The HANG is a new hand-played steel instrument developed by PANArt in Switzerland. We describe the modes of vibration, observed by holographic interferometry and the sound radiation from the instrument, observed by measuring the sound intensity in an anechoic room. A low-voice HANG is compared with a high voice-HANG.

ANALYSIS AND RESYNTHESIS OF THE HANDPAN SOUND
Handpan is a term used to describe a group of struck metallic musical instruments, which are similar in shape and sound to the Hang 1 (developed by PANArt in 2000). The handpan is a hand played…

Sound of the HANG
TLDR
The HANG was excited by taking multiple samples of each of a number of striking techniques with the hand, including single strokes from the soft part of the finger, as well as, the finger nail itself .
