I might be beating a dead horse, and I'm sure many will say it better than me, but these are not the same. A paiste gong (or anything by most other western gong manufacturers) is a musical instrument made to function in a western musical setting, more often than not in an orchestra. Therefore the tuned sound can be a massive detrament to playing with pitched instruments who's tuning will inevitably clash with the gong - not to mention you would then need a gong tuned to every note just for it to be viable in every possible setting. This is massively expensive, and a very different effect than what gongs usually are treated as - really big and loud cymbals (specifically suspended cymbals, not the type you smash two of). This means that a scientific approach to create consistent, non-pitched gong which can be replicated a hundred times over (although there is an immesurable amount of mastery put into Paiste gongs as well) can create a cheaper product and more musical product for those among us who intend to create music with these. The types of gongs shown here are of course usable, but are more ritualistic/spiritual in nature (hence the decorations and the such) I'm not actually trying to say you are wrong, but just that it might be a little misguiding.
As someone who has used a fairly large symphonic gong (3 ft diameter), let me tell you that nothing feels more incredible than standing right next to a resonating gong
@@LobstersLobsters no it does not. The gongs shown in the video make a comparison between very small vibrating surfaces and a very big one. It is natural that big surfaces produce a deep pitch while smaller ones, like the thai gongs produce a higher pitch. It has nothing to do with craftsmanship as a small gong made, by using the german system of testing the pitch, will create a much more accurate sound than handmade thai gongs. This is not to devalue thai craftsmanship but more about the difference between scientifically produced instruments and handmade ones.
um. I'm leaning towards objection towards the statement that German made gongs are made using science while the Thai gongs are made with craftsmanship. The two gongs are, in fact, not the same instrument, and in point of fact the Thai gongs ARE tuned for a clear tonal signal whereas the German gongs are tuned for a reverberating feedback that has multiple tonal qualities we refer to a sound of 'crashing'.

On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. This is the Gospel which means the Good News. Turn to Christ and live. John 1:1,14 KJV In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The best gongs are still in Indonesia, because even though the theory states that gongs originated from China, they were in the form of bronze and not yet shaped like gongs today and the word gong comes from the Javanese Indonesian language and this form of gong was known to the world in the 70s, 80s, and 90s through Indonesia. While Indochina and East Asia are famous for their Buddhist bells in temples. The Indonesian government must claim that this form of gong is from Indonesia, don't let it be claimed by other countries.

Gongs are important to my culture in Borneo too. This is the first time I’ve seen a beautifully painted gong. The ones my family has is a set of different sizes and pitch and the look is just plain.
Neither sounded like what I was expecting, like the boiler plate sound effect noise. Of the two kinds, I liked the German one better. Sounds like an ocean monster or the end of the world lol.
The sound just sound right ! And base on refence - if you make music ... German ,if you use gong for Buddhist purpose .. of course it need that holy sound from Thailand , deep calm and Holy ...
@Unique Chris BS if the people were seeking a honest cut of those gongs being made their lives would change. They certainly are not seeing pay increases with the increase demand from customers. If a safer job that came by with better pay they would be sprinting to the door
Men hammering out metal for thousands of strikes a day without any hearing protection. Then picks it up and listens for the exact right tone when struck. Mind-blowing.
the sound of these gongs bring me back to my childhood man, when i would be at the temple with my parents during a ceremony i would always wanna hit it lol
I've seen people at Thai temples stroking/rubbing the gongs at the central boss and making them reverb without a beater, there seems to be a knack to it, I've never got it to work myself.

That’s basically our every thought when we see a RUclips video
Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell?
Acts 16:30-31 KJV
...what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
God Almighty, the Creator was manifest in the flesh. He came into the world to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save yours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for your redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.
This is the Gospel which means the Good News. Turn to Christ and live.
John 1:1,14 KJV
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
Isaiah 9:6 KJV
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
John 1:10 KJV
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
John 20:28-29 KJV
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

3:03 not going to lie but that bit took me to another dimension
Glad to see Thai people on youtube!
Very cool information! The lady painting was very cool!
In my country, gongs are all made of brass and they are not decorated. This is not only used for traditional ceremony but also is part in a local instrument orchestra
Kayaknya term gong sendiri berasal dari bahasa jawa mas. Onomatopi dari bunyi gong sendiri. Patut bangga.

