Pan Drums, or 'hand pans' are a very recent musical invention.
Developed in the year 2000 by Swiss company PANart (the Hang or Hang Drum), their melancholic sound bewitches everyone that hears it.
But because a pan drum must be hand built by skilled artisans if it is to sound good, supply is short and they have remained relatively rare and extremely sought after by musicians; "Where can i buy a Hang drum?" is a common lament on internet forums.
Soniccouture's Pan Drums brings the full range of hand pan sounds to your DAW with a wealth of creative tools to help you explore the sound of these enigmatic instruments.
Pan Drums does not load directly into the HPD20. Computer + MIDI interface required.
