What's the best ocarina to start with? Today, we'll go over a super accessible option that sounds great and is more reliable than almost any plastic ocarina (and even some ceramics) - the Night by Noble.

In regards to the ocarina in question being tuned to A442... A lot of “soloist” melody instruments are actually tuned a few cents sharp to stick out from the rest of the instruments in the mix - it makes a solo more *bright* without being so sharp that it sounds out of tune to the average listener’s ear. A lot of accordions, for instance, are tuned to A443. Ocarinas aren’t typically used as background accompaniment in arrangements, so it makes sense that they’d be manufactured to prioritize their use for solo melodies.

The overwhelming majority of woodwinds are designed to tune A=442 at 20C. This is because symphony orchestras like to hype their tuning ever so slightly in order to compensate for the deadening effect of performing in a gigantic concert hall. I can tell you that unless you have something exotic an "A=440" recorder will blow A=442 when the head joint is fully seated on the instrument. Anyway, just my 8 cents.

Thank you! Thanks to you I bought the Night by Noble Ocarina as my first ever Ocarina (unfortunately not with your affiliated link since I live on a different part of the world) and Mr mute. Mr mute is the biggest reason why I pulled the lever. I don't have a single moment in my life where I'm in a place that can't disturb people and animals so if it wasn't for Mr mute I would never have bought this. I have wanted to learn to play an instrument, especially a flute for over a decade (I got a Dizi some years ago but it's too loud to learn). Now it's finally going to be possible to learn an instrument and I'm very excited for it! Thank you! I can't wait to sit at a park and just play what comes to mind. I want to play for my future children and for my wife. I love music and being someone who has never been able to create anything in my entire life despite the infinite number of awesome things I want to bring to reality, I lack talent, money and the ability to do it. At least with this Ocarina and Mr mute, I can finally create some parts of what I've been craving to bring forth for my entire life. Once again, thank you. I foresee a shitload of practice this week.

I guess I got lucky! Never heard of Zelda until I started looking for an ocarina, then it popped up but I didn't connect it with the instrument because it looked like some kind of cartoon. I searched for 'most portable instrument' and ocarina made the list. From there used reviews and ended up with the night by noble. Lol. I call it my kitchen instrument. I only work on it when I'm stuck in the kitchen waiting for stuff to cook. It's a lot of fun. I'm glad to find this channel. I think I'm inspired to be a little more serious about it!

I bought the Night by Noble Ocarina. I decided to buy it for a reason. My first instrument in the elementary was the flute 20 years ago. While i was playing Zelda Ocarina of Time (not coincidence lol), i didn't knew what it was a Ocarina at the first place. But when i started listening the songs it sounds like a flute but beautiful. So i decide to buy one and start over. 😊

I can hear a melody when I play but no matter what one I play it has a breathy kinda whistle tone when I play it.

So I got the Night by Noble as my first ocarina and it's pretty decent, but I noticed few things that are bugging and I wonder, if anyone else noticed: - the higher notes are quite airy and need a LOT more breath pressure, specifically from the d2 upwards, it's so loud, it's almost painful - the eb1/d#1 sounds barely different from the e1; to fix this I need to cover the double hole on my left hand - the position of the mouth piece makes holding this instrument not very comfortable, I've seen other 12-hole ocarina's where the mouth piece is more angled

I had a ceramic Zelda ocarina for the longest time. But a lot of the notes sounded airy and it obviously wasn't really meant to be played. So finally I decided to get a better one. I chose Night by Noble AC and... Wow.. just wow... I like the plastic so much more than the ceramic. Not only is it WAY more durable, but the notes are so clear, and I can achieve much higher volumes than with my ceramic one. The louder I played on my ceramic, the less clear and muddy the notes sounded. On the Night Ocarina, the louder I play the clearer the notes sound. I highly recommend this Ocarina, especially for beginners like me. It's inexpensive, durable (unlike the fragile ceramic types), and it sounds amazing. I haven't watched this video yet. I wanted to write my thoughts before I have subconscious ones planted in my brain from watching the video. That isn't a bad thing at all, but I wanted to write MY unaltered opinion before it gets altered 😋

I learned to play on a night by Noble and loved it. I dropped it and it landed on the seam and split open (VIRTUALLY indestructible). I ordered a new one and received it a few days later. Again, very pleased with my purchase. Then, I wanted to have a second one, in case I broke one, and I also wanted to keep one in my car and one at home. Ordered my third Night. I was surprised to discover that this one is much more airy than the others. So much so that I really don't play it much. My question is, is there something I can do to modify it to eliminate the airyness, or just suck it up and buy a new one? (I am considering the Focalink Bravura.) BTW Thanks for all of your great videos!

Hey andy! My ocarina journey has been a bit so far, first i wanted to get the stl oot 12 hole off of amazon, it came eventually after like 17 days or so and i got one pf those ones just like the cheap amazon ocarinas in the 15 to $25 price range (i wont get in to depth with that) then eventually after a little i decided i dont need a oot design and ordered a night by noble. in a coupl o days (delivered on my birthday in not long 😅) itll be here. However, i got one that was red and not a rubber finish (it was one of the options i could get and i know that its actually the night company) do you know if it will it still be okay and sound good?

