4-octaves Chromatic Kalimba

4-octaves Chromatic Kalimba

This largest chromatic kalimba that I build.

  • 49 tones
  • 4 octaves range from C2 to C6
  • size: 67 x 42 x 20 cm
  • weight 12 kg
  • Two piezo pickup systems, each with their own output

With the lower tones going down to C2, the overtones of the bass notes become more noticeable. For the lowest 18 notes, I tune the overtones to 2 octaves and a 5th. That way these overtones correspond to the highest tones of the instrument, and this provides a rich and athmospheric sound.
