Take a look at my latest tutorial in this 'How To Play Kalimba' series where I teach you about Kalimba playing techniques! ruclips.net/video/TEi74uSWOww/видео.html
Don’t forget Violin: Slow tedious tuning on small pegs and if you can’t tune it with the small ones you have to yank at the big pegs and risk snapping the entire string :>
This made me chuckle. Also, a little tip to get cleaner notes are to use a proper vibration tuner. I'm a guitarist so I just use my guitar tuner because I'm obsessed with accuracy
스테파니 Stephanie 조셉 Hey that’s awesome! I already have quite a bit of musical experience so this is just something to calm the nerves and be soothing during this quarantine period. I’m very excited to receive it!
yeah if you use them you wont build up them calluses. When I first stated playing the uke I would bleed and it would be so painful, after a month or two it completely stopped bothering me since I got calluses.
@@emilie2667 lol I figured that was the case. It's kinda funny how I never had that probably cause I would play until my fingers were numb, but they never ended up bleeding. They were pretty sore though XD.
When I brought my kalimba I thought it was already tuned, but now that I found your video and downloaded the app... I was completely wrong lol. Thank you, now the sound is really better
Honestly, thank you for this. I’ve been wanting to play an instrument and I specifically chose this one cause of the beautiful sounds it makes. Mine is arriving Tuesday. :)
I always wanted to learn to play the piano, but now that I've discovered the kalimba, that's my new obsession. The best thing about kalimbas (is that the plural) in my opinion is that they sound pretty even when you're just playing random notes.
Yeah i really like piano before i discovered kalimba and i can't afford a piano class as i have to attend my tuition class and then i discovered kalimba and boom! Fall in love with it!
I really want to buy and play the Kalimba buT I have no idea what the notes are and I know nothing about music language 😭😭I jus want to play this beautiful instrument
Hey there! In my opinion, the Kalimba is great for people who are completely new to music. Any music will be confusing and scary to any newcomer, but if you do your research and practise a lot then skill will definitely come. Try watching my 'How To Play Kalimba' series for a bit of guidance and if you have any questions at all then feel free to ask me :)
KalimbaCam I have a question, is there specific care for the wood when you have a kalimba? Because I heard about splitting of the wood or something from somewhere
@@ranger4758 nah just make sure it doesn't get too dry. You should always humidify any wood instrument. If you want,.go to any music store and ask them for one and just keep it in a sealed bag. Cheers
Great tutorial. Im receiving my kalimba today and cant wait to play it! I've, for sure, subscribed.😃 BTW..you sound just like the guy in the Headspace app😊
@@terezatomaskova3855 here's a nice place to start from www.kalimbamagic.com/blog/tag/Free%20Tablature and there's loads of video's on RUclips on it, so find a Kalimba song you like on RUclips and play it on the slowest speed so you can follow what they're doing.
Thanks for sharing this. Just got my kalimba from SLINT on Amazon and I've been trying to learn the basics so this vid is really helpful. More power to you!
So btw my mom and dad are mad because i cant play any music instrument but, i decided to learn new music instrument (kalimba) and of course my parent are happy becuz i can play my first music instrument ( kalimba )😊😊😊😊
Piano: “you should finish learning the song” Guitar: “you should pick a song to play next” Kalimba: *”WHAT? I CANT HEAR YOU-“* Ps. I don’t even have a kalimba. Edit: it looks like i’m going to buy one, sorry piano sorry guitar you just became friends but i just-
So informative! I just bought Kalimba today bc its one of my dream, Im just playing it at my phone (app kalimba) but now, im holding it and watching this. Thanks so much!
My daughter ordered like this..I don't have any idea what it is kalimba the. I search in yt wow its just amazing so I decided also to buy one for me..I want rk learn I follow you sir so that I could get info about kalimba...
My mother is buying me one so I started learning songs on an app and I’m really excited so I’m watching a bunch of videos and this helped me know what to do! Thank you
I don’t know why I’m here, I don’t have a kalimba, i should be trying to fix my guitar string that popped because it was old and not working, i think I’m having a life crisis
I want a lo-fi song using a Kalimba, a harp, a ukulele, a cello, a xylophone, and a keyboard. And in the same album another song written with a kazoo, an otametone, a didgeridoo, and bagpipes.
VERY helpful, YOU made it look so easy breezy, though it's not! Lol! Thx for taking the time showing us peeps the "how's, Etc"; much appreciated it in full!☺❤
so, its great way to practice and at least memorize songs when you get kalimba one day. i use app called Real Kalimba on phone and i memorized few songs and can play them at like 0.75 speed. im gonna buy kalimba in summer and its better than not having previous experience at all. plus you hold phone and play with thumbs just like real kalimba, so its great simulation
So I bought a kalimba and a small desk, I unpacked both at the same time, thought the hammer definitely came with the desk (since I had to set it up). Played this video later that day, then it all made sense lol
Me: Looking up How To Play a Piano RUclips: How To Play Kalimba - Tuning, Technique and Practice Scales Me: Amazon I just Got a Kalimba This Video Was Super Helpful Thanks!
I wanted to play piano. So I bought a cheap Casio. The keys were hard and sound was worse than free apps on Android. But I most important thing is, I never get the feeling of playing an instrument. It would play same recorded sound to my hard press and soft press. Then I bought kalimba and loved it since day one. I had no problem with keys being opposite side of each other. And it gave me feeling like playing a real instrument.
Hey there. It is definitely not hard at all to maintain a Kalimba. I suggest to start off by purchasing a cheaper Kalimba to see how you like it at first and then go from there. Let me know if you have any more questions :)
I just got my kalimba today and I'm here to tell you that plucking the tines just right is a lot trickier than I thought. If you've been using a kalimba app to learn and dip your toes in, wonderful! But you are definitely in for a surprise.

