    Wow! Thank you so much, I’m looking into getting a Kalimba since it’s such a calming and cute instrument but I didn’t understand how to tune the keys that have the dots on it, I couldn’t find anywhere that said how but I found this! Your videos are calming and easy to understand, your cat is so cute too! I’m definitely adding this into my Kalimba playlist so I can rewatch it for when I get my Kalimba!

    Is it possible to set a goal for which note you want? It shows you if they key you're playing is tuned well to a certain note, but if that's not the note you want, there isn't a lot of direction? I keep trying to tune an E and the app just tells me it's a great B.

    I have a very stupid question I guess, but do you need to tune it differently for every song? I'm kinda confused bcuz kalimba, for example, doesn't have sharps and flats(?)
    Sorry I'm just piano/guitar player😅

    • @SamSalvador
      @SamSalvador  4 роки тому +1

      Most of the kalimba tabs on my channel is using the Key of C that means it doesn't require you to tune your kalimba. But other arrangements require you to. Some songs you can't do on the Kalimba because of the sharps and flats.
