How silent is a silent violin??? Put to the test+demo!!!!

*OPEN FOR LINKS/INFO*
So in this video, we put to the test, how loud an electric violin is when its not plugged into an amp. This is especially useful to know if you live somewhere where noise is an issue.
Just to address all the comment about a silent violin or electric violin is still 'loud' well, its a common misconception that silent/electric violins are totally silent! Im not sure why people think they will produce no sound at all unless plugged in.
Its just the nature of the instrument. There is significantly reduced sound compared to its acoustic counterpart, but if you don't want a loud violin, your only option is to look for another hobby im afraid lol...
Here is the violin I'm using:

[@sluongng]

wow this is actually greatly informative... most people would turn off thinking the request is stupid. Thank you for doing this

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

+NB i dont think it is either, and you wouldnt believe how many people as this question! I decided to put it to the test and hope this has helped folks who really limited by noise! :))

[@ericman4023]

So quite loud then! As loud as a violin with a mute. You’ve just save me some money - so thanks for this. Very informative

[@pacovl46]

You should’ve played a real violin right after the silent one to have a one on one comparison. :-)

[@lindafitak]

I was thinking of getting a silent violin but it sounds like you can still hear the violin, regardless… I’ll just practice when my husband is not trying to sleep… thank you, Alison.

[@DeadDancers]

Thanks for doing this. I was thinking of getting an electric violin + headphones, specifically so I wouldn't bother my neighbours as I practice - but nope, that sounds as loud as a regular violin. No point!

[@glynrhys68]

would be interesting with a mute on that though

[@ethanpunto9222]

it is definitely nowhere near as loud as an acoustic violin lol

[@scottadavid]

Still louder then I want to hear by a beginning violin player.

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

Sadly, the only way to get the violin quieter than this, is to not play one at all! Its just the nature of the instrument and you will not find anything lower than this volume.

[@wayneious]

@Clark Culver Hell...I'm thinking of playing the violin after 30-years away from playing because of life and circumstances...wait till you get older and take on a new goal and task and reeeeealy see how little you care what others think ;). Age sucks...but in reality...age is freedom.

[@boriskarloffjr.833]

That's the exact same model Cecilio electric violin I'm considering purchasing. I was glad to see how it looks actually being played, seeing its size and dimensions. This video helped me in my decision to buy this specific model. Thank you for making this video, and using that specific Cecilio model electric violin. :-)

[@MrInterestingthings]

Thanks so much for taking the time to make this vieo ! I'm amazed at the very many videos on here that don't treat this issue of absolute quietness . The Ultrapractice mute might be a good investment since I plan to use headphones during practice . So glad you answered this important question !!! I'm amazed that 3 videos I watched talked about every other feature! I got a very inexpensive Cecilio because I had never heard of pickups for acoustic instrument.My Klutz is a fine German instrument but it is loud I could play the Bruch concerto without a mike with a full orch . and be heard like an organ ! It seems unlike electric keyboards without strings violins with strings will be heard even if hooked up to amp and pedals .

[@hannesheinz720]

You can put a mute on the bridge it will make the tone softer and more silent!

[@leimaniax]

Thank you for the video. Useful. Idea: It'd be really useful to compare it to a normal acoustic violin. We can't really judge the electric vs acoustic sound output, because they're not in the same video. I think that's the real point for most people who are considering an electric for less-noise practice.It'd be useful to compare them in the same vid, so there's a relative point of reference.

[@Dalhax]

She is pretty clear about that. Electric or not, it does have some sound even without speakers or amplifiers. Just like an electric guitar, but a quite bit louder. However it's not *loud*. It's not the loudness makes people angry. It's just that you practice and it can be distracting when you 'misplay' melodies, but it's all about the tolerance of your environment. The TV was actually louder downstairs. So that much of noise (I think) *has to be accepted* by your neighbors. If you just start up with strings, keep your windows closed during the first year.

[@EliseMichaudimmigration]

Thank you so much for this video! I was considering buying a "silent" violin expecting it to be like an electric guitar! I will just keep using with the practice mute on my acoustic violin!

[@satinderjit4]

I thought about getting an electric one too but as much as I have read, a lot of people recommend the normal violin with a mute on.

