I'm still rooting for the hollow one, but because of the DUAL Kalimba, I'm having second thoughts now on which one to get XD

[@LCkalimba]

Haha... personally I like the sound more on board Kalimba. The shipping on dual Kalimba is a bit more pricey though 😆 However, you can also connect the dual Kalimba to your laptop without pick up to record songs as well.

[@byisdead]

@@LCkalimba Oh yeah, I remember you mentioned I can use headphones. My noise-cancelling headphones arrived yesterday. Once I have my kalimba I'll try to record it there. :)

[@LCkalimba]

Philip Decena I have used headphones that has a mic on the headphone cord, not sure what noise canceling headphones would work well or not🤔 You can give it a try. However, you can also invest in a lab mic, which I found make the sound a lot of better.

[@byisdead]

@@LCkalimba Oh I see. Yeah I have that one too. I'll give it a try... Once I've decided which kalimba to get 😅

[@MelisaSJ]

Omg your time stamp is so cute 🥺. Thank you so much for the video 🤍

[@h.e.r.lplayskalimba6060]

The Seeds Kalimbas look so cool and sounds good! 💞

[@LCkalimba]

Agree, I think the sound on the Seeds Kalimbas are pretty good. Definitely more heavy though 🤣

[@KalimbaVerse]

Seeds has a distinct sound, I think in a blindfold test, you'll know if it's seeds 😆

[@exchantedreams]

the Mugen kalimba is such a piece of art!! Really great video, thanks for sharing! :)

[@LCkalimba]

😊 I really like the Mugen Kalimba, it’s beautiful!

[@classiclovinggirl5898]

Really useful tips for making the right choice. Lots of different kalimba types observed and simple sound tests for some of them. I appreciate your work, it helped me a lot to choose right what I need

[@LCkalimba]

Which one did you ending getting? 😃

[@ihacscr9454]

Thank you very much!! I love ❤️ your videos. So helpful.

[@LCkalimba]

Thank you. Glad you like them. Hope you have fun playing the kalimba. 😊

[@devoutmisanthrope5687]

I love that flat board seeds kalimba!

[@KalimbaAddict]

I am so appreciate that you love 2 models of our 20 keys kalimba of Seeds brand. 😊

[@LCkalimba]

The sound of these Kalimbas are good.❤️

[@ihacscr9454]

You are so helpful and clear. Thank you so much!!😊

[@girlwithasong7595]

I love the 20 key kalimba.

[@cee8226]

Ngl, Dual Kalimba sounds good as well. I like the earphone plug 😆👏

[@LCkalimba]

Cee Ditto, that was an important component why I decided to buy it haha

[@KalimbaVerse]

Heyy LC 😊 it's Albert from KalimbaVerse 👋 nice to meet you ❤️✨ this is very helpful, thanks! Earned a new Subscriber, let's both grow on this YT Journey together, keep up the great work!

[@LCkalimba]

Hello Albert, hope your channel will do great! ☺️

[@cathytai]

I'm fascinated by the Mugan blue key kalimba from Japan. Would love to hear a couple of other tunes played on it before I decide, though.

[@KaliTheNomad]

i also have that 1st kalimba 8key mini cat / totoro shape kalimba

[@despinag.2461]

Ι haven't decided on my second kalimba yet (I have a hollow 17 keys and my mom has an 8 key like yours)...I REALLY AM TROUBLED! EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM SEEMS SO WONDERFUL😭

[@LCkalimba]

Definitely. Personally I like flat board Kalimba more 😆

[@joebaumgart1146]

Right now I only have a 17, 21 key hollow, and an 8 key acrylic on the way.

[@ruthjoy3315]

Totoro! 😍

[@EpicTyphlosionTV]

That 30-key one looks very useful, especially since it has both sharp and normal notes

[@LCkalimba]

Yes, and don't need to retune the notes for sharps like the C major 17 keys kalimba.

[@EpicTyphlosionTV]

@@LCkalimba Know of any website that sells one? I tried looking everywhere and I can't find one that big at a decent price. The only one I did find was massive, and it cost over $2,000!

[@LCkalimba]

@@EpicTyphlosionTV the 30 key one? Here’s the website: mugen.ehoh.net/secondpage.htm You can contact the seller via email of which one you want to buy. Payment will be via PayPal .