That high "C" is actually a C sharp if my ear is don't playing tricks on me (in fact, the whole scale is almost a semitone above of the key of C). I have this same issue with mine. I have to blow ridiculously low to actually play the correct notes of the key of C. This ocarina is useless for playing along with louder instruments. However, it has a very bright tone and is really really hard to break (unlike ceramic ones) is an enjoyable ocarina to practice at home

Sorry for a reply 10 months after your comment, I just stumbled onto this video. Random scratches wouldn't be normal, but I have noticed on many of my ocarinas that there is a small scratch by every finger hole. I suspect that as part of the tuning and quality control process, the maker marks each hole after testing to make sure it's in tune.

I got my night by noble, it's pretty good on the low notes but whenever I get to the higher ones to the highest it's very airy and doesn't sound good. Now I've tried to put a bit more air whenever saying 'too' and unfortunately it does not help it gets too screachy. So sometimes I would have to modify musical notes to lower pitches whenever I'm playing a song. With that being said I've combed through several written reviews, and video reviews. Most people do like it, and a handful sound like mine or have the same complaint with high notes being airy. So it could of just been a bad copy of the night by noble, who knows. I'll be getting a non plastic one in the near future as it's pretty easy to learn the notes. Just wished it sounded better on the high pitches. And yes cleaning is always taken care of on my end. I don't let condensation build up.

This isn't my first Ocarina but I am about to go on deployment and didn't want to have my ceramic ones crushed in my seabag or something so I bought this one earlier this year.

You might be overblowing on those notes - try using gentler air pressure. With my NBN, if I overblow, the E and F don't make any sound, so lighter breath pressure on this ocarina all around can help!

im worried about the 442 hz, could this be a problem? i have someone travelling to the states and i only have one shot in getting it right because they dont sell it in my country lol with the low preassure can I play with my traditional instruments in 440? like recording stuff with a piano thats in traditional tuning?

You can reduce breath pressure to play w/ A=440 instruments, yeah. However, if you'd rather have an equally good plastic AC, the Focalink Bravura AC sold either via Songbird, Stein, or directly from Focalink is just as good quality-wise as the Night by Noble but is tuned to A=440

Being 2 cents off from standard tuning is by and large going to be imperceptible to everyone. It’s probably tuned to A442 specifically to make it subconsciously seem a little brighter in relation to A440 instruments. Also chances are that basically every instrument you play with (other than like, a glockenspiel or something) is going to be out of tune by a couple cents in one direction or another (especially a piano that might go years between tunings), so it won’t be anything that your ear isn’t already used to hearing. Long story short: buy it! It’ll be fine. :)

Yikes! I'm having a terrible time with the one I just got... I recently started playing an Alto Recorder, and other than struggling to reach with my pinky fingers, I'm doing well and making pleasant sounds. BUT my new Night by Noble is awful! I can barely get a good sound on it, and I'm wondering if I should send it back... Thoughts?

Don't give up yet - make sure you're fully covering the holes, see if using less breath pressure helps, and I'd recommend watching some videos about learning the ocarina by David Erick Ramos

With the high notes on the NBN, use less air than you think you need. That typically helps!

@@AndyCormierYT thanks for replying to my comment though when i try to play the ‘song of storms’ on the NBN the part where it requires u to play high E and high F it sounds really airy which sound terrible. To the point where i think its really a big problem rather then a not so big of a problem. I have tried using your suggested comment by using less air but it made it sound more airy how do i fix this problem? I have been struggling with that problem since i started learning the ocarina. Its a really annoying issue idk if thats how plastic ocarinas are supposed to sound like since the NBN is my first ocarina.

@@Follyful sorry about the late comment, I just commented as well not too long ago. Honestly it could of been a bad copy? Because I can play the lower notes just fine, it's when I get to the highest ones it's very airy with low or high. Usually if it's the airy notes id modify it to a lesser pitch. I'm still learning myself however will invest in a higher quality one in the near future. It's just best to use it as a learning tool, that way when you do get a better quality one you'll know how to play your favorite songs from the jump.

@@pandaaddict2756I actually found out the reason why its because of the technique i used to blow in the ocarina was wrong, normally u would think to just exhale into the ocarina but thats for some songs, songs like lost woods require u to blow into the ocarina with a tu tu tu with your mouth idk how to say it i kinda quit if im being honest

@@Follyful yeah I tried it at first with just blowing, then did it with a hard too, came out sharp not airy but screechy, if you do a low too it comes out perfect so it does require consistency. And here's the thing you always have your ocarina so whenever you want to you could always go back to it 😊

Amazon! And if it's not available in your country, there are probably other vendors (Stein/Focalink, etc) that may have great plastics with lower shipping costs

I am interested in picking up an Ocarina but the Night By Noble is about $75 Canadian which is a bit much for someone who isn't sure if they're serious about learning the instrument yet. If you were to buy an Ocarina off Amazon that isn't an OoT replica which brand would you suggest? I've heard OcarinaWind makes some ok ocarinas, as well as Techson.
