AB  - Dual resonance reconstructs a scattering amplitude from pole expansions in different channels. We propose analytic dual resonance (ADR), requiring that the complete leading pole sum at an integer resonance admit an absolutely convergent local contour integral. ADR yields one-dimensional pairing relations between residues in arbitrary triangulations. Together with an integer planar spectrum, a joint crossing-spin bound, and complex Regge decay permitting unsubtracted reconstruction, these relations uniquely fix the scalar string amplitude for every n≥5. ADR also predicts higher-dimensional pinch relations, which we examine at five and six points. These results connect the analytic structure of dual resonance to the uniqueness of string interactions.
