PROFESSIONAL

Thomastik-Infeld DOMINANT PRO® NO.DP400: For all you pros.

INSPIRATION REDEFINED

Inspired by the sound of a tube amplifier and using the playing possibilities created by an innovative metal core, DOMINANT PRO® redefines past tonal ideals. The set has an airy, light sound character with pronounced, brilliant overtones and a pleasantly warm basic timbre with plenty of texture. DOMINANT PRO® is a sheer joy to play.

MODULATIONPLUS

Highest modulation capacity of timbres and sound structure: depending on the playing style, the sound of the strings can be formed with incredible brilliance or to be warm, round and saturated. The sound structure can be wonderfully modulated from fine-grained to coarse-grained.

SHHH … POW!

The dynamic range extends from an airy and delicate pianissimo (pp) to a rich fortissimo (ff).

FASTER THAN EVER

DOMINANT PRO® is the name of the fastest and most direct response within the Thomastik-Infeld cello string repertoire. Especially at high bow speed, the strings develop their supporting resonance.

STRUCTURE

Rich colors and also an especially structured sound!

 

NO.DP41

This A-string has an airy, light sound character with a warm sound foundation. Its pronounced brilliance means the NO.DP41 always delivers a beautiful brightness. Its timbre and the distinctive sound structure can be modulated in many ways, from fine-grained to coarse-grained. The A-string is quickly and easily ready to play.

Technical Details

NO.DP42

The D-string NO.DP42 is also characterized by an airy and light sound character but is somewhat warmer than the A-string. It is the tonal prime example of a cello D-string – warm, round, singing – and creates a homogeneous connection to the G- and C-strings. However, its sonorous sound in the upper registers is exceptional.

Technical Details

NO.DP43

The NO.DP43 G-string has a dark, warm color with a slightly metallic brilliance. Unlike tungsten-wound G-strings, it offers slightly less modulation capacity, but has a very sustaining focus.

Technical Details

NO.DP44

The C-string NO.DP44 has an intense dark and particularly rich sound. Its beautiful bass-baritone sound with seductively growly notes supports the resonance of the whole set.
