Paiste Sound Creation Gongs, Earth
26, 32, 38 & 60 inch Sound Creation Earth Gongs (tam tams) have the most distinct voice and character of all the Paiste gongs.
In comparison to Symphonic and Planet gongs, Sound Creation gongs have a more raw and spread-out sound (in contrast the Sym & Planet gongs have a smoother and focused sound). The SC gongs have deep bass tones and great dynamics. They are great for sound baths, sound meditation, sound effects, music exploration & music therapy.The face of every 26, 32, 38 & 60 inch Sound Creation Gong has little indentations and bumps (aka nipples) and this along with the slightly thinner metal (compared to Paiste Symphonic gongs & Planet gongs) makes the vibrations move in unpredictable and beautifully expressive ways.
Every Sound Creation is hand hammered. The hand hammering along with the overall design and Paiste's secret nickel-silver alloy formula make each one a work of art with its own unique voice and personality. Sound Creation gongs live up to there name as each one is a fantastic creative force, making them a joy and wonder to experience. Plus, the more one does experience it, the greater and more positive the results.
