The big give away could hear the key action of the metal flute, and its tone was a bit brighter, while the wooden one was darker and a little airier. You had a beautiful tone on both. The ones with accompaniment were harder, though. Here are my initial guesses: #1: B was wood #2: B was wood #3: A was wood #4: Metal #5: Wood #6: Wood #7: Metal #8: Metal Edit: Yay! it really was all in the key action and tone.
my speakers arent that good enough for me yo hear the key action but the wooden flute definitely sounds more "dirty" like how you can differentiate between a new good reed and an old grainy one
Agreed it sounds like an instrument in an old cottage somewhere and people have a good time on ( not saying he sounds bad he sounds fan fucking tastic on both)
@@InstrumentManiac i could hear the airier one too but i couldn't for the life of me tell but thats because i know nada of instrument noises based simply on material LOL
I love the Zelda tribute. Some of my favorite series growing up. Gonna have to lean more towards the wooden flute. I feel like it really shines in that medium register, and that's what I'm more acclimated towards. I think the modern flute is good for technical passages and clarity in the higher register. But I'm just a brass dude (euph/tuba), so take that for what you will haha
Hey, 7 year flute player here! This was definitely a lot harder than I thought, but I am proud to announce that I got 11/11, all of that metal flute playing has really helped me put!!!
1: B 2: B 3: A 4: Wood 5: Wood 6: Metal 7: Wood 8: Wood All of these songs are from Zelda edit: I got 4/8 lol. I'm a percussion player tho, so I'm not too disappointed. I definitely like the sound of the wood flute better
Thank you for this. I'm glad to know that my hearing isn't completely shot. The wooden flute has a slightly duller tone to it. Wonderful performance as usual and a great video idea!
yup after ten years with the metal flute, I played several models of wooden flutes, and it was love at first play. I feel like for concert level is necesary the modern boehm, but for my interests and way of playing the wooden one was just smooth like cutting butter with hot knife. I guess there is the intermediate point of the wooden head and body with the Boehm system.
A lot of modern metal flutes are played with piercing purity and auto-vibrato that can be really draining to listen to. I've really come to prefer wooden flutes in most cases these days!
@@InstrumentManiac There is this old video of an interview with Matt Molloy (irish flute) and Sir James Galway, I think there they mentioned that the Boehm modern system aims for perfection in tune and bright, while in the wooden you must try to find the right balance for intonation... What a magnificent piece of living history those wooden flutes 💖
The simple system flute have a weaker sound than the Bohem system one. The second has larger tone holes and a cylindrical bore instead of conical. Because of this it's sound has more overtones or harmonics and the sound is a little bit brighter and louder. The higher register tends to normalize between them because the notes start to depend more of the embochure and air velocity. In consequence the tone holes begin to be more irrelevant than in the low register where they do need to be large. This also happens with recorders where the high register tends to be equal in sound (not in intonation of course) between expensive and cheap models.
I'm a floutist... better get these right!! I'll type them in as I'm watching. ✅ 1: wood- B; The Legendary Hero - Legend of Zelda main theme (or Link to the Past over world theme, whichever you prefer) ✅2: wood- B; Zelda's Lullaby - Legend of Zelda (basically all of them) ✅3: wood - A; Saria's Song (the Lost Woods) - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time ❌4: wood; Song of Storms - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time ❌5: metal; Dragonroost Island - Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker ✅6: wood; Ballad of the Windfish - Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening ✅7: metal; I don't know this song ❌8: wood; Nayru's theme - Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages Hm. Not as good as I'd hoped 😆 I agree. I like wooden flutes a lot more than metal. Sadly, the only flute I own so far is a standard metal C flute... I'll get a wooden one someday! Thanks for the cool video.
My guess :( B B A Metal - Ocarina of Time Wood - Wind Waker Wood Metal Metal - Oracle of Ages I got I think all of them. I love Zelda so I definitely got it! Guessing the instrument was hard though.

