Zenko 9 notes - CELTIC MINOR
Zenko is a tongue drum (also called tank drum or hank drum) designed and created by Metal Sounds. This metal-made melodic percussion is the result of a long research & development program leaded by the Metal Sounds' team, in collaboration with scientists and experts of the metal industry. All has been studied: the raw-material (stainless steel), the blades cutting, the assembling, the finish... And the result is up to it! The Zenko spreads its sounds like smooth and soft waves. Its high harmonics content comes from a perfect tuning that is also reliable along the years. It will produce some differents sounds depending on the kind of play: by hands or with the sticks (included). The Celtic minor scale is a A minor original scale. A A3 in the center will give a deep bass that will be used as a pivot. This scale is close to the well known C major diatonic scale but with no 7th. That specificity generates a special harmony with interesting possibilities. The notes layout (pattern) of this model is different from the other Zenko models: it's a handpan pattern! That's a must-have Zenko for those who want to practice until getting their own handpan. The Zenko can also be played in a standing position, on a collapsable and adjustable stand specifically designed for it. An essential accessory to increase your mobility with your Zenko.

Spacedrum Evolution 13 notes - 60 cm - Chromatic
The chromatic Spacedrum® is, until now, the only instrument from the handpan (Pantam) family recently created to propose a complete chromatic scale! Bigger than the diatonic and pentatonic models, it has 13 notes which really open new horizons to the musicians. It's no more necessary to buy several instruments to build a chromatic scale! This model can be put on a stand or on your laps despite it's a bit larger than its little brothers. The chromatic scale induce a new notes layout on the top (with four notes) which requires a little mental gymnastic to control the instrument. Thanks to a long research & development work in partnership with an engineering high school we’re happy to release the 4th generation Spacedrum®, made out of a special stainless alloy. The properties of this special alloy are particularly adapted for the outdoor playing: totally rustproof, even in the extrem climates (see shores, tropics...), hard enough to keep the tuning for years (in normal conditions of use). Added to that, the Spacedrum® Evolution (4th gen) develops more sustain and more sound volume while respecting the Spacedrum® original sound. This instrument is fragile and needs to be protected when it's not played. Our bags are specially designed for a good protection of the Spacedrum®. With the chromatic Spacedrum® you can explore all the harmonic possibilities of any kind of music! The chromatic scale is: C4 C#4 D4 Eb4 E4 F4 F#4 G4 G#4 A4 Bb4 B4 C5
