made with two acoustically isolated ensembles at Synchron Stage Vienna, providing options for blending a larger ensemble sound with a more intimate close-mic’d perspective.

Articulation integration with the standard Duality Strings allows for seamless transitions between different playing techniques. The library includes legato runs, chromatic variations, and various types of glissandi, all designed to maintain a high level of musicality and control. The interface offers intuitive controls for adjusting dynamics and performance nuances, making it suitable for a range of scoring contexts, from orchestral compositions to contemporary film scores.
