If you can't turn the strobe power down enough, you might use a ND
filter to get the aperture you want?

I bought a universal soft box for my studio strobes about five years ago, when
I was kinda somewhat into doing more studio photography. Then I never used it.
It’s a pain in the butt to set up and changing the setting once you’ve buttoned
it all up requires the skills of a contortionist. But Grace wanted me to shoot
her in the studio. And I do have that 24-70/2.8 to play with. Brick walls
aren’t exactly inspiring. So we did a set of pis. I’ll post the whole gallery
of about a dozen of so once i’ve rendered them all, but here’s one. Grace has
great modeling instincts. The soft box is okay even though it’s pain in the
butt.
The softbox was to care left and a second strobe firing into an umbrella was
high to camera right, a stop or two down from the soft box setting. had to
shoot at f11 to get the exposure I wanted. Would have preferred f4 or so, but
this works. The background texture doesn’t show, and i definitely wouldn’t have
wanted it any sharper. Lens was at 70m here.
