In addition, in the Balinese gamelan tuning system there is the term ngumbang-ngisep. Ngumbang-ngisep are two equal tones, intentionally made into a slight different frequency. If these two tones pangumbang and pangisep played together at the same time, they will produce sound wave which is asthetically one of the form of beauty in karawitan Bali. In Gong Kebyar, there is also a concept of balance which is oriented towards "dualism" of good and bad or which includes similarities and differences. This concept can be seen in the themes of Balinese art, which mostly depart from this dualism, so that strong norms and ethics emerge and become part of art performances. The concept of a two-dimensional balance can produce symmetrical shapes that are at the same time asymmetrical or a harmonious and disharmonic braid which is commonly known as Rwa Bhineda. In the concept of rwa bhineda, there is also a spirit of togetherness, the existence of interrelation and competition to create interaction and competition. Balance in the second dimension is one of the basic concepts in Balinese music, including the gamelan Gong Kebyar.This is reflected in the traditional Gong Kebyar instruments made in pairs; lanang - wadon or male female, this term is used in the naming of the drums and gongs.The tuning system ngumbang – ngisep ; the same tones with different frequency, the lower tone is called ngumbang and a slight higher tone is called ngisep. The elements of tones or sounds combination have been identical in Balinese traditional music, almost all types of Balinese gamelan have playing basics varied terms, such as : kotekan, cecandetan, tetorekan and ubit-ubitan. The playing technique kotekan ; uses sangsih (off-beat), polos (on-beat). These are the symbol of balance elements which are not always parallel, but in a competitive interaction. In general, it can be observed that the structure the Gong Kebyar repertoire consists of three main parts , namely: kawitan, pangawak and pangecet. Kawitan is supposed to be the head, pangawak is body, and pangecet is the legs. These parts are portioned out equally, in which the rwa bhineda system is always in it in order to produce harmony in each part or harmony among parts. Conceptually, these two elements become dualism that is always reflected in artistic activities in Bali. reflected in artistic activities in Bali.)
