The HAPI Omni drum was designed to harness some of the attributes of handpans into a steel tongue drum instrument. HAPI drum has combined their knowledge of tongue drums and handpans to create the unique Omni drum! Omni is an innovative tongue drum shape with a great sound!

Omni uses a scale arrangement similar to many handpans, where the lowest note in the middle is below the outer side notes. This adds range and versatility to the scale, allowing you to play any note combination and produce a beautiful sound. The tongue layout adds harmonic frequencies to each note when played. This creates a more complex and rich musical tone. By placing low notes next to the appropriate higher notes, desirable overtones are created, which compliment the timbre of the sound.

The HAPI Omni drum is a great tongue drum to learn hand playing techniques, similar to what can be used on a handpan. It also comes with mallets so that beginners can get a great sound right away! The Omni is recommended for beginner, intermediate, and advanced players.
