Description
The Sansula belongs to the family of the Kalimba and can be played just as easily. The instrument, with its patented suspended mounting of the resonating block, is an innovation entirely of our own design.
Since its launching in 2001, the Sansula has quickly become a bestseller and found thousands of friends at home and abroad.
The special feature of the Sansula is its unbelievable sound. The oval frame of laminated beechwood is fitted with a membrane which, together with the resonating block, gives an easily-produced and prolonged, soft tone.
---- Now at last a realistic simulation for the iPad is available This enables the user to try out new tunings. For every scale there are many different options to arrange the position of the relevant
tones on the instrument. With the APP the tones can thus be arranged in such a way that smooth playing with both thumbs is facilitated.

Ratings and Reviews
Closest to the real thing I’ve heard
There’s no noticeable lag and sounds very natural. I just wish it would work In tandem with Garage Band as a midi import keyboard. At present I play it through speakers and mic it in as real time instrument.
Thank you
When a developer blesses you with a useful and well built instrument for free, all you can do is give thanks. I’ve always enjoyed playing the Kalimba, or thumb piano as I grew up thinking of it. I first heard a Kalimba on a King Crimson album and loved the instrument ever since.
The greatness here, besides that it was free, is the ability to tune each tine. A good exercise is to think of logical ways to tune the instrument. It will help you think creatively. And be sure to record your creation once tuned and performed.
Thanks again to the developer! The community really does appreciate the gesture.
Amazing
As a professional film composer, I’ve used my Sansula in many cues and compositions. It always brings immediate life to the track. This is a fantastic tool and shockingly sounds very close to the real one. Amazing you can instantly change tuning and still be high quality (not easy to change tuning on the real one). The only drawbacks I’ve found so far is being unable to mute a note ringing on the app.
I hope they make and sample their other models like the B17 kalimba
