While the ARRAY 1D is optimized to play in D minor, all its individual notes are completely interchangeable. For example, if you want to vary the order of your notes (for right or left handed play) OR if you want to add additional notes, you can, enabling you to play in different keys and scales.
Yes this means you CAN play a Euphonic CHROMATICALLY – with the Euphonic CHROMA 1, a fully chromatic instrument with more notes and a higher price point. BUT don’t forget, since all notes will be interchangeable among all models, if you purchase the 1D now, you could later purchase an additional stand, plus the notes you are missing, in order to build your OWN chromatic array!
For everyone in the soundhealing arena – YES we can also tune your instruments to 432hz (for an additional fee and wait time), otherwise our Euphonics are tuned to standard 440hz. Just give us a call for this option.
Individual euphones (notes) as well as expansion stands are also available.
