The D4 Double Drone has been developed with a lot of care and testing over the past year! In fact, I've been working on this flute since IAMSOUND started. I remember one night on Kauai.... I was playing a D4 drone flute out under the stars at night and a shooting star went by right in my solo. It made an impact on me and here we are!
We've been working mostly on the positioning of the holes to make this large flute easy to play for most hands. It has been a difficult journey but we are finally ready with it! The holes are reachable and we even have little volcano-like rings around each hole so you can feel that they are securely pressed.
The airway has been designed to allow "just enough" air to keep those nice breathy tones flowing without fading out too fast. As much as I love the G4 and the original F#, This might very well now be my new favorite drone flute!
This D4 Double Flute is tuned to 432 Hz so you can have fun with it in music circles and jam sessions. It's in the 4th Octave and has a somewhat tall / narrow shape.
A lot of love and energy has gone into the development of these flutes (along with some flute solos while I watch them print) and I am excited to see these in the wild!

One of my favorites!
Thanks a lot, David!
This was an anniversary gift for my husband. He loves it.
Plays great! I love these flutes, they sound wonderful, and they look great in two time colors. Fast shipping to boot.
Good
Hi there! Thank you so much for your review. We're glad to hear that you're enjoying the D4 Drone Flute in 432 Hz. Happy playing!
I am blown away by the sound quality of this instrument, and very pleased with my choice of register and tuning. The company responded promptly to a question about shipping timeline and actually bumped my shipment earlier in the queue when I asked about when I could expect it. Some comments:
I'm a woman with what I imagine are about average sized hands and arms. I'm 5'-6". Even with chanter fingers (held straight like playing a bagpipe rather than curved for other instruments), I can't get a good seal on the holes. My arms just aren't long enough to have my hands align perpendicular to the flute. I'm trying different positions, including pressing the flute against my body rather than trying to involve thumbs, but so far, it's not comfortable at all. I wonder whether an angled mouthpiece might help smaller people play this instrument? Or whether putting the holes on the edge of the flute instead of the flat front might be easier to hold?
I absolutely LOVE the drone aspect of the flute, and I'd totally go for a three pipe flute in my next (smaller) purchase.
Build quality is excellent - solid, great sound, and joints fit tightly while still being disassemblable.
Regarding purchase experience, I wish there was production tracking available, or at least the ability to check the web site to see where you were in the production process. My delivery arrived via Amazon, which was quite surprising!
Hi Annie. Thanks for the thoughtful feedback! We're glad you love the sound and build. We're exploring design tweaks like angled mouthpieces to improve comfort and will work on better production tracking. We appreciate your support!
