This volatile interplay can make it difficult to completely control movement and sound. Thomastik-Infeld automatic strings provide the perfect support here – they are less sensitive to changes in the contact point between string and bow. This allows these strings to compensate for any possible losses in quality (e.g.: response, sound density, tone beauty) and react predictably and reliably. They provide a comfortable and balancing feeling, comparable to the automatic transmission of a car. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe RONDO Experience\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e®\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThe Thomastik-Infeld RONDO Experience\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRO41XP is a very vibrant string and offers an exceptional amount of sparkle and overtone richness compared to the regular RO41. It reacts even faster to bowing impulses from the right hand and at the same time produces a clear, distinct sound with minimum effort from the left hand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe string has 700g less string tension, but it is exceptionally powerful and creates a very compact sound despite a broad range of tonal colors, unlike other softer strings. However, unlike the standard RO41, the sound density of the RO41XP is lower. Even though it feels softer (than the RO41), it offers a nice resistance. Compared to the RO41, the RO41XP is more sensitive to bow pressure and bowing speed, offering a higher capacity for modulation. Due to its forgiving character, the RO41XP maintains contact close to the bridge very reliably even when the bow pressure is insufficient.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDue to its even faster response (see RO41), the Thomastik-Infeld RONDO Experience\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRO41XP allows impulsive interpretations and new playing experiences as a result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thomastik-Infeld","offers":[{"title":"A \/ Experience","offer_id":44529008279663,"sku":"RO41XP","price":110.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A \/ Rondo","offer_id":44529008312431,"sku":"RO41","price":104.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"C \/ Rondo","offer_id":44529008345199,"sku":"RO44","price":272.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"D \/ Rondo","offer_id":44529008377967,"sku":"RO42","price":102.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"G \/ Rondo","offer_id":44529008410735,"sku":"RO43","price":234.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2992\/8815\/files\/md_2022012710361524958_72e1d4bf-ccff-4587-adc6-b17e74f7b528.jpg?v=1773244045","url":"https:\/\/sol-school-of-music-and-instrument-store-2.myshopify.com\/products\/thomastik-infeld-rondo-cello-strings","provider":"Sol School of Music and Instrument Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
