Put one of these Octavator caps on the end of a Boomwhacker tuned plastic percussion tube, and you've lowered the tone by an octave (8 notes lower in sound)! Play the tubes as usual or hold them vertically and tap the capped end on the floor. An economical way to extend your range of notes, as well as an easy way to make lower notes more accessible. For example, a capped tube from the short diatonic set (item 200346, available separately) can be much easier to handle than a longer bass tube. Package of 8 is enough to cover any one set of Boomwhackers (each set of Boomwhackers is available separately).

Add chromatic pitches to your existing diatonic Boomwhackers® set for a full chromatic octave, or play a unique pentatonic scale with only these five tubes!

This 5-Note Chromatics Set includes C#, D#, F#, G#, and A# within the standard octave of Boomwhackers®. Tubes range in length from 13" to 23". Combine this set with the 8-Note C Major Diatonic Set (Item #BWDG, sold separately) to form fully-chromatic octave of 13 notes. The 5-Note Chromatics Set also creates its own unique pentatonic scale that sounds pleasant by itself.
