RING CUSHIONS

Placing a soft cushion under your singing bowl while playing is quite beneficial.  A cushion underneath the singing bowl will help it stay put when struck with a mallet. Playing your singing bowl with a cushion also produces a better quality of sound. All bowls produce unique sounds but the surface on which the singing bowl gets placed can affect its sound too. A hard surface will create a dull tone by dampening the sound. Hence, a softer surface like a cushion is ideal for singing bowls. Moreover, larger singing bowls require cushions as they are harder to handle and play. Using a cushion makes the singing bowl more accessible and helps it produce even tones.
