Hapi Drums is a set of four steel tongue drums crafted by renowned instrument makers Grahm Doe and Tricia Kelly. These drums are known for their smooth fundamental tones wrapped in complex overtones and harmonics, delivering a long, mellow sustain. Soundiron meticulously recorded these instruments using a wide stereo pair of Neumann TLM 103s and a binaural Rode NT-SF1 to provide distinct tonal options. The library includes the low "Origin" D minor model (D3 - A4), two "Slim Tunable" mid models (A3 - E5), and the small treble Tini (A4 - A5).
