The general rule is as follows:violinists and violists use a harder, dryer rosincellists use a medium strong rosinbassists use a softer rosinAnother important aspect for choosing the right rosin is the core material of the string that are being used: steel strings are easier played if you use a hard, dry rosin. For synthetic, gut and gut wound strings, a softer rosin is recommended. Moreover, experienced players prefer softer rosin when playing in a studio and harder rosin in a concert hall. Hard rosin works best in tropical climates while soft rosin is good for cold climates.Pirastro develops their own specific rosin and design it according to the technical requirements of their different string lines.
