  • Paiste Symphonic Gong

    The orchestral tam-tam

    Gong · Germany

    Paiste's Symphonic gongs are the tam-tams most orchestral parts assume: a broad, unpitched wash that builds slowly and takes a long time to die. They are made in diameters up to eighty inches.

  • Paiste Planet Gongs

    Gongs tuned to calculated planetary frequencies

    Gong · Germany

    The Planet Gongs are tuned to frequencies derived from the orbital periods of the planets, a scheme that comes from sound-therapy practice rather than from orchestral tradition. They are widely used in film scoring and sound work.

  • Paiste Sound Creation Gongs

    Gongs built for specific characters

    Gong · Germany

    The Sound Creation series gives each gong a name and a purpose — Earth, Sun, Fire — with hammering and shaping aimed at a particular spectral character rather than a general wash.