GIVEN TAKEN BY ENHYPEN HUHUHUHUHUUHU PLEASE DO A KALIMBA TUTORIAL AND C0VER

[@unboxinqit]

Seeds all the way

[@sandras.5067]

I prefer the hollow kalimba from Moozica a bit more than the Gecko. Sounds a bit better for me. The best flat Kalimba is my LingTing K17A for the moment. But soon I want to buy a flat Kalimba from Moozica........

[@cathytai]

I am actually loving my Myron 21 key flat board kalimba, but to be fair it's the only one I have played. My other kalimba is a hollow body and the first one I ever had. It was a gift which has now ignited a passion. I appreciate these videos as I decide which to try next. ☺️

[@NeptuneatDawn]

can the board kalimbas (or any kalimba) be made a good deal louder by playing them while they rest on a drum or cowbell?

[@LCkalimba]

I am not sure, never try that before.

[@Minekalimba]

Why not in Amazon ☹️☹️☹️

[@sokamori28]

I'm thinking of getting a Seeds 20 keys, which do you prefer, the solid or the hollow, in your opinion?

[@LCkalimba]

It was hard for me to choose, so I ended up getting both. 😆 For the solid one, it is easier to hold as it’s not as thick like the hollow one (twice as thick/wide than the solid one) and it’s slightly lighter. In term of sound, they are not too different, but the hollow one resonate more and you can do play wah wah effect on it. It really depends on what you like. What are thinking of? Is there one you want to get more than the other one?

[@sokamori28]

I really wanted to get the flatboard because hollow ones tend to have dead tines, but was thinking perhaps the Seeds would be different coz of how they were arranged. I ended up ordering the flatboard 😊

[@LCkalimba]

I think the sound on both solid and hollow are pretty good. I hope you will like the flat board one, would love to know what you think of it when you get it. 😁

[@HomeraisedCoffee]

Is flat board seed kalimbas louder than other kalimbas? Someone told me so but I can't tell from the video. Is it possible to play seeds kalimba in a small room for about 10 people to listen?

[@LCkalimba]

Yes, the seeds Kalimba is louder than the other ones. It probably would work if everyone is quite in the room.

[@HomeraisedCoffee]

@@LCkalimba Thanks. Gonna get one soon. ^^

[@kalimbamalaysia]

Im confius what should i choose for 20 keys seed hollow or flat?

[@LCkalimba]

Either one is good. The sound is similar on both. However, the hollow one is more heavier, but you can play wah wah effect on it. If you want to play wah wah effect, you can choose hollow one. If you don’t care about that, you can choose the flat one.

[@whwjsjhsj]

7:48 9:30 Don't mind me

[@ridaodho8806]

Is the hollow Kalimba better or the board one ?

[@LCkalimba]

I think it’s a personal preference. I like board Kalimba more as the sound is not as deep. Just keep mind, the hollow Kalimbas are more likely to have dead tines on the high notes compare to board kalimbas.

[@LCkalimba]

@@ridaodho8806 Hope you will like your Kalimba when it arrive 😆

[@ridaodho8806]

@@LCkalimba Thanks :]

[@yk1393]

How to order Mugen kalimba if I can’t read japanese? Bc I think the web is in Japanese. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@LCkalimba]

Joanne Leung The seller can speak English, you can just email ([e-mail]) about the order. He’s pretty quick at responding. Hope this helps.

[@yk1393]

LC Kalimba thank you 😊

[@MelisaSJ]

@@LCkalimba sorry for jumping in the convo, but thank you so much for this information! I’ve been wondering where can I get my hands on it 😅

[@LCkalimba]

@@MelisaSJ Glad the information is helpful for you. Hope you will like it if you do decide to get one. 😆

[@iratemimic2061]

What’s brand of second one?

[@LCkalimba]

Trscind, but I think they are no longer available on Amazon.

[@iratemimic2061]

@@LCkalimba oh ok. I ordered a gecko one

[@camatzuma]

Buying a hollow standard Kalimba for someone’s Christmas, very awkward telling them they need to grow their thumbnails more, especially since they won’t know why until a month

[@LCkalimba]

Doesn’t have to super long, 2-3 mm long is enough. Hope they will like it they they get the Kalimba. 😆

[@camatzuma]

@@LCkalimba I’ve heard about that 2-3mm thing, currently their nails are like 0.5m in their thumb. I’ve been watching a tonne of these videos so I can tell them important things to make it an amazing present and not a wall decoration lol

[@LCkalimba]

@@camatzuma Don’t cut the nail before playing it; otherwise, the sound would not sound as good. 😆

[@elpelu123]

eh... Piano...
