Sansula Kalimba
This is my original Sanusla Kalimba recorded with a pair of Beyer mics in X/Y configuration. I limited the voicing into the original. I like those limits that nature has....

The story
This is my first attempt to share instruments with the community. I’ve already downloaded lots of your contributions as I work in a studio where we have acoustics, mics and instruments,,.. I thought: why don’t you contribute to the community. So I’ve started with a simple and beautiful instrument. Limited to its original key range and with three round robins for each note.
Pd.: I’m a big fan of DecentS. It can work with Pro Tools at the studio and also in my iPad. Thanks! Hope one day it has tempo sync😊

Krisp Kalimba
I like the sound of the recordings for this but the range is a little limiting (although I completely appreciate the authenticity of only including the notes which appear in 'real life').
I therefore had a quick fiddle with the script to stretch the notes over 2 octaves.
Good samples though.Few notes with good sound
Although this pack offers few notes, the sound quality is decent. I wish you had added more controls. Having just the reverb and tone is not enough to get the variety that can be useful.
The background image looks good, but the size of the controls and their names is insufficient. I think the interface can be improved by paying attention to the detail of the controllers.
A beautiful but literally limited Kalimba
This kalimba possesses a fantastic character, one of my favourites actually, but unfortunately it has been programmed in a way that you can only access 8 notes with gaps inbetween. The actual notes are A2, C3, E3, F3, A3, B3, C4, E4, which you can argue limits you to play mainly around A minor and F major. There is also a slight white noise on the mid-attack of some samples which can be a little annoying on top of the playability limitations.
