Island is known as term “saluang”, while in Tegal City is called as “ilo-ilo”. On the other hand, Yudibrata defined Suling is a
horizontal wind instrument, made of small and tiny bamboo, that called tamiang, it has six holes for accompany sundanese
song or kecapi suling, and it has four holes for salendro and degung tunings.

Sundanese bamboo flute is one of wind instrument, behave as open cylindrical pipe. When the air is blown to upper edge of flute (Elak-elakan), the air in column
vibrates and in the end of Suling, it forms of antinode and the resonance is occurs. In open pipe, it has an antinode (and
pressure node) in the end of pipe. The frequency of resonance for pipe which both of ends is open, is equal to
frequency for closed end pipe. But, it has an end correction in both ends. The wavelength of fundamental note is twice of
pipe’s effective length. Flute and recorder behave as open pipe with all the harmonic arise. It’s like vibrate strings, the general
motion of air molecules in open pipe is mixed of harmonics.
