Meinl Sonic Energy OSTD1BKE - Octave Steel Tongue, D Kurd
Product information "Meinl Sonic Energy OSTD1BKE - Octave Steel Tongue, D Kurd"
The Meinl Sonic Energy Octave Steel Tongue Drum is made of high-quality stainless steel. It has a central bass tone in the centre, which is surrounded by eight other tones. These eight tone fields consist of two tongues each, which reproduce the tone in two octaves. This creates a wonderful, meditative sound that is similar to that of a handpan.
The sound hole is located on the underside of the drum, which can be closed with a silicone plug to make the sound even more compact. There are also three silicone feet on the bottom to prevent the drum from slipping. You can play the Octave Steel Tongue Drum with mallets or, if desired, with your fingers. Simply place the drum on a flat surface or on your lap to start playing.

Since 2014 Meinl Sonic Energy has enriched Meinl's range with a unique world of sound and relaxation. The range offers virtually endless applications and possibilities to slow down everyday life with sound and create small relaxed respites. The instruments are mainly used to support the treatment of depression, anxiety, insomnia, addiction withdrawal and pain management, but also as an aid for meditation and yoga. Meinl Sonic Energy also offers a variety of smaller instruments that are perfect for the desk in the office or home office or the living room, making it easy to get started in the inspiring world of sound from these series. The range is further complemented by Handpans, Steel Tongue Drums and Didgeridoos, which are appreciated by hobby musicians and professional artists alike.
In collaboration with influential artists in sound therapy, the range is continuously improved and expanded. The Flower of Life Gong, developed for example with Jens Zygar, and other gong series such as the Chakra Gongs as well as the planetary gongs are all painstakingly handmade in Germany. The tuning forks, also handcrafted in Germany, are used in both professional and private settings and, like singing bowls, provide an excellent entry point into the calming world of Meinl Sonic Energy and the possibilities it offers.
To experience the complete Meinl Sonic Energy range with all your senses, we recommend you visit our Walldorf branch. On site we host the first Meinl Flagship Store in Europe, where you can find the entire Meinl Sonic Energy portfolio and of course play and try everything out.
