    I play a 22" wind gong in my drum circle. I like because I can choke, or mute it to various degrees. I place it between my legs, standing or sitting, and can control the amount of ring, muffle, and mute. This allows me to play it like a real instrument, and not just for making noise. No other gong can give you that much control.
    It's also very good for meditation, with a very subtle, gentle sound.

    Thanks for this video. I had no idea there were so many to choose from but you made a task much easier. I refuse to yell through the house when dinner is ready, we don't have an intercom system and got the gong idea from the dressing gong on Downton Abbey.

    If you haven't seen the videos on the 80" Paiste Symphonic gong, I'd recommend watching (and listening with headphones). The sound and sustain is astonishing. Standing near one is like getting a full body massage (including your internal organs). ;) Thanks Kalani!

    chau gong, hard mallet, towards the outside, firm hit. Hell, yes!
    Though I must say, with a softer mallet, I love the sound of the wind gong.
    The waver of the Javanese gong as the sound decays is just extremely intriguing.

    The Feng gong will sound best when beat directly in the middle.
    Feng = wind (Shui = water)

    Hello Maestro. I preferably like the more oriental asian gongs.. not because I'm asian but because the harmonic from the asian gong is much more compare to the symphonic. It's like if you hit it once and let it ring... it produce a nice harmonic "dialogue" within the gong.

    The javanese instrument here is a kempul, not a gong. To be called a gong it would need to be about twice as big and at least an octave lower. And that instrument is really not in tune; it should have a very clear pitch and almost no clanging in the high end.
