What is a steel tongue drum
A steel tongue drum is a melodic percussion instrument with precision cut tongues on top. The unique tone is created by a tuned vibrating tongue of steel. HAPI drums harness the power of these steel tongues to create a captivating blend of musical tones, reminiscent of traditional wood tongue drums. HAPI steel tongue drums are perfect for music, meditation, yoga, education and therapy.

Very good sound, clear, pure and natural.
I have just tested it installed in my Hapi Ufo Drum, and I'm amazed! I like to test it with my Udu Drum, which is a bit tricky to record. I play through my small amplifiers Roland's Mobile Cube and IK Multimedia's iSound and it works very well. At least in my living room – it's cold outside i Sweden this time of the year! The look of the mic is a bit like a prototype, but one doesn't see it inside the drum do you? Like the notch on the volume control. I think it would be a little tricky to change battery inside the drum and I don't want to remove it to many times 'cos I do not want it to get loose after a while. Maybe you could deliver a couple of rubber washer with is.
Love my HAPI drum travel bag. It fits the drum well. And there is room for mallets.
Great Sound, Fair Price, Need the Right Amplifier & Pre Amp
Ever since I bought my first HAPI Drum I have been in love with both the company and sound of the unique instrument. I've always wanted to do line in recording for the HAPI Drum but have never found a suitable microphone to do the job. The Duoflex microphone works well in the sense of the quality of sound, but there are a couple of issues I have had, but nothing that tweaking can't fix. Mic placement isn't the easiest to assemble, and all the amps that I have used so far have a lot of feedback at a high volume (it has to be low in volume unless if it is a keyboard microphone, but bass and guitar amps have feedback issues), if you don't have a keyboard mic, as long as you are far away from the amp there isn't really a feedback issue. For line in recording, you need to use a Pre Amp and you will most likely need the xlr to 1/4" adapter. I would recommend using a focusrite usb audio interface for the best quality. A cheap audio adapter has a lot of static and I would recommend spending the extra cash for quality. I absolutely recommend this microphone for anyone that wants to use the HAPI Drum live, and if you are using this for recording, just know that you will need additional accessories like a pre-amp as a power source for recording, but I still recommend this product!