@@motorola9956 iya gong itu dari bahasa jawa. ꦒꦺꦴꦁ dibilangnya gong. Gong berasal dari cina dan dibawa ke asia tenggara. Gong digunakan di jawa biasanya untuk gamelan. Yang dipakai di negara thai, vietnam, myanmar biasa dipakai untuk acara keagamaan biasanya buddha
@@kevinjati7953 termnya mas, the word was coined from Javanese.

Who else wants an expensive gong now even though you don’t need it

Did he just... insult me?
The best gongs are still in Indonesia, because even though the theory states that gongs originated from China, they were in the form of bronze and not yet shaped like gongs today and the word gong comes from the Javanese Indonesian language and this form of gong was known to the world in the 70s, 80s, and 90s through Indonesia. While Indochina and East Asia are famous for their Buddhist bells in temples. The Indonesian government must claim that this form of gong is from Indonesia, don't let it be claimed by other countries.
“Hand beating” did not know my dad was a gong maker
Lol get out of here 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
i got goosebumps when they listen to the tune and hammered on certain places to achieve the perfect tune... That is real talent there.. omg.. ❤❤🔥 and that's gonna take years of practice, learning and risking.. Hats off to them
Proud to be Thai 😊
I have heard of the Silk Road, but now the Gong Highway, learn something new everyday!
Tawag Ng Tanghalan brought me here.
I should be doing an essay, but here i am learning how to make a gong and determinate its value. Nice !!
The Paiste gong sounds like a cow bell when compare to the tuned smoothing sound of the Thai ones
Paiste has got to be my least favorite cymbal brand.
@@mild_meme the 2002 sound edge hats are amazing though
the woman is mind bendingly talented. bravisimo! i always find myself hoping these highly skilled artisans are being compensated for their worth. many thanks for upload.
4:35 Southeast Asian flags!!! WOW!
That first hit on the gong immediately made me feel better.
"Our elders hear the sound (of the gong) and put their hands together and make a wish."🥺
Really cool to feel the gong vibrations coming through my phone. It vibrates my hands.

Gongs are important to my culture in Borneo too. This is the first time I’ve seen a beautifully painted gong. The ones my family has is a set of different sizes and pitch and the look is just plain.
The German gong sounds horrible. Like when you drop a metal lid on the floor.
It doesn’t sound horrible, have you listened to any Symphonies?
Ahhh yes that gong sounds like a pabzer very nice
Sounds like a hurricane, what a amazing sound, I was not expecting that
Neither sounded like what I was expecting, like the boiler plate sound effect noise. Of the two kinds, I liked the German one better. Sounds like an ocean monster or the end of the world lol.
These two types of gong have totally different purpose, don't compare them.
Excellent video... esp since I'm a percussionist. BEAUTIFUL
I feel like gong in Thailand are true gongs than Paiste in germany

And why do you say that?
Not really, one is made by people for slave wages and the other is made by highly repeatable machines for less labor for a living wage for workers
The sound just sound right ! And base on refence - if you make music ... German ,if you use gong for Buddhist purpose .. of course it need that holy sound from Thailand , deep calm and Holy ...
@Unique Chris BS if the people were seeking a honest cut of those gongs being made their lives would change. They certainly are not seeing pay increases with the increase demand from customers. If a safer job that came by with better pay they would be sprinting to the door
This little youtube show is highly addictive for some reason.
So many gong shops I was hoping to see some shops with names like: "Gong With The Wind", "gong Girl, or "Gong in 60 Seconds"
Open a gong shop in Hong Kong and call it Hong Bong
Go home *Bob’s Burgers”* - you’re drunk!

YouYour voice is so calming you helped me with my anxiety
Men hammering out metal for thousands of strikes a day without any hearing protection. Then picks it up and listens for the exact right tone when struck. Mind-blowing.
Lol they listen with damaged ears

Wooooooooow so nice. I loved how the first one sounded 🥰 so deep and smooth
Quality and manual work always demand high prices. The demand and willingness to pay to create such an environment.

I've seen people at Thai temples stroking/rubbing the gongs at the central boss and making them reverb without a beater, there seems to be a knack to it, I've never got it to work myself.
