13 Handpan Comparison- What is Your Favorite?

[@maxandchloemeditation]

It’s so good. Now, I am so confused! Because I can’t have it all……And I blame you, Ricky! You can make a tin can sound good! Great job my friend. And thank you!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Thanks Brother! Was fun to do this one. Back in the day, I would have never dreamed of the availability of these instruments! Glad you liked it haha

[@choschiba-music]

In your hands all the handpans sound like gold. Hard to decide which one I like the best

[@ReWildYourSoul]

That is so kind 🙏🎶

[@mistirion4929]

6:37 C Curd minor That is my absolute favourite. Out of all, to me, this is the most mystic sounding. It spreads a very unique feeling

[@ReWildYourSoul]

@@mistirion4929 agreed. Absolutely a magical instrument by @sonidodemano

[@mistirion4929]

Yo brother I've tried looking for this pan but I couldn't find neither the pan nor the creator. Where exactly did you buy it? Especially "C Kurd minor" confuses my browser as it always thinks I'm looking for D Kurd minor

[@julialemieux535]

I’m in love with the C Kurd, but seem to have a hard time getting in touch with sonidodemano. His is unmatched! I would love to own one if his creations one day🤍

[@lancekotter927]

Hands down the TiRak at 11:14, the harmonics are pretty unbelievable

[@ReWildYourSoul]

agreed! 🔥🙏

[@donnahudson2744]

Shopping for a drum, my first one. I love your videos and am hoping this one will help me decide which drum to begin with. Unfortunately, the beautiful melodies you produce on each drum makes me want them all. I think I'm hooked! Thanks for the soulful music.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

My Pleasure Donna! Honestly, between all of these, its just a matter of taste :) If you get one and are looking for lessons to get started, be in touch via my website in the description!

[@SoulSoundEnergy]

Thanks for your time to share this. I 'm feeling the nova gen 7, smooth, clean, balanced and harmonious. The echo was also similar and interesting with the dimple design and harmonics. Rav has a unique crisp sound and seems solid and stable. I thought the travel pan was pleasant and joyful. 🙏✌️

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Hey there! I completely agree with your assessment. I ended up working m with the maker of the Gen 7 nova to provide to new students, as I think they are insanely high quality for the price. Ravs are great as well, given all you have mentioned as well

[@junipersages]

Very nice! Really enjoyed the RAV pans and the Novapan....that sustain! C# Rewildyour soul had a sweetly nostalgic feel. Enjoyed this, thank you :)

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Thanks so much! It was quite fun to create!

[@samonsounds]

Oh my goodness the f firefly melody you played touched my heart I can't stop listening 🥰

[@cpm9747]

The deep rich tones in that Lunaria. Gah, I'm in love. And the underside notes on that E la Sirena... O.O D Celtic is still one of my favorite scales.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

It is a tough choice! For me it all depends on where I am playing or what I am doing with it!

[@Celestiasanctuary]

Lunaria for sure. What notes does it incorporate?

[@elliee8683]

Well you make them all sound good, I can't pick.😄

[@ReWildYourSoul]

@@elliee8683 haha thanks! My fave: Pygmy or Kurd

This is such a fun one! Also probably good to inspire envy 😂 Like the unique timbre and shoulder on the Cm sonido!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Haha, envy was not the goal, just help! The Sonido is magic!

[@charlarge3555]

Love the F Low Pygmy…and of course the pans made by Jon of Aura Handpan…I am blessed to own one of his creations!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Love Auras! They have such a clean sound. Agreed completely! Thought this would be a fun idea to share the ones I had access too!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

@ hello! I do! Tell him Rewildyoursoul sent you! I have an F Firefly (golden Arcadian) scales Azure Series. Great instrument and price!

[@hangwithjay]

The C# Rewild is by far my favourite and I'm not just saying that because it's your own customized scale. The chords are so good.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Thanks man! I love that one as well !

[@stephanieanderson7208]

Your hands are pure magic. You play line an angel. This video was helpful. I've been playing on my Kosmosky tongue drum and would love to explore the handpan next. I live in Sonoma County and was happy to see a Xenith up there. His website says not taking orders. Boo hoo

[@normalmonstercosplays378]

My favorites are the F# Averbury Chill Radar Handpan and the Godan Handpan Rewildyoursoul Scale. I want to get a handpan(as my first one) and I was looking around and found this video. You are really good at playing these!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Good choice!

[@Gardentrellis]

Duuuude you have the best Handpan Melodie’s!!!!!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

:)

[@donnahudson2744]

Ok, definitely the C# Rewildyoursoul Ravpan, and the APenta SonidoDEMano!

[@rasfies]

Xenith is my favorite so far. Sounds amazing!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

It's so good!

[@ashsanchez5759]

What is the song

[@thedailyremedy968]

Thanks really helpful and enjoyable hearing you play. I listened through 3 times. Novapan D Celtic clearly stands out for me because of the overall harmonic tones working together as one: just magic the vibration it creates in my body. Plus I love the scale. The Echco Sound Sculture is something special with that high harmonic-insane!-it’s a very healing frequency. If I had plenty of money I’d buy this alone just for that! Is it capable of that because it is made partly of chrome? Lastly the travel pan 7 note stood out for some of those extra harmonics.

