8 Handpan instruments We assembled a collection with the shining stars of the hand pan scene including instruments from the most acknowledged and high-end manufacturers on the market. NEW: Aya and Yishama. 3 Tongue Drums The second flavor of the pandrum world are three tongue drums with their modern yet so close to nature timbre. Next to the kinda traditional shaped Aqua Drum we added a long sustaining RAV Vast and a tiny 7’’ mini tongue drum.

What is a Handpan / Pandrum
A Hand Pan consists of two metal half-shells glued together with an opening whole in the bottom side. On top is a central tone field with
the deepest note surrounded by a circle of at least seven tone fields with higher scale notes. The creation and tuning of the tone fields
is extremely complex. In the process of tuning, the tuner hammers several overtones into every tone field. This takes a very long time.
Finally the handpan is available in a large amount of scales from all over the world. In addition to the classic handpan instruments with
battered in tone fields, there is also the department of the Tongue Drums, which work with metallic reeds.
In order to give Pandrum the widest possible range of instruments and their variety, we have put together a very
sophisticated selection of handpans and tongue drums from simple to top notch. They were all recorded in several dynamic layers and 8 round robin variations.

We recommend:
If you like to play the Pandrum Instrument via Controller we truly recommend the Wavepan Controller.
|
And furtherly for all users of this Wavepan controller we recommend the HALion version of the Pandrum at this time, as it is better tailored to the needs of Wavepan players and has some extra features that are currently not realized in the Kontakt version. |
