What is the activation pad for?
A tuning fork sounds best when it is struck firmly yet gently. This small pad serves exactly that purpose: strike the fork against the pad and you get a clean, even tone, without hitting the fork on a table edge, a book or your knee. The instrument stays protected and the sound starts reliably, the same way every time.
Why use a pad at all?
Many beginners strike the fork against their palm or a random object, which gives an uneven, sometimes distorted tone. With a purpose-made surface the movement becomes consistent: you can start the vibration with the same feel and the same force each time, which matters a great deal both in sound therapy sessions and in everyday practice.
Compact size, light weight
The pad measures 7 × 7 × 3.5 cm and weighs only 80 grams. It fits next to your tuning fork case, in your bag or on the corner of your treatment table, so it is always at hand at home and on the road.
Who is it for?
For everyone who works with tuning forks or is just getting started: sound therapists, music teachers and home users alike. If you are buying your first tuning fork, this small accessory will quickly become one of your most useful companions. Made in Germany.
