    Ayasa Handpan

    Hand percussion · Germany

    Handpans after the Hang are specified by their scale — D Kurd, C# Amara, F Low Pygmy — because the tuning is the instrument. Ayasa's are nitrided steel, hand-hammered, and made to a chosen note layout.

    Meinl Cajon Bass Pedal

    Hand percussion · Germany

    A cable-driven beater that lets a seated cajon player add a bass drum with one foot, which is how the instrument ended up in duo and singer-songwriter setups where a kit will not fit.

    Meinl Dunun Set

    Hand percussion · Germany

    A djembe ensemble sits on three rope-tuned bass drums — dundunba, sangban, and kenkeni — played with a stick in one hand and a bell in the other. They carry the melody of West African drumming; the djembe solos over them.
