Based on the Caribbean Steel Drums and the Indian Ghatam, the Handpan offers a distinctive sound that will enhance your virtual instruments collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe realistic sounding virtual instrument, featuring various playing styles, was created in cooperation with handpan pioneer \u003cstrong\u003eWolfgang Ohmer\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to his experience, the unique sonic character of the handpan was captured in full detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sampled instrument is in the key of D minor (Kurd 9), accordingly the percussive sounds are predominantly in the key of D, while all basic playing techniques such as sustain can be played chromatically. In addition to an accurately sampled instrument, the library offers switchable \u003cstrong\u003epad sounds, modulation options and effects\u003c\/strong\u003e for creating stunning soundscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArticulations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal Handpan contains the most important playing techniques to \u003cstrong\u003ecompose incredibly realistic melodic and rhythmic passages\u003c\/strong\u003e, triggered by keyswitches. Thanks to many years of experience as a Handpan player, Wolfgang Ohmer understands how to use the special sound characteristics of the instrument to its full potential. With up to 57 velocity groups per key, Real Handpan reproduces them in great detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSustain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tone field attack with the fingertip, starting at the round inner edge of the tone field (dimple) with increasing intensity more towards the harder sounding outer edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMute 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft attack on the damped tone field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMute 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard attack on the damped tone field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlam:\u003c\/strong\u003e Short \"drum roll\" with the fingertips, at higher velocities with the fingernails (rasgueado).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShoulder Harmonies:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sounds played with knuckles between the tone fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePercussion: \u003c\/strong\u003eSounds played in the area around the central dome, produced with various striking techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad section is made up of 6 pad sounds specially tuned to the handpan, these can be blended individually or in combination with the original sound. This allows you to quickly create a background atmosphere that accompanies the melodies and harmonies being played.
