![]() ![]() If you can't get a nice tone at all - send that sucker back. It's a nice stream of air like you're building an air column from your gut all the way to the ocarina. You may want to make sure you're blowing properly and try play "G" with a "tu tu tu" kind of tonguing - making sure you're properly covering the holes. It's an amazing ocarina that is considered by many (including me) better than most ceramic ocarinas in that price range. If I were you, I'd return it and get a Night by Noble plastic. Some notes may sound nice and others not, or it may slowly drift out of tune or have a jagged breath slope. They can be just good enough to seem ok, but really really frustrate new players. Amazon reviews aren't really trustworthy. They also sell some consistently bad ocarinas. Sometimes it's a good ocarina, sometimes not. Where did you get your ocarina? How much was it? Is it from Amazon and looks like the Ocarina of Time? If so, it's likely the instrument. It could be in A445 (some Noble ocarinas and other ocarinas from Korea are tuned to this apparently), so that could be it as well. Playing experience makes a big difference and it isn't as fun for some to hear the whooshy sound.įinally, you could have an instrument tuned to a different A than your tuner. There are also instruments that sound very windy to the player, but don't sound as windy to people just a few feed away. It's hard to know whether or not without knowing the model.įinally, there are some techniques that make the tone less windy. Some ocarinas have a more textured sound by design. It also could be the nature of the instrument itself and whether it is designed with sensibilities that align with your expectations. The shorthand way is to provide detail about the ocarina itself and then more experienced people can make a general determination of likelihood that it's the ocarina.Īnother way is to have a known consistently good ocarina and compare it - like comparing a good plastic ocarina (Night by Noble, STL, Focalink, Odamin, Zin to name a few) to the ocarina you have.
