We teamed up with our luthier (a master who makes string instruments) and designed the instrument from scratch in search of new sounds, timbres and sound realisation possibilities. We created Circle Strings.

Circle Strings is an unusual instrument that can make sound in all sorts of ways: bowing or pinching strings, hitting an instrument, and so on. Anything is possible. The secret is the resonance of his sympathetic body.It all started when we decided that finding new sounds was the path to success. We called our luthier and designed an instrument designed for experiments. After months of trial and error, he was ready, and since no one had done this before, we decided to capture his sound from any possible angle and microphone. Contact, pendant, close, directional, dynamic, bottom and even internal microphones. After countless hours of sampling, editing and programming, you have a wonderful library designed to enrich your compositions with new sound colors and resonant adventures!

To expand the functionality of Circle Strings, we also recorded dozens of sound effects, provided the library with a full interface, including an effects panel and the latest version of Chaos FX, and created presets to offer you examples of what can be achieved! Finally, we used the superstring method to create long loops that can be used to enrich sound organically!
