But, because a pan drum must be hand built and tuned 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 first sampled hand pans in 2007 – releasing the best selling ‘Pan Drum’ sampled instrument, featuring two different models of Hang drum. Now, as the art of making hand pans progresses, new instruments are being added to the genre, so we decided it was time to update the library with new drums and a cutting edge Kontakt player interface.
