Within the Meinl Sonic Energy universe, this model emphasizes the \u003cstrong\u003emeditative and sonic dimension\u003c\/strong\u003e of the instrument, suitable both for atmospheric music and for relaxation practices, sound baths, or bodywork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho This Gong Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003e30 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e gong is aimed at musicians, percussionists, and sound practitioners seeking an \u003cstrong\u003eexpressive\u003c\/strong\u003e instrument that is easy to integrate into a compact setup. Ideal for \u003cstrong\u003ebeginner to advanced\u003c\/strong\u003e levels, it is suitable for sound illustration (film, theater), \u003cstrong\u003eambient\u003c\/strong\u003e and experimental atmospheres, as well as rituals, breathing sessions, yoga, and relaxation. Its diameter makes it particularly relevant for small spaces, frequent transport, and mobile performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Innovations\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe almost flat design, typical of the Wind Gong, promotes a \u003cstrong\u003erapid unfolding of the spectrum\u003c\/strong\u003e and a \"wave\" sound sensation. When played softly, the instrument favors \u003cstrong\u003edeep fundamentals\u003c\/strong\u003e and a gentle diffusion. When the attack becomes more pronounced, the gong responds with a marked opening, revealing \u003cstrong\u003eundulating harmonics\u003c\/strong\u003e and increasing complexity. Each gong comes with a \u003cstrong\u003etraditional mallet\u003c\/strong\u003e sized to best exploit the surface's response, allowing easy transition from soft playing to more intense crescendos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003especial bronze alloy\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a rich sonic signature with excellent durability over time. The response combines a stable low base with a layer of harmonics that develop progressively, resulting in a very lively sound, ideal for crescendos, rolls, and transitions. Thanks to its almost flat shape, the gong offers a broad sense of openness, with \u003cstrong\u003elong sustain\u003c\/strong\u003e and enveloping diffusion, especially appreciated in relaxation and ambiance creation contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eyin and yang\u003c\/strong\u003e symbolism associated with this model highlights this sonic duality: softness and depth with light playing, energy and movement as intensity increases. This versatility allows for working on fine nuances, controlled attacks, and timbre evolutions, while maintaining a warm and expansive identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrument size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSmall\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccessories included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSticks, Cover\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003egong\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinishing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eMatt\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003egong\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e12 \u0026quot;\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ebronze\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ealmost flat\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003etraditional mallet (designed to match the gong size)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Sonic Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357006549267,"sku":"409240","price":115.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/c21275850b6323cc273eb209786c1b55b5e9e5aa_MEINL_WGYY12.jpg?v=1792513488","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/sonic-energy-12-wind-gong-yin-yang-409240","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
