| The Keytam has a number of features added to the tambourine form found on the Jogad'oc. The Keytam has the pitch bending mechanism added at the end of a wooden arm that extends off the drum, this amkes the instrument more ergonomic when played. The mechanism for pitch bend is similar to the prior version but includes a lock that allows any pitch to be locked inplace as well as a lock for the snare to lock the snare into various positions. Both instruments feature a set of jingles chimes on the tambourine but the Keytam has the jingles on a separate loop of wood that allows for them to be adjusted. | The Keytam has a number of features added to the tambourine form found on the Jogad'oc.
