This Carnival a “digital” version of the national instrument was presented by Salomon Cupid. See a demonstration of the new e-Pan:
I am not sure if this is a synthetic or a sample based player, but in the end the sound must convince the players. In the demonstration Mr Cupid says the sound of the pan is “mimiked”, but I have some doubts if it is really possible to have a authentic pan sound without samples.

Hi Salomon,
Met you a few years ago in Scotland with Toronto All Stars. I’m interested in buying an e pan in UK to use with school and community bands, can you suggest how I can do that please? I might be able to get a friend to buy one from Trini during Carnival this year, is this easier?
Thanks, Dave
