Here is a new experimental Iskra handpan. A different steel has been used for the top shell. It is not stainless steel, surprisingly. It is usually utilized in the aerospace industry, but why not make a handpan from it?

The increase in sustain is readily apparent. On top of that, the dynamic range and volume is breath taking. Many more Iskra handpans will be built from this material. The audio you hear is completely un-edited. No effects have been used.

The sound model is Ida: (F) C Db E F G Ab C Db
