What’s the purpose of a dimo, can I do without it

[@EightTonesMusic]

It is the part that produces the unique sound of a Dizi. If you replace with a scorch tape, it will sound like a broken recorder.

@@EightTonesMusicWill it make any sound if you don't apply anything?

[@EightTonesMusic]

@@Ittybittyguy it won't make sound if there's nothing there. You can put a scotch tape if you do not have a dimo

The Dimo gives the characteristic "sharp edge" to the sound of the Chinese Dizi. It has to be adjusted just right, not too loose, not too tight. If it's too loose, the sound will be fuzzy. If it's too tight, you won't get the sharp edge in the sound. It's definitely worth putting on, if you have a Chinese Dizi.
