Every time I go to the website to buy one it says there’s a problem with the server, anyone else having this issue? It’s been like this for me for 2 weeks

HAHAHA thank you so much!!!! ❤️

[@dougbeacon9760]

She's amazing!!

It often seems like the names of the people who inspire his videos get their names left out.....

[@isweartofuckinggod]

I first learned about this instrument from her video!

[@ApolloMclaren]

This really doesn’t seem worth the price. Theyre finally restocking over a year later and haven’t changed anything including the $200 price tag. I feel like i could easily diy something cheaper cooler and more unique to my style. Also theres so much other better gear and better sounding digital kalimbas you could get for that price!

[@lottiecanto1]

Well damn!! looks like i'm going to have to modify one of mine now too, i love it! and the jam at the end is *chefs kiss*. for anyone wondering when they'll be back in stock, i'm building more right now which should be on sale next week. i'm trying to do a new batch every month :)

[@Nobddy]

Awesome. Looks really fun

[@jaderene]

@Lottie Canto Awesome thank you so much I’ve been going to the website, every other day, just to see if it’s back in stock lol 😂 your instruments are a major inspiration to me❤️

[@klaus2506]

2 piezos on either side would be amazing for a stereo effect.

[@abandonedanthracite5852]

Honestly for how cheap they are its like why wouldn't they have two? You buy this instrument then down the road you buy the new better one with two piezos lol. Its the apple technique.

[@emiloguechoons9030]

Tbh based on the internals it looks like something that should cost £80 max

[@ruslanr.6171]

Kalimba with built in mic - 18$ (incl shipping) + any pedal(s) = could be as cheap\expensive and as functional as you like.

[@RolieKloeOlie]

The effects remind me of my polyphonic whale

[@JoelKirchartz]

How do you feel about flashing EPROM chips? Looks like you can easily swap out their 8 programs for some of your own, maybe even hack in a switch to expose the 8 default sounds on the main chip?

[@beaticulous]

Needs more metal zone.

[@allanwhittick2930]

Yes I want to see this

[@swarajya.55]

Would love to hear a cover of Radiohead's "Everything In It's Right Place" on this.

"Perfect for plugging in and not knowing what you're doing" is my kind of instrument.

[@Decoy303]

New batch preorders on their website starting this coming Monday. You're welcome 😊

[@slothandturtle8036]

Since they are pretty expensive and sold out anyway, we need Simon or Sam (LookMumNoComputer) to do a tutorial on how to build one ourselves 😬🙏🏻

[@SPLENDIDZEN]

Thumbs Up#777!!!... Any prize?... Laughs!...

[@StrayMedicine]

This is a genius idea for a product. I have an electric kalimba hooked up to a kp3, but the portability of this is awesome af. Too bad these are sold out, maybe I can get some help from a friend to essentially make the same thing.

Your dreamy sonic creation relaxed me after a busy day at work - thank you Simon!

[@calebclunie4001]

I do have an effect in Ableton, called "Laundry" that makes it sound like music is in a dryer. Mental Laundry? Maybe, with Static Cling? Mental Dotted Eighth Note Simple Delay? It's why we leave notes, after all, for retrieval after a delay.

Are you sponsored by the maker of this Kalimba to advertise it?

[@amyshaw893]

I have some of those days too, when my mental trousers shrink in my mental washing machine

[@StopFear]

I don’t know man. At first it seems kind of “cool” because there are all those sound effects. But these effects sound very annoying and pointless pretty quick. I guess someone could argue that kalimba can become annoying even without the effects, but I think a regular wooden acoustic kalimba has more depth and a clearer sound

[@BadWallaby]

Too bad im color blind lol does it come in monochrome or Deutaneropia? lol

[@stacybigfoot4801]

is this Varg's new channel?

[@isweartofuckinggod]

Who is Varg?

[@iamsushi1056]

no, this is Simon the Magpie. He's been at it for a while.

[@NicStage]

The high pitch sound is because you're slowing the sample rate. So as audio with frequencies higher than half the sample rate enter the effect, they're coming out the other end in funky ways that don't relate logically to how they came in. (I think. Maybe this isn't DSP. Then it's some other reason). Interesting anyway!

[@iamsushi1056]

this is indeed DSP. It's the same chip that drives a lot of guitar multi-effects pedalboards, although there's usually a lot of them in those.

[@mthao1832]

Oh and you forgot to boost it with a tube screamer lol

Expression input for pitch might be cool on this one. So you could use a pedal and keep both hands on the thingy.

Hi, I'm fascinated by the modding he is doing in this video the skillset behind it, but this is all beyond my knowledge. This is definitely something I would love to learn about and become skilled into but I don't even know how I should call the different skills involved in this so I can make researches as to how I might go about learning the involved crafts. Can someone guide me with some keywords and maybe a short explanation of what one would need to learn and become skilled into to be able to mod electronics and musical instruments like this all by oneself?

[@localhost4460]

Aaaannnddd: they're sold out.

[@NDahlonline]

kalimba works with a guitar pickup, why would they use a mic?

[@knotchbass]

The instrument and your shirt are making me feel like I am on a LSD trip.

[@DanFingermanOctopus]

This is very cool Simon, the mods make it extremely usable in a lot of contexts Well done :)

[@althejazzman]

Not convinced. Why design it with cryptic colours where you have to remember what effect they relate to? Also the pickup being so weak on the outer notes is disappointing. Looks pretty. That's about it.

[@Decoy303]

This connected to a Microcosm can get super crazy.

[@timothyverbist5795]

A Kalimba with an effects pedal for 200 usd. Pass

[@sheepkillindog]

Still meh. I have a decent piezo I can put into anything then run it into any effect pedal. Way more versatile and still cheaper. Just surprising that he’s highlighting this product after making videos where he builds kalimbas. I guess it’s decent content but just not feeling this product. For that price you can grab a used novation circuit or older groovebox and get way more mileage. 😋
