• Shangri-La Scale: A bright, major-leaning scale with a Lydian colour - from deeply melodic to calm and chilled, as Satya describes it.
• Deep F#2 Ding: A very low F#2 fundamental gives the instrument a huge, grounding presence.
• 23 Notes, Over Three Octaves: From F#2 up to F6 - an exceptional range for layered harmonies, bass lines and soaring melodies on a single instrument.
• For Advanced Players: A true mutant build for players who want maximum musical range.
• Satya Craftsmanship: Handcrafted and tuned by Antonio Arvind in Brazil.

The Satya F#2 Shangri-La 23 is one of the most extraordinary instruments we have ever offered. Satya's Shangri-La scale ranges from deeply melodic to a calm, chillout feel - and with 23 notes spanning from a deep F#2 to F6, this Atma Pantam is practically a whole orchestra in one handpan.

For Advanced Players

Built on F#, the Shangri-La combines a major tonality with a raised fourth (C) and a major seventh (F), giving it a bright, open and dreamlike Lydian character. The deep ding and bass notes provide a powerful foundation, while the highest notes sparkle above. It is an instrument for experienced players who want to explore bass lines, chords and melodies at the same time.

Sound and Build

Every Satya instrument is handcrafted and tuned until it "sings". Satya is known for its extended and mutant builds - the workshop holds a world record for the most notes on a single handpan - and the Shangri-La 23 shows that expertise in every note.

About Satya Sound Sculptures

Satya Sound Sculptures is a small handpan workshop in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, led by brothers Antonio Arvind (founder) and Pedro Martins. Antonio began researching the instrument in 2011 and was initiated into the craft in 2014 by Ezahn Bueraheng of Echo Sound Sculpture in Switzerland - the name Satya was born there in 2016, during a residency at the ESS workshop.

Satya calls its instruments Atma Pantam and builds them one at a time, following a philosophy of slow making and continuous research. The workshop is known for pioneering stainless steel handpans in the Americas and for extraordinary extended and mutant builds - including a world record for the most notes on a single handpan.