I have an upcoming exam and i don't even own a kalimba, WHAT AM I DOING HERE??
Procrastinating
Fr
Haaha same here. I don't have a kalimba nor have any plans to buy one. I guess i just wanna know how this thing works.
Same here. My exams starts day after tomorrow and here I am 😂
RUclips gets you everywhere man
“And here’s your tuner”
*takes out hammer*
etello2221 Huh?
-simplified- ?
etello2221 its not funny :(
@@captshamshol3050 it is (:
*300x speed*
Piano tuning: complicated and time consuming
Guitar tuning: peg winder things
Kalimba: *HAMMER*
Lmao I laughed so hard at this
I have to learn playing kalimba and I'll get a full pack xd
Don’t forget

What the fuck you have to turn a piano
Who else doesn't even have a kalimba but has been watching kalimba videos lately? lol
스테파니 Stephanie 조셉 I’ll have one soon 😊
@@michaelmatthews1567 That's cool! I ordered one after posting that comment a month ago lol
스테파니 Stephanie 조셉 Hey that’s awesome! I already have quite a bit of musical experience so this is just something to calm the nerves and be soothing during this quarantine period. I’m very excited to receive it!
I started to buy kalimba after watching kalimba videos hahah
I did that too, but I ordered one and it arrived yesterday. now it would make more sense for me to watch the videos 😂
I don't even have a kalimba. I always watch tutorials and help videos for things I don't even own.
Why? I do not know.
That's because you're a dolphin with no brain! 😂😂😂
@@louistrentdarby9248 I know that's a joke but actually, dolphins are one of the smartest animals.
Ur not alone i have been watching how to feed tigers and now im here like what am i doing at this point
Yt probably thinks I'm insane by the amount of how to vids I watch if they think I own whatever the how to thing is about
In case you get one
Don’t need no rubber picks, Get them calluses up
😎
yeah if you use them you wont build up them calluses. When I first stated playing the uke I would bleed and it would be so painful, after a month or two it completely stopped bothering me since I got calluses.
@@emilie2667 I never had my fingers bleed. I've been playing for about a year or two, although I did play a little bit of guitar before I mine.
TurTleguy123r I never played an instrument before and played constantly for the first 2 weeks. It was pretty painful for me 😂
@@emilie2667 lol I figured that was the case. It's kinda funny how I never had that probably cause I would play until my fingers were numb, but they never ended up bleeding. They were pretty sore though XD.
When I brought my kalimba I thought it was already tuned, but now that I found your video and downloaded the app... I was completely wrong lol. Thank you, now the sound is really better
Glad that I helped you out :))
I just watched a video of game of thrones theme played on a kalimba, now I want one 😭
couldn't relate more
Same here brother ..
Same lol
Lol, same here.
Same!
I don't have a kalimba but i have a kalimba app and that is a really good practice so if you want to buy a kalimba you already know how to play it
hi what's the name of the app? ☺
Just search kalimba😊
Thanks for the great idea! I’ll have to try that!
Yeah me too! I install the app and learn from it ;D
It seems on magazin play there is not any app called kalimba
I just stumbled upon this instrument five minutes ago and I want one (cause owning five isntruments isn't already enough >.
Have you already mastered all the other 5 instruments already or something?
@@StarLight-sy4wn Nope >.< Mediocre I would say but I get bored pretty easily
@@StayStayBeBe Wich ones du you own?
@@SigmaAlphaMeatEater Piano, Flute, Ukelele, Electric guitar and not one but two violins xp
I know what you mean. I have a ukulele, recorders (soprano, alto, and sopronino), dulcimer, and harmonica...never stop learning something new!

