How to Choose a Handpan That's Right for You?

Choosing the right handpan within the price range of $100 to $500 involves several important considerations. Here are key factors to help you make an informed decision:

Scale Selection: Most of our handpan are on the D minor scale. D minor is often considered more dynamic and is ideal for playing soulful melodies. In contrast, G minor is usually brighter and more lively, suitable for cheerful and lighthearted music styles. We only have the mini handpan available in G minor, but we offer custom orders. If you would like a G minor handpan, please get in touch with us.

Frequency Selection: Consider the tuning frequencies of the handpan. Some are tuned to 432 Hz, known for warmer, softer, more harmonious tones believed to resonate with natural and human vibrations, offering potential healing and relaxation benefits. In comparison, others are tuned to 440 Hz, featuring brighter, more transparent, more focused tones and conforming to the international standard for modern music, suitable for various instruments and contemporary music styles.

Color Preference: The color of the handpan is not just a visual choice; it's a way to express your unique style and taste. Choose a color that resonates with you, making your handpan reflect your personality and enhancing your playing experience.

Handpan typically has 9 or 10 notes. Different note layouts significantly influence harmony and musical expression during play. Explore and experience various layouts to understand how they affect your playing style and expression. Additionally, we offer a golden 11-note handpan, known for its unique playing characteristics. When choosing a handpan:

• The 9-note and 10-note handpan is ideal for those exploring basic note layouts that are often more accessible to play.
• 11-note handpans provide a broader range of notes and harmonic possibilities for players seeking richer musical expression.

Choose the note layout that best suits your musical goals, personal style, and skill level.