[@roughout]

Thank you. You saved me the time and expense of a useless purchase. I'll just get out my brass mute. The problem with practicing with a mute is, I'm intimidated when I get in front of a group, without the mute, and all that sounds comes out

[@mkleng]

Exactly what I am looking for - all my questions answered - volume outside the room, and further, ultra mute, and more. Very comprehensive! 👍👍👍😊😊

[@amukelaningobeni9605]

I really thought a silent violin was really silent until you plug it with headphones or Amp. I should've watched this before purchasing a silent violin

[@samanthatheriot8879]

You make fantastic videos, so very helpful !!

[@winstonchaychel]

I was hoping it would sound phenomenal because I picked up their strings to replace stock strings on my violin. Not disappointed! 💕💖

[@simonfarrell2537]

What a useful video. I'm considering a silent violin, and this answers the very first question I asked myself. Many thanks!

[@caiovalente505]

That's the most useful video I've ever seen about silent electric violins!! That totally helped me in my purchase decision!! Thanks a lot from Brazil ;-)

[@soulvibe319]

Thanks for this and I am sold on buying one now.I didn't want to drive people crazy learning how to play.Actually going to use mine for ambient and drone music productions After hearing Kenji Williams playing in the Alex Grey World Spirit video I had to have a violin.The emotion that can be conveyed is amazing.

[@daves.9479]

In other words, it's NOT a silent violin. Not much different from a normal violin with a metal mute on the bridge. Thanks; very useful info.

[@ajitsank]

[@jenniferbrown7539]

I still think it's a bit loud. is it because of the camera? i though it would be like an electric guitar. not too loud

[@stuartkj2863]

finally! someone that does a proper demo and sound test, tq.

[@IgorKolar]

Wow, that is not silent at *no* stretch of the imagination =D

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

+Igor Kolar Silent violins are not actually silent! They are just called silent violins!

[@IgorKolar]

Clearly :D I guess I never thought about it and having never heard one unplugged assumed they were barely audible when unplugged, like el. guitars are. Thanks for the video, that was very informative. =)

[@brobrwwarrior]

Good job, I've looking at the Irin video and I've decided to get that violin. I've been learning a lot from your videos. I've admired your videos and a few other. I'm down range (Iraq) and I hope to be a great player by the time leave here. I look forward to your lessons that I viewed earlier. Lessons 1-10 and then learn how to read music. I think your doing a great job! Keep it up. You've inspired me.

[@codgerbrown]

[@spiritoutcast9087]

I feel so bad for my family, I used to practice trumpet in my family's apartment, I kid you not they would try to put a sock in it to make it more quiet, but it would tend to fly out!! xD I bet if I picked up this instrument they would be like "you hear that? That's the sound of silence" even though they could still hear it 😂

[@jacksonharvey6189]

May you please do a video comparing the volume of sound of a 'silent' to a 'normal' violin? Enjoyed your video, although a video does make it hard to really know the volume of the sound created, without a comparison. I am interested in buying a 'silent' violin to practice with, due to not wanting to disturb my neighbors with my amateur playing

[@johnathanknight]

Headphones versus speakers with company beside you is the comparison. I practice on both. The acoustic volume is immense that my nieghbour joined me with his guitar in seperate apartments, however, My electric with a mute they arent so bothered with my 3 am practice nor my room mates.

[@codex134]

Would be interesting to know how loud the soundbox is under the bridge compared to a standard violin and electric guitar. To make it very silent you need a silent bow, which is only good for learning finger positions since the bow is the other half of the violin instrument.

[@robertgwatts1858]

At siesta time I plug headphones in and use a mute. The high frequencies from the unmuted electric can be heard when practising those high positions.

[@williamstephan6573]

merci, nice video, i rely wanted to know how the song is goint out befor buy one

[@DonnaInForma]

Actually I wanted some muting like on the electric piano, were I can hear fully on my headphone, but everyone else would be spared from the torture

[@Volcanic47]

Maybe, but if its advertised as "silent" and it isn't "silent" thats false advertising.

