South Pacific beats quiz

The Pato is the modern version of the lali. The designer that made the drum is Rachael Hall. 

When it was Rachael's last year of university she decied to make a instrument. The instrument that she want to make was the lali but Rachael made it with mordern age.

She used the lathe to shape the drum's body. The milling machine was used to carve out the channel.

The new innovation for the instrument were the pitch adjuster, volume dial and the omnidirectional microphone. The instrument that Rachael made is now called the Pato.
Pato means "to strike something" in Tongan.

The pato can be played with eletricity and without eletricity. Addition to that it has a microphone so it can be hooked up to a computer.
There is only one Pato so Rachael is working to make more on a daily basis.
