Description

World’s first tunable iOS implementation of Balinese Gender Wayang!

This is the free version of Gender for iOS. It's limitation is: can't save changes, fewer included songs, no support for Inter-App Audio/Audiobus.

Gender Wayang is a 10-key metallophone, coming in pairs, most be doubled from an other pair one octave higher, tuned in Slendro scale. As Gender Wayang is played with two panggul (mallets) - other than the Gangsa in Gong Kebyar - two player together play the melody (left hand) and the interlocking parts kotekan (right hand) as a complete „mini“ Gamelan.
