Description
The HP8DM 8 Note handpan allows you to create calming vibrations and musical melodies. Handpans are percussion instruments tuned to specific scales that produce a blend of resonant tones. This model is tuned to the evocative D Kurd scale and handcrafted from durable vibra-steel alloy, resistant to rust and environmental damage, into a single shell. Its innovative design and protective coating provide optimal thickness for clear, sustained notes and overtones while maintaining tuning stability.
Innovative 8-Note Tuning in the Hypnotic D Kurd Scale
The HP8DM's 8 notes are tuned to the D Kurd scale, producing a hypnotic range of tones from A to A. Whether you're a novice exploring handpan sounds for the first time or an experienced player, the D Kurd scale offers a calming yet complex array of notes to compose melodic rhythms and trance-inducing grooves.
Handcrafted Vibra-Steel Alloy for Resonance and Durability
This handpan is constructed from a single shell of vibra-steel alloy, a durable metal resistant to rust, dents and environmental damage. The alloy is handcrafted and heat-treated to achieve the optimal thickness for rich, resonant tones with long sustain and complex overtones that ring clearly even in outdoor settings.
Innovative Design and Protective Coating
The HP8DM's innovative design includes a special protective coating to shield against corrosion while maintaining precise tuning. Its rounded dome and flared skirt allow notes to resonate fully, while the coating helps sustain tuning stability so you can rely on the handpan's soothing tones for years to come.
Padded Gig Bag and Cover Included
A padded gig bag and protective cover are included for safe transport and storage. The thick padding shields your handpan from bumps and scrapes when on the go, while the water-resistant cover provides an extra layer of protection for outdoor use or long-term storage.
