Is the RAV Anima Compatible with the RAV Vast & Tongue Drums Course?

Yes, absolutely!

Our RAV Vast & Tongue Drum Course is fully compatible with the RAV Anima.

How do the RAV Anima’s multiple dings work with the course?

A standard RAV Vast usually has one central bass note, while the RAV Anima has several.

When learning a new pattern, simply choose one of the Anima’s central notes and use it as your main ding, just as demonstrated in the course. This does not make the exercises more difficult to follow.

Once you feel comfortable with the pattern, the additional dings become a great creative advantage. You can alternate between them within the same pattern to create your own basslines and explore new musical possibilities.

In other words, the RAV Anima’s multiple dings give you more playing options without changing the fundamental techniques taught in the course.
