Sound Characteristics and Tonal Range
The unique sound characteristics of these planetary tuned gongs make them stand out among traditional gongs. Thanks to their precise tuning, these gongs produce a wide sound spectrum with sustained deep hums and delicate overtones. The sound can range from a soft whisper to a deep, resonant rumble. With more forceful strikes, the gong beautifully opens up, producing wave-like overtones.
