Synchron Duality Strings (ostinato)

Repeating patterns that drive momentum, create tension, and push the music forward are a cornerstone of modern composition. They may repeat on paper, but they should never sound repetitive! Often sitting at the center of a piece, they need to be expressive and full of life. And of course, you want the freedom to create your own patterns without being confined by pre-recorded phrases. Synchron Duality Strings (ostinato) delivers exactly that: a new level of flexibility for crafting fluid, driving, and captivating string patterns, shaped entirely by your musical ideas.