[@reivalentina7293]

Volcanic47 you can stick headphones in it it's silent it's not like guitars they can't be called semi acoustic because they're manly electronic

[@jjtomecek1623]

Well shoot. I was wanting to buy one to take with me to school, so I can play during study hall and stuff. Oh well. The other students can move to another room if they want

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

You do make a fair point and one which I had not considered. I think however, that my amp was not as loud as it really 'would' be and in real life, the violin not plugged in is substantially less loud, but yes, elec guitars are pretty non-existant with sound when not plugged in, so compared to them, an elec violin not plugged in is as loud as a head of stampeding elephants! Im not sure how I can remake this video with better sounds - as its always hard for mics to pick up what you hear in the room at the time...

[@evil.Cupcake]

Can you put a mute on a silent violin (unplugged)? I live in an appartment and walls are kinda thin. I reeeeeally want to learn someday but like some others I'm not looking forward to neighbors complaining, haha

[@kristi9727]

Im so happy I found ur channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mccolgan09]

Probably the wrong video to post these questions on but nevertheless here I go 1) In regards to your piano books 1-3 that are currently out, will this definitely get me to the level 3 if followed correctly? 2) I can already read sheet music, should I skip a book? 3) Do the books teach you about how and when to use the three pedals? 4) When is book four coming out?

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

+Adam McColgan 1. Yes! IF done properly and correctly - I use them personally at home to teach my students. 2. Music reading comes in at book 3, but book 2 covers scales and other stuff - look in my shop at the description of them as I bullet point whats in each book. You could potentially skip book 1 and head to book 2, then always go back and get book 1 if needed. For $13, they dont break the bank :) 3. Not yet! Pedaling is VERY complicated and like vibrato should not be attempted too soon - besides there is noting you will do in the early stages that will need pedal anyway. Pedalling will come in at book 5. Please note that these books are designed for home/self teaching and they have been specifically designed and written to suit this, therefore they appeal to the masses without jumping too quickly, or teaching stupid complicated and unnecessary stuff like a lot of other online courses and books do - this is where my books differ. 4. Feb-ish next year. Book 4 itself is all done - i just need to write and compose the Song Book 4 that goes with it before i release them otherwise I will upset folks when both books come out at a discount. Any more questions, please ask :)

[@paurullan]

+The Online Piano and Violin Tutor thank you for these answers. I saw book 4 videos listed but private and had the same doubts.

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO

[@NotAverageAfro]

Thank god. If I chuck some headphones into this, or through the amp I can then stick some music on in my room with some bass and this would just be a "wtf is that noise" sound and not a "I wish he'd stop playing the effing Violin" sound

[@sarahvegter790]

Thanks for the video! I've been playing the violin for 10 years, but unfortunaly I had to quit when I went to university last year. I rent a house with four roommates, and I cannot practice at home since the walls are very thin and they will hear everything very loud and clear, even with a practice mute. I have been looking into an electric violin to reduce the noice, but I'm afraid it will still be to loud :( I will have to keep looking into other options!

[@AkiraKenshin]

thank you so much I've been looking for a video like this! definitely not quiet enough for my taste so will just buy a cello when I move back to Canada :)

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

Im afraid no electric violin (silent r not) will ever not make a sound. its a violin and violins have strings and strings vibrate when you bow on them. Vibrating strings = sound.

[@faithsviolinclasses9834]

OK.. Thank you.. Shall look through..:)

[@fap9067]

hi. I think is a good idea to start learning the notes on the violin (left hand first, plucking the notes and keeping silent untill you got most of the finger positions) then practice with the bow, so the sounds you make wont be as bad as if you first practiced bowing and playing offf-key notes from the beggining at the same time.

[@pubbiehive]

Nice profile pic

[@LCSDarkAngel2006]

Could you please explain 4 fine tuners vs one fine tuner (specifically on e-string)? Is there a cost difference between the two? I read that 4 fine tuners are more for students just starting out and one fine tuner on e-string is for more advanced players?

[@ksmith]

BTW, in Germany this melody belongs to "Morgen kommt der Weihnachtsmann" (Tomorrow comes the Christmasman [= Santa Claus]). In the U.S. it's just a normal children's song. Considering the current season, it might to be a season thing in U.K. too.

[@ghostzart]

+The Lady Is a Band It's a very old French folk song called "Ah vous dirai-je, Maman." There are probably hundreds of variants on it around Europe. Mozart alone composed 12 of them. One of the most famous in the English-speaking world is "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."

