Details
The Dominus Advanced Magnet Pack lets you tune the 14-inch, 10-note Dominus down to hundreds of additional scales. The lowest pitches you can reach are B2, Eb3, F3, G3, A3, C4, C#4, F4, G4 and A4. The Owner's Guide (PDF) shows the magnet setup for each tongue.
The pack includes 14 magnets: 1 standard (yellow), 5 large (blue) and 8 extra-large (black). The Dominus comes with 5 medium (green) and 5 large (blue) magnets.
How to tune
- Push or pull a magnet along the tongue to raise or lower the pitch. Keep it on the center line of the tongue.
- Add, remove or change magnet sizes on a tongue to adjust the pitch further.
- When a tuning needs two or more extra-large (black) magnets on one tongue, place them side by side. Do not stack them.
- When a tuning needs two magnets on one tongue, put the larger magnet against the tongue and stack the smaller one on top.
- A clip-on chromatic tuner makes it quick and accurate.

Warning: magnet and choking hazard. Contains small, powerful neodymium magnets. Not a toy. Keep away from children. Read before you buy and use.
Swallowing hazard. This product contains small magnets. Swallowed magnets can stick together across the intestines and cause serious injury or death. Get medical help immediately if a magnet is swallowed or inhaled. Keep magnets away from children and never put them in the mouth, nose or ears.
- Handle with care. Neodymium magnets are very strong and brittle. They can snap together with force, pinch skin, and chip or shatter on impact. Do not let magnets slam into each other or into the drum. Wear gloves and eye protection when handling loose magnets.
- Medical devices. Strong magnetic fields can affect pacemakers and other implanted medical devices. Keep magnets at least 3 feet (1 m) away from them.
- Electronics and cards. Magnets can damage phones, computers, screens, hearing aids, mechanical watches, credit and bank cards, and other magnetic storage. Keep them apart.
- Heat. Neodymium magnets lose strength above 175°F (80°C).
- Never cut, drill, grind or burn magnets. They will break, the dust is flammable, and burning releases toxic fumes.
