Zenko is a tongue drum (also called tank drum or hank drum) designed and created by Metal Sounds. This metal-made melodic percussion is the result of a long research & development program leaded by the Metal Sounds' team, in collaboration with scientists and experts of the metal industry. All has been studied: the raw-material (stainless steel), the blades cutting, the assembling, the finish... And the result is up to it!
The Zenko spreads its sounds like smooth and soft waves. Its high harmonics content comes from a perfect tuning that is also reliable along the years. It will produce some differents sounds depending on the kind of play: by hands or with the sticks (included).
The Equinox scale is a G major original scale. A G3 in the center will give a deep bass that will be used as a pivot. This scale is particular, including a minor mood in the Keys of B and E, so it's very versatile and can be used in any creative composition and/or jam session. For "open minded" artists!
The Zenko can also be played in a standing position, on a
collapsable and adjustable stand specifically designed for it. An essential accessory to increase your mobility with your Zenko.
