Simple exercise but should get you thinking about your outer mallet.
Double stops are 3 and 4 mallets. the line is played with sticks 4 and 2
What do you think?
I've attached an etdue and an mp3 of the etude. You should be able to here what type of tune it is and figure out what the chords are. This is an advanced lesson, so an advanced player should be able to do that.

Greetings everyone. Can folks on the forum recommend any tasty published jazz music arranged for vibes (i.e. either solo, duet, or small group)? I'm working hard at learning to voice my own 4-mallet chords, but in the meantime I really…

I gave my vibes to Christos Rafalides because he is in Greece for a tour and I thought that it's good idea to practise piano. I practised a funk chord loop in 12 keys doing stuff and this is me best shot. Anyway, I think that it's…
