Thank you! I want #1 but just saw it's only available in the Netherlands and 2 month wait 😢

@@vpconcepts9838 yes, it sadly takes a bit depending on the maker. It’s worth it, however!

[@MissMog]

Hi this may seem like a silly question but the first two pans being in a custom scale , may I please ask the note line up for both? I am incredibly interested in both of these tunings , after seeing this video it is going to make it very hard to settle for anything less. The Godan are absolutely beautiful and offer such a wonderful all round sound .

[@ReWildYourSoul]

@@MissMog not silly at all! The Godan is : C# center. F# G# A C# E flat F G# C# Hope that helps! Ricky

You’re clearly skilled and know ur product, but it would have been more helpful for me if you had played the same song across each drums. Thanks anyways, great video!!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Hey! They are all different scales, so that would not work 😉 as they are different notes and different keys, they would not sound the same, even with the same pattern, it was more a video about the ways of identifying characteristic of quality instruments. 🙏 Thanks for watching!

[@oneconsc3333]

Undoubtedly that’s not how it works as a creative being. Each instrument, no matter how similar they are, just like a guitar there are many many different models... it’s the instrument that tells you what will be played by the energy you receive as soon as you place it next to your body. Besides, would have been boring to hear the same song for almost the entire length of the video. Great hat by the way brother 🙏🏼💜🇨🇦

[@aloyer2391]

Aloha ReWildYourSoul, thank you for so many helpful videos & informative content. I’m an old beach drummer, djembes & djun djuns. During Covid I practiced isolationism, and stopped playing at our Maui beach drum circles for over a year. During that time, I purchased four Rav Vast, direct. 1st a D-Major, 2nd a G-Pygmy, 3rd an E-Low Pygmy, and 4th a B Kurd. Thought I was done, but Rav just had a big 7th BD sale, & I ordered my 1st handpan a D Hijaz. I watched your D Hijaz videos, which I appreciate. I love the ease of the Vasts, the sturdy nature, and the vibrational sounds. I’m a little worried the handpan will be much more difficult to play, but believe it holds different sounds, & will allow more off note sounds than the heavier Vasts. I picked the D Hijaz for the huge 30% sale price, but also thought it would fit with my Vast collection. My Question is for you & your style, if you only had a single pan, what handpan would fit your needs or style??? Mahalo…..

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Hey there! That is a good question. I think if I only had one handpan scale, I would choose either Kurd or F Low pygmy, as these provide much variety and chordal potential. For most players, writing songs is not the goal, so more limited scales are not an issue. That said, they all have their time and place! Great questions! :)

[@aloyer2391]

[@norochmusic]

thanks for sharing your thoughts, I bought mine about a year ago, i got advice from a couple of people and although I am happy with mine, I do feel looking back I rushed a little, I was just so keen to be finally able to afford one, I struggled to get in touch with makers that I love the sound or look of their pans, I am hoping to save up and travel to a maker in the uk soon, I want a travel size handpan next, as my novapan is rather large when i don't use my snare stand! love your videos.

Fantastic breakdown! Appreciate this. I currenty own a D Kurd tonguepan (YW Pulsar) and love it. Eventually would like a handpan as well, when the time is right. Strongly considering a F (low) Pygmy or something similar.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

F Pygmy is an amazing scale! I am sure you would love how different it feels from the d Kurd! 🎶🙏

[@SulisHana]

what manufactures would you recommend for the blooming but still having a clear note with long sustain.. i do prefer the nitrided sound but am not a heavy handed player..

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Hey! Blooms are common on stainless, but not quite as audible on most nitrided. There are quite a few stainless instrument that lack the brightness of the handpan, but maintain that bloom. I have a few D Kurds currently for sale, but they are stainless. Aura, Isthmus are two of the makers in the US still using nitriding, but most makers hav me converted to stainless!

[@justanothernoobe]

beautiful to listen to and love your mad-as skills :) But a wee tip for when doing a comparison - ALWAYS compare apples with apples - i.e. play the same tune on each different hand pan so that we can hear how the same tune sounds different.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Agreed! It just doesn’t quite work like that on these, as they are all different scales/ notes !😉 It would be like changing the tuning of a guitar and trying to use the same chord positions. Thanks so much for you kind words as well!🙏🌞🎶

There are a few makers, Aura Handpans and Iskra Handpans, that are making instruments under 1k right now. BOth high quality.

Hey there! SonidoDeMano is a great stainless plan, also Handromeda Handpan as well. So many options now! All the babes of the makers SMS scales are on my pinned comment at the top. Glad it helped!

