Paiste's Symphonic, Planet, Sound Creation Earth, Sound Creation Chakra, Accent & Deco Gongs

Symphonic Gongs have a smooth sound and clear fundamental tone with dynamic, rich overtones.  The Symphonics are the preferred gong for many sound therapists and yoga practitioners; and they are also beloved by percussionists & musicians Their smooth and rich tones are wonderful & beautiful therapeutic tools and amazing musical instruments.  The Symphonic gongs are available in widest variety of sizes, from 20" to the world's largest manufactured gong, 80 inches (6 feet, 8 inches)!!!

Planet gongs are essentially Symphonic gongs, which have been refined.  Each Planet gong is refined so that it's fundamental tone is tuned to the frequency of the planet or celestial body it is name after.  Planet gongs are also fantastic sound therapy tools & amazing musical instruments.  As with Symphonics, Planets are popular among sound therapists, yoga practitioners as well as percussionists & musicians.   Designed for Yoga and all forms of sound meditation.

Sound Creation Earth Gongs Sound Creation Earth Gongs have an expressiveness that is unique and special. The sounds and effects they produce can be described as mysterious, other-worldly, melodic choral-like, storm-like, cosmic-like, beautiful and very dynamic. The unique effects of the Sound Creation gongs is what makes them the gong that is perfect for sound explorers. They are wonderful sound mediation and sound baths and can be effective in sound therapy too.  Some of the special effects produced by Sound Creation gongs include the bending of notes (ascending and descending), expressive swells, growling-like effects, choral-like singing tones (our favorite!) and more.

Sound Creation Chakra Gongs The Sound Creation Chakra Gongs are made in there sizes, 11, 14 and 16", which correspond to the head (11"), chest (14") and abdomen (16") chakrass. The soothing & harmonious sounds produced from these gongs can clear and energize these chakras and increase flow in the mind and body. The can be used individual or in a set, which produces a synergistic effect.

Accent Gongs are special gongs with lively sound character. They are available in 7, 10, 14, 22, 26 & 28" sizes. The 22, 26 & 28" are most similar to Symphonic Gongs, with rich bass tones & beautiful harmonic overtones. The 7, 10 & 14" are more focused and bell-like compared to the larger sizes and are especially great accents to larger, low-pitched gongs. The richer sound structure of the 22, 26 & 28" Accent Gongs make them effective for sound baths on their own as well as in sets and as accents to other gongs of similar or larger sizes.

Deco Gongs - 7", 10", 13" gongs; as with the larger Paiste gongs, Deco gongs are hand hammered.  As a set they are very pleasing and they make excellent accent gongs, adding layers and harmonies to larger gong set-ups.  They are also beautiful to the eye and wonderful for decoration.  Contact us for Deco Gongs.
