Unlocking the Stradivarius Secret:

The Revolutionary Macau Violin and Its Timeless Sound

What is the hidden secret behind the legendary sound of the Stradivarius, the world’s most expensive and enigmatic violin?

 

For over 300 years, no one has been able to reproduce this sound - until now. After extensive research into overtones, OTS LAB from Japan has finally uncovered the mystery behind the Stradivarius' extraordinary sound. The result is the groundbreaking Macau Violin, crafted using this unparalleled technique. This instrument allows violinists seeking a unique and dynamic timbre to achieve it effortlessly.

The Overtones

The overtones of the Macau Violin differ significantly from those of antique violins. While ordinary violins develop some overtone effects over time, the Macau Violin is designed with rich overtones from the start. This is the secret behind the legendary sound of the Stradivarius.

There are several types of overtones, which are not mere resonances but multiples of fundamental tones. For instance, playing a fundamental tone on the Macau Violin can produce overtones that are 2, 3, 4, or even 5 times the fundamental frequency. This technology perfectly replicates the legendary sound of the Stradivarius, offering a full-bodied timbre that is vibrant and alive.

The Vision

We believe that instruments capable of producing such rich overtones are "treasures of mankind". Our vision is to share the beautiful and unique timbre of the Macau Violin with the world, allowing more musicians to appreciate this extraordinary sound. We are eager to collaborate with violin manufacturers who share this vision.
