Don's Steel Pan Trainer

About this app

Play the steel pans on your Android tablet!


This steel pan trainer is meant for use on a tablet; although it works on some phones, the layout is very small.

Note: the highest note on the tenor pan does not sound on a Google Nexus 7, but does on some other tablets.
You may need to use headphones, as the notes are quiet.

Ratings and reviews

This is literally everything I want in a music playing app shy of doing actual composition. It's lightweight, has no ads, and has a great selection of configurations with great sound. Perfect for someone who is trying to get a feel for playing the steel pan drums.

This is a great app for tennor players, and with all of the new layouts for different seconds that the developer has been adding, it's really useful for other band sections too. I'd previously commented that the layouts for the seconds on the app didn't unfortunately match the layout that c we used, and Don kindly reached out and offered to add in the layout of we got a photograph over. That's brilliant customer services+ makes this app really engaging +makes learning pan accessible for all. Thx

It good, just needs a feature where pans can be exchanged or change positions, cuz i play the KEVI double guitars, but the app has the pans in reverse but it may be in order for others. A feature should also be added where pans can be rotated incase the note placements arent ideal for the person

What’s new

Added double seconds and double guitars for Pan Nation.

Also a new arrangement for the tenor bases.
