There are two "jegogan" (shortened to "jegog" in everyday speech) in kebyar, one male and one female. These instruments have a range of one octave, and are one octave below jublag. The keys are considerably larger than those of other "gangsa", and are played with a large, cloth-coated, rubber-padded spherical mallet. The jegogan plays the deepest tuned notes in the ensemble, typically playing key notes in the underlying melody of a piece of music instead of every note of that melody.