[@ChiefPoints]

Thanks Ricky! I've read that handpans require quite a bit more care in handling than, let's say, a RAV Vast, and it's possible for the instrument to go out of tune if played too hard or handled improperly. While we know that the different materials affect the timbre of the sound, how do the different materials affect the overall tuning stability of the instrument? Is one more likely to remain in tune over another given the same care and playing style? A handpan is likely my next hand percussion instrument, and I want to make sure I get it right the first time. It takes too long to save for something like this to screw it up ;) Thanks for the post, take care my friend! Stay safe, healthy and happy!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Handpans definitely require a different care ritual than a Rav or other Tongue drums! For me, I have really never had issues with tuning. For example, RavPan from 2018 is still perfectly in tune. It all really depends on how you strike and treat the instrument. I am going to be starting a podcast soon and interviewing some makers, so that may be useful in hearing more about he process directly from them! For me, stainless is one of my favorite materials, but I am a sucker for sustain, 🤷‍♂️. I also love the sound of raw steel as we’ll so it’s a hard choice! If you find one you like and want a second opinion, be in touch 🙏

[@ChiefPoints]

@@ReWildYourSoul Thanks Ricky, great info, I love sustain as well. Given this will be my first handpan, I think I may look for something more in the middle of the road, something that will lend itself to both slow and faster pieces. That new podcast sounds like it will be great, can't wait. I'll definitely be in touch prior to making my final decision. Thanks!

[@ReWildYourSoul]

It’s funny, even handpan don’t follow their own rules sometimes haha. The handromeda Pan, which is raw steel, is super stable. Some of it is just how skilled or in what way a tuner approaches making the instrument! As long as they are focused on stability, the material only really matter for care and tonal reasons. 😉 I am sure you will love whatever you get!

@@ReWildYourSoul Each instrument has unique stories to tell that just come out if you allow them to speak. They all have their individuality and simply encourage you to play differently.

The low end of the market seems to have come down to the USD $450 range. I’m expecting an Amazon delivery this afternoon. I expect it to be good enough to learn on and to satisfy my instrument collecting urge. Since I am not a performer, I don’t expect to need a high end instrument, Although I am already slightly envious of the greater range I’m seeing in some KZbin videos. The one I picked is 9 notes in a D minor Kurd tuning, not that I have any clue about the difference in Kurd vs Celtic vs whatever else is available tuning.

Hey brother! Yes the ones on amazon are sometimes tuned, but it’s really a longevity thing. Makers who are familiar with the building process can assure they stay in tune and hold their sharp well. Some of that market is ok, some meh. That said, I have tried instruments from many makers and even the “low end” ones can be nice! Regardless, you will love it! If you are in the market for lessons when it arrives, be in touch! 🙏

Hi Ricky, excellent video! Can you please tell me what is the allowable error in setting the note? I bought myself a RavPan D Celtic, and on the tuner I found that two notes go to + 12/15 cents (while the sound is clear, even), the rest are in order + 2/3. They have a 30 day return policy, should I return it and exchange it for another one? Thanks in advance for your reply!

Hey there! Feel free to send me a video and I can take a listen :)

My pleasure!

As someone who is looking and saving up for one. I Personally settled with stainless steel at 7:20 . I love the clear rich tone it gives and its a very warm feeling. As far a what scale to buy, i have a RAV Vast Steel drum in D Celtic minor. So if i did get a hand pan, it would be nice to switch it up. Do you have any recommendations for other scales for beginners ? 🙂

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Yes! Stainless is a great choice. Kurd, and Pygmy scales are great. If you are in the market do a stainless pan, I have a few available!

​@@ReWildYourSoulHi bro Am looking to buy a handpan. Please guide me brand name.

Hi 👋, you're truly talented, blessed. It was great listening to you. The peace that a handpan brings is also in your personality and voice. Thank you for putting this video together. I was hoping to hear from you about a few brands that a beginner can look into. Like you said, each one's preference is different but for a starter, how do we go about exploring the handpans. Do you have a video or know someone who has that you can point me to. I would love to learn about makers and hear the instruments so I can pick one. Thank you again for such great advice and for taking the time to read my comment.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

[@ReWildYourSoul]

Thanks man! It’s an amazing world Of instruments out there! Welcome! 🎶🙏🔥🌿👁

[@christophermoon3717]

@@ReWildYourSoul , I'm entering that world on Sunday when Amazon ships me some sleel tounge drum to start. I would really like to get a hand pand or obe of your RAVs but they are pricey and Idk enough about it all to drop more then a hundred into it. Are the price ranges for both usually between 600 to 2000 bucks? I need a panhand on a pan handlers budget, lol!

[@michaelharshberger223]

Please write out the maker of the instrument you demonstrated shoulder tone harmonics on - something Dimano, perhaps (8:00 minutes). It would be great to know all the makers. Thank you for sharing your genius in the brilliant performance demonstrations.

[@ReWildYourSoul]

All the makers are in the topped pin comment already ! That one was a SonidoDeMano
