Sanctus is formulated to provide more possibilities in the sound of stringed instruments. This unique combination of two sophisticated rosin formulas provides the optimum sound and bow control balance. These formulas have been put into two separate areas in one special rosin cake to show the clear definition of their roles.
The outer ring formula has been designed to give a silky smooth playing feel and to produce a focused sound on the strings. The centre formula responds and kicks in when the player demands more power and gutsiness from their instrument. Combined, these formulas' sound is noticeably more focused with enhanced tonal strength.