[@MollyJLPT]

Rad thank you. Even just for a listen this is awesome.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Thanks for listening!

[@scottmusson]

Very cool comparison, would have loved this when looking for my first handpan. Firefly, Sonido C Kurd and Rewild scales are my favorites.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Agreed! I love those as well Scott!

[@mabblers]

the 2nd, and 10th ones were great.

[@brubrant]

Echosoundsculpture seems very neat! I would definitely chose it. ❤

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Agreed!

[@AppliedMusic]

The C kurd Sonido De Mano literally sounds nuts; the compositions for the D Integral Hang and E la Sirena were my favorites though.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Agreed! C low Sonido is a beast. It’s a tough call! Thanks for listening!

[@The_Brew_Dog]

My wife bought me a “cheaper” Handpan I think it’s a vevor or something…I still think she paid a few hundred or more on it. Bless her for trying but I have a hard time getting a quality sound from it without playing with sticks. I’ve never played a quality instrument but I’m assuming it’s not even in the same category. Just hard to justify spending so quadruple the price without putting my hands on one first.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

It's all in the flick of the finger. mallet cause handpans to come out of tune, so I am never sure why the Chinese sellers send them! Feel free to be in touch for lessons and I have tons of free tutorials here as well for strikes etc.

[@thathandpanlady4510]

Dang dude! Nice finger work!! 👍🏼 You make them all sound good!! 🛸🎶….🤗🦋

[@cristiandavila7310]

[@nayaleezy]

0:55 what's with the zombie background sounds?

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Likely the free roamers, or my chickens 🐓 😉

[@merlinchristoph5665]

Thanks for showing that much different scales, finally a good impression i got that differs from all the other players i heard. I also liked the C# scaling most 😊 But what I'm most happy about is to hear a player who properly uses the pan as what it is, a percussion / rythmic instrument. Good technique and good understa ding of the pan as an rythmic instrument. Thanks for showing me that there are musicians out there who use this amazing instrument not as only a meditation, pseudo spiritual expression / everybody can play it thing. That might sound quite offensive , but im fed up with hearing the same patterns and techniques over and over again just with a different scaling. 😅

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Totally on the same page as you brother! Glad to help!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

and I really appreciate you noticing that!

[@merlinchristoph5665]

Youre welcome Brother :) after almost 30 years doing Percussion and teaching students I would say that I'm able to tell the difference :-)

[@EddieInzauto]

I’d love to try them myself! You’ve turned me on to Novapan and Echo Sound Sculptures now.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

You should! Both are amazing!

[@armindalaei9909]

Hi, -Do you own a Novapan handpans?? -Which model and material do you have? -Is it still in tune??

[@andy.dogmaeye]

Hey man im getting into handpans and your videos helped me a ton. What do you use to record your music? as in mics

[@CorepexTechnologies]

My son is gifted with his hands. He has no formal training but can pick up the beats to any song. I bought him a simple Percussion Jam Cajon Box Drum and he plays it everyday and beautifully. I thought that this might be a better instrument and more versatile. I am leaning towards getting him a nitride pan but I don’t know anything about how many notes or Celtic , D vs C … Can you help?

[@MrSidReal]

wow love it is there somewhere I can learn, do you ship to UK, and does this have levers to change half steps/scales etc?

[@ReWildYourSoul]

No! But I love that idea! There are some people that have messed around with magnets, to do just that. In general though, nope. As for shipping, I do! I also know quite a few makers in the UK as well, so happy to lead you in the direction of the right instrument. For learning, I offer 1:1 song based lessons via zoom to about 25 weekly students.

Hi, thanks for your advises... What about the difference between 432 and 440 frequency? 🤔

I’m personally don’t like 432, unless it is is in “just intonation” otherwise, it is just out of tune! 😉 will do a video sometime

Hard part is figuring a good price point to start at as a beginner.

I think in the 6-990 dollar range, a Rav vast Is the best option! I also have a few for sale in the 1-1200 range, but yes they are pricey being handmade, agreed!

[@h20doctor]

Which pan is the best one for harmonics ?

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Good question. I would say that the SonidoDeMano, ESS, and Novapan have the loudest harmonics, mosty because of their stainless construction!

[@madhujith]

Might be just me, but honestly after listening to all the other handpans, The Hang feels like a big big let down to me. Yes, they invented the instrument, but, all the other handpans have such beautiful timbre and unfortunately can't relate myself to the PanArt despite their nostalgia 🙏

[@ReWildYourSoul]

I hear you! A piece of history for sure, but I think the public taste in timbre has changed allot since the early 2000’s thanks fro taking a listen my friend! Was fun to make!

[@thathandpanlady4510]

Nostalgia is really the key these days with the Hang … but even that is dwindling with all the legal ruckus created by PanArt. And as far as their sound? I totally agree with you… I finally got the opportunity to tap on two of them at Handpan gatherings and I was incredibly disappointed. There were so many pans inside the main room that sounded soooooo much better!! Nope … no interest in a Hang at all.
