FAQ

Each tuning of the Infinity Drum has its own unique personaliy, just like us! The key is to pair yourself with the drum that resonates best with you, watch videos of the different scales to get an idea of what kind of sound you like, you can find videos on the listing for each scale in the shop. We also have a YouTube channel under the name "Infinity Drum" where you can hear more of the Infinity Drum, and learn everything there is to know about the Infinity Drum.

   

Everyone! Musicians, and non musicians of all ages can play the Infinity Drum, it is very responsive and easy to get the hang of, once you start, you won't want to stop!

   

The second generation of Infinity Drum is made of stainless steel and is highly rust resistant, it is still recommended to apply oil to the surface of the drum once in a while, oils like Froglube, Phoenix Handpan oil or even coconut oil will do the trick. To clean your instrument you can wipe if down with a soft cloth then apply oil, for a deep clean you can use rubbing alcohol then re apply oil. avoid using strong solvents or abrasive cloths (like a scouring pad) as they may damage the colour of the drum. As an extra precaution it is not recommended to store instruments in carrying bags for extended periods of time as they can trap moisture on the drum. It is also good to know that over time the brass ring may slightly darken, do not be alarmed, this is the aging process of the brass and has a nice look.

Unlike handpans, tongue drums do not require re tuning. The Infinity Drum has been exposed to extreme heat and cold for long periods of time with no effect on the tuning. It can be said with confidence that the Infinity Drum is much more weather resistant than the people playing it! Because of thick steel, the infinity drum is very durable, but not indestructible. Dropping the drum or hitting the leafs with an unreasonable amount of force may cause the instrument to go out of tune. It is best to be mindful when using heavier mallets, otherwise you'll be ok!
