Strings and Tuning: the first part of the video monochord tuning @ 3:04 Tanpura tuning
Strum on the strings close to the bridge of the monochord to create sounds rich in over-tones. Strum in the middle and the sound is evener. At first, it seems like you hear only one tone, but as your mind relaxes, you can notice a full variety of tones and overtones that weave a wistful and subtle melody. It creates a sound experience, much like that of a gong.

It is the perfect fit for a variety of locations, such as: modern offices, clinics, therapeutic facilities, private practices, wellness centers, and in your very own home.

Compare the different tunings: Monochord , Tambura or OM
Tambura Tuning:
If you string the strings evenly with your fingers, you will create overtones that have rich harmonics. The tunes D d d A repeat 10 times in the 40 strings creating a rich sound environment. It embraces and holds you in a relaxing environment without any prior training. monchair with tambura tunings is great for places where the chair is exposed to new people all the time, who want to play and enjoy the Singing Chair with each other. Great to use in settings like offices, hotels, wellness, and care facilities.
Monochord tuning:
allows you to create a more nuanced play. The strings are tuned to D and the higher octave d. This allows the player more creative possibilities to excite the many finer and subtle overtones. You can vary the pitches and focus on the deeper tones in D, which have more vibration or string d to create more overtones.
Omchair tunings: The new singing chair Omchair has the order of strings similar to the Monolina. The overtone, bass and a fifth in the high and the low Gis. The created sound will work simultaneously, grounding and opening.
Monchair invites you to enjoy and relax with its sound. A pleasantly vibrating sound carpet entices you to stop time and "listen up". Only 5 minutes are enough for calmness to return, thoughts to run out, breathing and heart rate to regulate. Relaxation happens on all levels in a light, almost playful way. Sounds gently touch and vibrations massage, vitalize and promote a presence that we so often long for.
If monchair is played for a longer time, the sound easily leads to meditative states for both player and played. The body becomes a resonance chamber and is perceived more consciously.
Monchair becomes interesting in therapeutic and pedagogical use. The advantages of the monochrome sounds with their opening, consciousness-raising and integrating principle not only support their work, but also stimulate the self-healing powers.
Finest feeltone craftsmanship made of high quality materials, lovingly manufactured from the plank to the stringing in the northeast of Germany by the beautiful Baltic Sea and shipped all over the world.
Clinical reviews:
"The feeltone Monchord Singing Chair has served as an important instrument to the patients we serve at The Louis Armstrong Center for Music and Medicine at Beth Israel Medical Center.
There are numerous patients who have benefited from the breath glissando release sounds I use accompanied by the string glissando-from low to high and then absorption…where the strings resonate and saturate through the warm wood into the body. In a general way, this warm up takes only about five minutes and creates “flow” and a sense of “homeostasis” or “self integration” or “synchrony between the body-mind-spirit” as one of my pianist musician players often says.
There are two patients who have particularly benefited from the vibration...please go to our blog to read more about the study."
Claudia Dall, a speech therapist, tested our monchair for a year in her private practice on the island of Usedom. Here's what she had to say:
" I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Ingo, Martina and the team from feeltone that helped me realize my dream of finding an elegant, comfortable office chair and a versatile therapeutic sound instrument, all in one. Over the years, I have incorporated sound in my practice for tonal regulation, body awareness, and sensory perception. monchair both doubles as an office space saver and a therapeutic vibrational treatment chair for my patients. Because of its space-saving feature, I can also use the overtone rich Monochord instruments while the client is in a seated position. Playing them monchair allows me to quickly get my clients into a relaxed state without the need to change position. The harmonious sounds support my work with more ease and bring joy to myself and my clients. They confirm this experience with their feedback and their radiant and beaming faces after each session. "
