    Hello there, I'm Sam. I've been playing the Kalimba since 5/22/2020 and this is my progress and journey. I wanted to share the melodies this enchanting instrument makes through covers of my favorite songs. Feel free to comment any song requests you would like me to do in the future!

    The flat wooden without a hole sounds the best.

      those are called flat-board kalimbas

    i always liked to shake my Kalimba when i played because it sounded nice, i had no idea it was a vibrato effect😭🤣

    Hi Sam, I like the sound of No. 3. It has a smoother and more of a rounded sound when you play the notes. In No. 2, the notes sounds sharp, the pitch sound high. It has that plucking sounds like a music box. No.1 is nice, its has a deep tone when you play the notes. But No. 3 has a richer and more of a fuller sound overall than rest of the two Kalimba. (Just my opinion)🧐
    🙏🙏🙏

      Great analysis dav chow! I definitely like the number 3 the best because of exactly what you said. So i tend to use it more often as you can see in my previous videos hehe.

    I like the 3rd one - flat board kalimba.😍

  • @TheCAG1976
    @TheCAG1976 Před rokem +11

    I really like this comparison! I recently bought a kalimba but it is one of the hollow ones like the first one you have. Although I like the sound of it alone, I do not like it's sound the best in this clear comparison. After I become possibly more advanced with this thing I'm really looking to purchase a 34 key kalimba that is not a hollow body.

    I have a flat board before. But i give it to my friend, and now i use the hollow one. Future, i want buy the flat board again because the sound of flat board is better and interesting 😂

    I have a hallow kalimba and really love it. But now I want a flat bord one too ❤! I'm glad you can get a good one for fairly cheap. Only just started maybe 2 weeks ago and I'm hooked!

    Number two sounds the best in my opinion. It sounds like a music box, and this might be weird, but it reminds me of my childhood :)

    I think the 3rd one is nicest to me, I guess because of the consistency of the tone? Not sure, but it's the one I like the most. Great video!

    • @SamSalvador
      @SamSalvador  Před 2 lety +4

      Yeah I'm glad you liked the one I use the most. I definitely feel like it's the most mic friendly kalimba because of the consistency of the loudness. No peak levels you know?

    the hollow sound too much bass for me..
    cause i like to learn to play canon in C or D, acrilyc sound nice, but i still want to try that third kalimba..
    haven't bought it yet.😅

    • @SamSalvador
      @SamSalvador  Před 2 lety +2

      The 3rd kalimba is great once you are already used with playing since it's twice (or more) the weight of the hollow one.

    I love the third one, but are there any disadvantages to not having a hole? Most cheap kalimbas have holes and I don't understand why that one doesn't.

      It all depends on you. When you are happy with the current one you have then it's totally fine to have just one. The important thing is it inspires u to play consistently ☺️

      You should practice with the one you currently have for now and buy it as a reward for all the progress you made. The whale kalimba is quite wide and heavier than usual kalimbas so it won't be great for practicing songs.
