A handful of controllers

Dynamics

Go from soft to loud using your modwheel, adding further expression to your playing.

True Mid/Side
Stereo width

Recorded using Mid/Side technique.
Mono compatible.

Bow noise

Control the friction noise between the bow and strings in real time.

Reverb

Recorded in a studio for detailed sound, with a hint of reverb for added depth.

Lookahead

Lookahead is an smart controller that adapts the instrument's "speed response"
to optimize its sound for faster or slower melodies, ensuring the best performance in any musical context.
Lower lookahead sounds better on faster melodies. Has less latency.
Higher lookahead sounds better on slower melodies. Has more latency.
Compensate the latency in your DAW's track.
Easily switch between a zero latency mode (Record mode) and a previously set Lookahead value (Playback mode).
