Description
A Integral RAV Vast 432Hz is a younger brother of our A Integral scale. It sounds even more bewildering yet soft and soothing. It resembles a tranquil melody of a music box from childhood that we opened whenever we needed to abstract away from reality.
A Integral 432Hz is for musicians who have an advanced level of playing skills. While the Ding is tuned in A2, the rest notes are in the 3rd and 4th octaves. The scale allows choosing between major and minor keys. How? By simply changing the root note of your melody.
The experienced drummers and handpan players will love this scale for its relaxing sound. In addition, it's a godsend for those who are looking for an accompaniment for meditation sessions. Being a 432 Hz instrument called "The Earth's heartbeat", this drum is perfect for sound-healing, music therapy and yoga. It creates that intimate connection with the players and vibrates in harmony with their souls.
The A Integral RAV Vast in 432 Hz is an enigmatic scale with an exceptional energetic vibration. Its dark, melodic, even esoteric vibe helps to look into the depths of your soul. This scale has a meditative and watery kind of sound. The A Integral tuning refers to Native American culture and reminds of a lonely horseman crossing a deserted prairie.
The scale is unique from a technical point of view. You can easily change between the minor and major keys depending on which note you use as a root one. If you involve the Ding in playing, you get more meditative melodies. If you choose the bottom C3 note, you can get a C Major sound.
What is so special about 432 Hz? First of all, it is known that Stradivarius violins or instruments of ancient Egypt and Tibetan monks were tuned to this very pitch. Even the ancient God Orpheus is believed to have his violin tuned to this frequency. Secondly, 432Hz is called the planet's breath. There is even scientific proof connected with electromagnetic frequencies. We explain it (and the difference between 440 and 432 Hz) more thoroughly in our article here. Thus, a 432Hz tongue drum is especially powerful and spiritual.
The RAV Vast A Integral is made out of steel of 1.5 mm compared to the usual 2 mm thickness of the other RAV Vasts. The thinner shell provides incredible sound depth and longevity. It is also one of the lightest drums among the whole RAV Vast collection (the weight of the A Integral is 4.9 kg only, while the average RAV Vast weight is 5.9 kg).
For whom this scale will work
A Integral 432 Hz scale will instantly become one of the favourites in the collection of an advanced musician. If you are already familiar with playing the tongue drum or any other hand drum, you'll love the A Integral for the challenge it will be for you and the opportunities it will provide. This scale may be a little bit tricky to deal with due to the semitones. It's not the most manageable scale among other RAV Vasts. However, with just a little practice, you will be able to come up with songs on it.
This scale will work perfectly for the slow, meditative type of playing. Both A integral 440 and 432 Hz should be on your list to choose for meditation, relaxation, and other therapeutic experiences. If you have already practised meditation with a RAV, A Integral will be a great support.
By lowering the pitch by just 8 Hz, we created an instrument with such a familiar scale but with more significant power and influence. This RAV Vast helps calm the body down, release the negative energy and put you into a natural, peaceful and pure state of mind. It takes away the weight from your soul and clarifies thoughts. It unites the body and the consciousness. Besides, it realigns you with the Earth.
You can play a perfect solo using the A Integral 432. However, due to the unique pitch of the drum, we do not recommend pairing it with other instruments. Even if you find an instrument with the same tuning, for example, a 432 Hz handpan,it will be challenging. So for a better sound and effect, stick to the drum. You will be fortunate if you happen to play with another A Integral 432Hz – a compelling duet.
