    That rattling sound is produced by buzzers - those little metal rings beaded on the tines. You can remove the buzzers if you prefer the music box sound.

    This layout is much more convenient than the standard one row. It allows rapid playing without accidentally plucking nearby tines.

    Reminds me so much of the Haunted Mansion Holiday Music Box. After hearing this and two other recordings of the Freygish karimba, I ordered one. I have been visiting the website for a LONG time, wanting to get an instrument, but not sure which one I liked best. For some reason, I had not heard the Freygish until yesterday. Truly enchanting!

    • @drgnzadiel101

      im stuck between the freygish, lotus, or 17 note treble. not sure which yet. and i want to try the Ghostly Music box myself since im a huge HM fan and go every week to ride it lol.

    • @AngusMacFurgus
      @AngusMacFurgus Před 7 lety +1

      I'd be curious to know which one you end up getting. I had also looked at getting a treble. The Lotus is also nice and would likely be my next purchase. I'm waiting to get the Freygish - so excited! You are SO lucky to get to ride the HM every week. 😄

    I have this type of kalimba. I tuned it down to A harmonic minor because that fixed a dead tine. Great now for mezzo. The buzzer beads don't record well. IRL, much different, they are like a rain-stick, hypnotic and adding color, complex timbre to the overtones. I'd add these beads to some other kalimbas if I could buy them. ASMR!!

  • @DatsWhatHeSaid

    Hey, did you have to bend the shortest tine a little bit, to tune it that high?
    I just tuned mine to the Freygish scale through this video and the shortest one doesn't quite catch on that high, sounds dull.

    • @SharonCullenArt
      @SharonCullenArt Před 5 lety

      Lugh314 Ninorey123 the difference in dialect calls it a KaRimba instead of kalimba. But a Snasula is a name given to a kalimba attached to a drum. It is branded by a company called hand and drum I believe. It isn’t very old. It has been around about 9 years. So it is one kalimba with that given name. These are sometimes called Saregama kalimbas, or split key, or high/low key. They can be made into just about any tuning like the Freygish here, or the Lotus, and many others. But there are also split key kalimbas that are in pentatonic tuning and those usually have anywhere from 5 to 11 tines. They’d can also be made on one level kalimbas as well.

    Здравствуйте, SaReGaMa!
    Очарованный Вашими композициями, недавно я стал счастливым обладателем волшебной Freygish каримбы (это мой первый музыкальный инструмент). Сейчас разучиваю композиции из сборника для фригийского строя от Марка и пытаюсь записывать свои мелодии в KTabS. Очень хотел бы разучить и эту бесподобную вещь, но, к сожалению, на Вашем сайте ее нет в предложении... Не поможете с табулатурой?
    Заранее очень признателен.

      Indeed, the general tuning can be interpreted as a C harmonic minor scale, but I start the composition from G and proceed to G#-B-C-D-D#-F and that is a Freygish scale.
