Ambassador for exceptional instruments and microphones
Quality and refinement matter deeply to me.
I work with makers of exceptional instruments and microphones, and I’m proud to showcase and represent their quality. Through me, you can get discount codes, as well as demos and the chance to try things out at my gatherings in Paris (20th arrondissement).
Handpan
Handpan
Two worlds that complement each other.
Acoustic
Exceptional Yishama handpan
One of the best handpan makers in the world (Israel / Hungary). Artisan craftsmanship, instruments with up to 19 notes, deep bass and bright highs. I proudly represent them as an ambassador.
Electronic
Neotone¹
Digital handpan with 10 notes, every scale, studio quality. Guided purchase: personal discount code + 6-year warranty.
Electronic
Neotone¹ Mutant
Digital handpan with 19 notes and an LCD screen, for maximum expression. Guided purchase: discount code + 6-year warranty.
The steel, the hand, the breath of the room.
Every scale, headphones, the stage.
The one real difference: the Neotone (built by Soundventure) is ordered through my calculator, with a personal discount code and a 6-year warranty. For Yishama, I am an ambassador and affiliate: you order on their site, through my link. Two ways to buy, one standard of quality.

Gonilélé harp · La Maison du Ngoni
A travel harp-lute created by Joris Feuillâtre. I’m an ambassador for La Maison du Ngoni. 10 strings (€440) or 12 strings with built-in pickup (€520). Photos, videos, unboxing and ordering on the dedicated page.
Canvas drum · Cœur de Son
The drum made by Florel Viardot at the Cœur de Son workshop in Thaon-les-Vosges (France): a waterproof canvas, with no animal material, stretched over a wooden shell and tuned with air. An inner tube, inflated with a pump, sets the tension, from deep lows up to the mids; humidity doesn’t slacken it, so you can play outdoors. Every drum is a one-off with its own name, and the pattern can be hand-painted by Sandrine (quote on request). About 3 weeks to make. Five sizes, from 40 cm (€260) to 65 cm (€380); there is also a standing version (65 cm, €520).
I play one myself, “Géode de feu”, and you can try it at the showroom (demo only: you order from Florel). If you prefer hide, the skin drum by L’Âme du Tambour is right next to it: two materials, two sounds. −10% with my code, to enter at checkout.
Shamanic frame drum · L’Âme du Tambour
A handcrafted frame drum by Julien (L’Âme du Tambour), an aligned, passionate maker of real integrity. Enjoy −5% with the code David-Tambour.
Microphones
Microphones
Sound capture for acoustic handpan, voice and gong.
Hisong AirStudio S1 microphone
The first all-in-one mobile studio: dual-mode mic, wireless monitoring, audio interface, wireless receiver for your phone (RX Mini), magnetic mount and case. Perfect for voice, acoustic handpan and gonilélé: a true portable studio.
Prices (VAT included, shipping to France): the S1 alone €270.95; with the RX Plus (+€90) €360.95, i.e. €342.91 with my −5% code and free shipping.
My advice: if you want to use the mic to play live, you need the RX Plus (Universal Pack): it sends the sound to the PA, the mixing desk or a camera.
Demos, and you can buy it on the spot, at my gatherings in Paris.
– AirStudio S1 mic (Standard Pack): €270.95
– with the RX Plus (Universal Pack, +€90): €360.95
With my code DAVID-LESAGE-SAVE-5 (−5%), the S1 + RX Plus comes to €342.91, free shipping.
My code: if you go through my link, it should apply on its own. If you don’t see it at checkout, enter it by hand: the button just below copies it.
Muling MP1 microphone + HMP-2 preamp
The MP1 is a contact-condenser microphone made for the acoustic handpan. It comes with the HMP-2 preamp, which takes up to two MP1 mics, for clear, precise stereo capture with no feedback. Perfect for the stage and for recording.
Forbrain headset · voice training
A bone-conduction headset with a microphone, to hear your own voice live, for singing or voice + handpan. You speak or sing, and your voice comes straight back to you through the bones, just in front of your ears, run through a dynamic filter that lifts the highs and softens the lows. You hear yourself differently, more clearly. I’ve tested it: the experience is striking. It isn’t a stage mic, it’s a training tool, a few minutes a day reading aloud or singing, to work on your voice, diction, pitch and focus. Standalone, no screen, no app. I don’t expect anything medical from it: I recommend it for voice work. Through my link, the −10% applies by itself; otherwise, enter my code in the basket.

What holds the instrument up, and what carries it. Tried at the showroom before it lands here.
Atlas handpan stands · Pro & All
The magnetic tripods from the Italian maker Atlas. The handpan rests on a floating disc with eight protected magnets, with no screws or straps. Two models: the Atlas Pro in aluminium, telescopic, 1.8 kg, carrying bag included (€250); the Atlas All in wood, whose head wedges between your legs for playing seated, then takes feet and extensions for playing standing (€270). I’m a partner of the brand: both are at the showroom, ready to try.

one sec: take back control of your screen time
The app that genuinely helps me not get lost in the scroll. Before you open an app that hooks you (social media…), one sec adds a short pause, the length of a breath, and the compulsive urge fades. It’s simple, and for me it’s one of the very few things that has actually worked. A science-backed approach (studies with the Max Planck Institute). Free for the essentials; get 30% off Premium through my link.
ÖKO filtering bottle
The bottle I take everywhere, all the time, as a musician on the road: water is the single most important thing there is. Instant filtration with no wait and no electricity, tested by an independent COFRAC-accredited lab against more than 200 contaminants. I’m glad to represent a product that’s perfect for every traveller. Enjoy −10% with my code.
Structured · daily planner
The app I use to organise my days as a musician-entrepreneur, between concerts, workshops and project development. A clear visual timeline instead of a to-do list that keeps piling up. No affiliate programme with them yet; I just share it because I genuinely use it.
