On February 23, 2021, Thomastik-Infeld in Vienna-Austria presented a new generation of strings, namely DOMINANT PRO . The Dominant PRO strings are a logical continuation and refinement of the well-known Dominant strings and are ideally suited for chamber musicians, soloists and orchestral musicians.
The main features, according to Thomastik, are:

- High level of dynamics suitable for solo playing
- Easy approachability
- Permanent support of the appearance of the instrument
- A wall-to-wall range of sound colours
The following strings comprise the Dominant Pro range (E strings ball/loop-end, rest ball-end):
