As you explore the instrument, a gentle landscape of sound unfolds. The MN-10 is filled with different musical personalities, allowing you to drift from the familiar hum of a tongue drum to the sparkling tones of gamelan, or even the meditative echo of a crystal bowl.

The addition of environmental music and nature-inspired backgrounds further deepens the experience, making each session feel like a journey through a peaceful soundscape.
The Mood Pan does not stop at its internal voices. It opens up a world of possibilities through modern connectivity. Bluetooth streaming lets you blend your favorite music with the MN-10’s tranquil tones, while the built-in speaker system fills the room with warmth.

Designed with both portability and versatility in mind, the MN-10 runs on batteries or USB-C power, making it as comfortable on a living room table as it is in an outdoor meditation space. You can set it on your lap, close your eyes, and let your fingers wander. Roland’s Mood Pan MN-10 is an invitation to slow down and savor the beauty of each note, letting music flow gently through your day and leave a trace of peace behind.