I wanted to learn about kalimba, but I ended up admiring your hands. 😂
This was soo helpful thank youuu
Me: *watching kalimba tutorial*
Also me: *only uses kalimba app*
so, its great way to practice and at least memorize songs when you get kalimba one day.
i use app called Real Kalimba on phone and i memorized few songs and can play them at like 0.75 speed.
im gonna buy kalimba in summer and its better than not having previous experience at all.
plus you hold phone and play with thumbs just like real kalimba, so its great simulation
This was very helpful. Thank you so much. ❤️
You're welcome! Glad that it helped.
So I bought a kalimba and a small desk, I unpacked both at the same time, thought the hammer definitely came with the desk (since I had to set it up). Played this video later that day, then it all made sense lol

Very useful viduo, i learned so many things including toning, thank u
I wanted to play piano. So I bought a cheap Casio. The keys were hard and sound was worse than free apps on Android. But I most important thing is, I never get the feeling of playing an instrument. It would play same recorded sound to my hard press and soft press.
Then I bought kalimba and loved it since day one. I had no problem with keys being opposite side of each other. And it gave me feeling like playing a real instrument.
What is the name of that tunner app?
Datuner
Devzio - i tried looking it up and
nothing :( perhaps they changed their name?
Mitch it's still DaTuner for me
dianne It’s not coming on my app store either
It's fun seeing how many people are adding on to my post with ME TOO! How fun. Now, if we can just learn to play them!
I'm looking for a new hobby, and I'm starting to interested in kalimba. But is it hard to maintain a kalimba?

Love it, ready to buy one
I just got my kalimba today and I'm here to tell you that plucking the tines just right is a lot trickier than I thought. If you've been using a kalimba app to learn and dip your toes in, wonderful! But you are definitely in for a surprise.
Is it too hard?
I love this content thank you
Thank you for sharing!!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Omg I want a kalimba so baddddd!! 😭
I got my kalimba yesterday for my birthday. And I only know it from one video on Facebook.
I'm not saying I don't care about it. I love it.
Like. Good info about tuning.
Thanks. Glad you found it useful.
I've been using that same tuning app for years. DaTuner I think? Has always worked well for me.
Great video. I used to have a couple of these. Had no idea how to tune them. Or how they were tuned
I'm glad to see that it helped!
I kinda wanna get one but I’m already juggling trying to learn guitar and ukulele, so this will just add one more thing I gotta master😶
Well I definitely recommend giving it a go! Since you already learn guitar and ukulele, the Kalimba should come quite naturally.
Thank this was very helpful!
You're welcome!
My bestfriend gave me kalimba for my birthday, and im here to learn how to use it 😄
My kitten Bruce loves the sound so now I want to learn to play music for him ❤️
Hi can you tell me please the tuning app you used? Thanks 🙋🏻♀️😊
