It seems like a great deal for people who want handpans in different scales-- you save so much money. Also the triggering you can do as well is priceless.

I had a Neotone - the instrument is interesting, especially great is that you have all the scales you could dream of. The biggest problem for me was that to get a good sound, you need exceptionally expensive and professional speakers - otherwise, the sound gets lost and is not at all clear, so playing on the street is out of the question because the instrument loses its beauty. It is best suited for professional musicians who don't have to spend a large amount on speakers just to play the instrument and who want to combine this instrument with the music they create.

i did buy Bose S1 Pro+, the sound was not good... a lot of "overdrive" and missing tones, maybe equalizar would help but i did not want to try anymore.

No shoulder sounds and at least to me I do not hear the slap sounds??

[@Jonas_Gebauer]

[@ager1291]

Shoulder sounds are here Indeed, slaps too and they get the harmonics of the tone they are next to.
And unlike the wave, it seems to be samples too

[@schjlr]

Not autonomous, no speakers, wired bottom connector.