[@channelterminatedbyuser]

ghostzart Very likely French, yes. As German, who studied lots of original sources, I must agree : lots of our culture came from France. Both, the English and German language have lots of French loanwords. Even old German fractur script comes from French gothic letters. Musical harmony, chords, is an exceptional thing in human music. This also comes from France. French culture influenced German culture since the middle ages. Of course, if we look further, many cultural influences initially came from Spain and there must be lots of Arabian in this.

[@spiritoutcast9087]

The Lady Is a Band In the U.S., you are correct; it goes by "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" and its actually the same tune as what we use for the alphabet, but not many people notice it.

[@channelterminatedbyuser]

Many melodies came from France in the 1600s because French culture was highly popular. Which goes for the European continent AND for England.

my girl plays violin and I was under the stupid assumption that silent violins were actually silent... she asked santa for an electric violin this year, she might be under the wrong impression I gave her that they are silent. At any rate, they are still more quiet than the acoustic one she uses, she was more interested in the silent aspect of the violin than the actual amplification sound. Hopefully santa brings her a small amp so she can see how cool it can be to play with a speaker.

[@Snowboarderr4Life]

Is the volume of the silent violin different when you put on headphones or is just the same as unplugging it?

Hey there! I have decided that after practicing for about a year on my acoustic violin to pick up a cheaper end electric for practice. I also live in Canada and it gets really cold here, so I would prefer to lug around the electric instead of my acoustic. I have watched both videos on comparisons and then this one. I've also seen on some comments that you actually own two of the model 4 electric violins in white and black. I was thinking about picking up one of those, but I also saw that you have the other model CEVN-1NA. My question is which one of the two would you recommend. I do prefer the CEVN-4BK based on looks entirely. Do you find any noticeable differences between the two that would sway your decision? Or just find that you prefer the 4BK Thank you

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

All the cecilio electric violins are the same. the colours are different and there are 4 designs. I personally own this one in the video which i believe is style 4 in black and another in white, but cant remember what style (unless i mentioned it in the video). I went for black and white so i had one for each mood im in lol, and 2 different styles to shake things up a bit, but no reason other than I liked the style at the time. Any colour, any style - they are all the same.

Thank you for this interesting video about electric violin sound testing :) I am considering buying an electric cello, in addition to my acoustic cello. I would like to study and play it at night, without disturbing my neighbours, I suppose the principle is the same, an electric cello on which are plugged headphones might still produce sound hearable inside my house, but as long this sound is not louder to a television, it shoud be ok for my neighbours...?

ive been playing for a while, but my violin is so loud i feel bad for my neighbors, even though i use 4 clothes pins on the bridge (it works waaaay better than my mute).

My electric violin is still loud with a practice mute. I'm gonna buy a normal violin. When I boughr it I thought it would be like an electric guitar. I used to use headphonesbto play the guitar really often and I thought it would be the same with the violin.

I wish a vioin that we could put earphones in existed so that only you could practice then when you are good others can listen :(. I havent played my violin because they are loud

[@izzyoneil5170]

they do exist!!!!

I've heard the Yamaha instruments are even quieter, would it be worth it to invest in one of those if you live in apartments or dorm rooms?

+ladyeclectic remember that one doesnt buy an electric violin for how quiet it can be without being plugged in, but what it sounds like when it is plugged in, plus i doubt there will be much in it anyway as they are fairly quite regardless. This video was just for those curious to know how quiet before they invested their money. :))

Would you be able to make a tutorial for Moonlight Sonata on Violin, I know you have done it on the piano but I would really love to learn how to play it on the Violin! Thanks again for all the help!

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

+Markus “Mojo1994” Ottonen Im not sure how popular that would be, but if i get loads of requests i will do it.

[@Mmojoo94]

Just a request :P Thank you for all your help otherwise! Your greatly talented!

It's good idea to make video for test this violin without electric to check if we want low level of sound. thanks.

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

No, because they are not meant to be played not plugged in. Contrary to what people think or believe, you cant play these not plugged in/amplified, as the sound is not sufficient enough to hear yourself play and therefore learn.
