How does a $15 ocarina sound more off tune then a $10 one

It had better tone than the $10 one. The $10 one just sounds that cheap plastic toy sound where as the $15 sounds a bit more like a proper woodwind instrument (just a bit though). It's super detuned though as you said

For all of you saying the cheaper ones are good enough to learn from- take it from me that they are not. It is very difficult for a beginner to play on a poorly tuned ocarina because the breath pressure for each note becomes incredibly unpredictable. However there are plastic ocarinas at about $35 that are good to start with and have wonderful tuning and quality control.

(X) Doubt I would not trust a plastic one bro. Idk all that much about harmonics but there's no way that being plastic didn't have something to do with the garbage sound. I would even wager that the plastic ones were drilled with more precision and thus sound more precisely how they're supposed to than the hand blown ones. And they're two different kinds of plastic here, probably covering the majority of plastics used in ocarinas

I have an STL I recently got to start for practicing, as after a long research, I figured they were the best quality / price compromise you could find at lower cost. The Zelda one is a bit more expensive but you can get a "normal looking" one for cheaper. I think I got mine for 40ish bucks. Sure it won't be worth the really high quality ones but when starting an instrument, as long as the instrument "sounds right", the quality can wait until I learn to play better xD.

This actually illustrates a point I love making about cheap instruments. There's an obvious quality difference between the two but, in the hands of someone as skilled as you are, you at least make them sound passable. So much of an instrument's value lies in finding what sounds can be coaxed out of it after getting to know it. In the hands of someone like you, they still manage to sound like playable instruments, capable of being performed on.

@johnd8553 I disagree. The in-game ocarina has a clear and rich tone-colour. It was created using a digital synthesizer, so there was no need for audio compression to fit it in the game. The tuning is also entirely perfect. The cheap ocarinas in this video, on the other hand, are horribly out of tune, have pinched and leaky tone quality, and are inconsistent on the extreme ends of their range. In the clock town theme, however, the instrument used sounds more like an oboe or string instrument of some kind than an ocarina, so it has a rougher sound. Even then, it is perfectly in tune and is consistent in every register, so I feel the higher quality ocarina is a more suitable instrument in every way since it is also in tune, with clear tone, and high consistency.

I remember when I was younger I built up the courage to ask for an ~$8 ocarina. It looked just like that plastic red one! I loved it so much, even if it sounded like a recorder. I got pretty good at it! This video is making me want to get an upgrade, it’s lasted me at least 10 years now.

I have a $13 ocarina I got several years back because I was a teen and didn't have a ton of money, it wasn't _great_ but it was made of ceramic and sounded way better than the cheap ones here. It was off-key but I would compensate that by only mostly covering each hole, which would pitch-shift it

They may not sound as good as the more expensive ones but considering the price difference is 767% and 600% cheaper the cheaper ones may be worth it to most consumers. They are good but they aren't 7x better
@TechnoBoy-yl9hq Жыл бұрын
Yeah. They're at least good to get as practice to learn how to play or even to just see if you have the determination to learn, before getting a proper one. Plus unless you have a proper one you probably won't know how bad the plastic is so rather than being like "oh this is shit" when playing the plastic one you'll be thinking "oh my god I sound so much better with a proper one"
@LawfullSpook Жыл бұрын
@@TechnoBoy-yl9hq yes ofc, though I'd be quite interested to see at what price do they start to become significantly better. As in would an Ocarina at the price point of £50 be a lot closer to those at £100 or those at £10 for example, there must be a point somewhere in-between that the cost outways the performance.
@LouieOcarina Жыл бұрын
Not necessarily. There are actually ocarinas MUCH better than these and they're the same price or even cheaper. These are just not worth it for a musician actually looking to play the instrument seriously.
@LouieOcarina Жыл бұрын
@spooks-man3562 they're instruments. If you want an ocarina that will survive countless performances, and one that will be in tune with everything you play, you have to pay a decent price. I'd say good ocarinas can start from anywhere from $50-$200 USD. For example, you can play on a out of tune $50 guitar, sure, but it's not something you'd want to stick with if you're gonna learn to seriously play. It's easy for musicians to tell if they're out of tune.

I'm not a musician, nor do I have any advanced knowledge about ocarinas. But if it was me, I would keep the cheap one just for the memories. Just imagine a few years from now, when you'll have enough money to buy a great ocarina (and play it like a pro), wouldn't it be nice to have the first ever ocarina to look back on to see how much you've grown? Besides, since it's cheap, you won't get much for it, and you'll be giving away something that got you started on your journey to master the ocarina. P.S. I know it not that deep, but I'm a softy when it comes to nostalgia. So please keep it if you can.😊