Edit: I got 5 and 7 wrong. I agree that the wood seems to be softer, maybe because the texture dampens the sound waves just a little bit more than the more smooth metal? I like both, though the wood flute is my preference. There's probably some fun subtle choices that can be made based on their differences, like if one was doing a cover of "Sealed Away" from Final Fantasy V, they might pick the metal flute to emphasize the foreboding, but they might instead pick wood to showcase the quiet wonder of what mysteries there might be
I’m flute player for a long time and I play wooden flute for 25 years now but I’ve been through a very difficult surgery and my career is over. I’m waiting for my retirement. Therefore I’m looking for someone who is interested in buying my wooden flute. It’s a Cocus wood Alfred Verhoef . Same one that is played by sebastian jacot,jacques zoon ,hermann kogelenberg .thanks for sharing this
As a non-professional flautist I really hope I can tell the difference so I'm going to try the challenge! Posting before the answers are revealed! 1 - A metal B wood 2 - This one was tough.. A metal B wood your tone gets quite airy with one of the flutes and I'm pretty sure from when you played the small sample bit at the beginning it's the wood one, though this is tougher than I expected xD 3 - A metal B wood 4 - metal 5 - wood 6 - wood 7 - genuinely not sure on this one, I think wood? 8 - metal nervous to see the results! Edit - Looks like I got 3 and 7 wrong, your metal low notes are quite rich! ^^ As for my thoughts on top of your thoughts at the end, the shriller high notes on the metal flute are a little bit to do with using a silver plated flute though having a solid silver headjoint is a great starting point. Upgrade that to a gold open hole and you'll notice the same depth of sound you're probably feeling from a wooden flute, not sure the difference in price point though, I bought my flute in 2004! xD Each metal/material flute has its own color and texture when played which is why you can see orchestra/recording professionals with all 3 types silver/gold/wooden and will switch them out depending on what the song demands. I'll stop rambling now, loved this test, it was fun! :)
So we're comparing two very different flutes. Different embouchure holes, different wall thickness, different bore diameter, conical vs cylindrical, different tone hole sizes etc But the focus is on the one thing that makes the least different - the material they're made from!
Alright, here were my guesses for the instrument: ✓ B ✓ B ✓ A ✓ Metal ✓ Wood ✗ Metal ✓ Metal ✗ Wood As for the songs: ✓ TLoZ Main Theme ✓ Zelda's Lullaby ✓ Lost Woods ✓ Song of Storms ✓ Not sure, something from Wind Waker, probably _(I've never personally played it),_ maybe Dragon Roost Island? ✗ _No_ clue. ✗ Damn, this one is so familiar, but I can't put a finger on it. ✗ I have never heard this before, but _wow,_ it's beautiful. For the kind of flute, it did come down to the key action sometimes as someone else mentioned, but also certain note articulations or nuances of open holes! I tried to use the tone as well, but that just was getting too far into splitting hairs for me. At least, having a bit of experience with key and open holed winds helped me with the former. I have to agree with you that I find wood flutes to be more pleasant to listen to/play! _(I'm personally really sensitive to loud and shrill noises.)_ Honestly the differences in tone and projection appeal to me because I __love__ playing expressively. Wood just feels more natural to me because of that, especially because of the unique articulations I mentioned earlier.
Round 1 B, B, A, all Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time songs (forgot the name, Zelda's Lullaby, Lost Woods?) Round 2: Song of Storms, Wooden? Windwaker sailing song, Metal? Don't know the song name, Metal? Don't recognize the song, Wooden? Can't remember the name, Metal?
1. B (The legend of zelda a link to the past - Overworld theme) 2. A (The legend of zelda ocarina of time - Zelda's Lullaby) 3. A (The legend of zelda ocarina of time - Saria's song) 4.

1. Metal then wood 2. Metal then wood 3. Wood 4. Metal 5. Metal 6. Wood 7. Metal 8. Metal I’ve been playing the flute for 15 years. I know what the metal sounds like, and I love the wooden flute so much more. I wish I could afford a quality one.
1.B & i believe it's a zelda song but idk the name 2-3. A idk the game nor song 4-6. wood 7. metal 8. wood i noticed that the wood flute was a bit deeper in tone compared to the metal flute
That was a lot of fun! The music from Zelda is beautiful, the is a french horn solo in part of the Skyward sword that brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. The resonance of the metal flute made it pretty hard to miss but they are wonderful. Thanks
1: B 2: B 3: A 4: Metal 5: Metal 6: Metal 7: Wood 8: Metal Definitely got a lot of these wrong yeah i did haha, very cool how the tombre is fairly similar
1: B - Correct 2: B - Correct 3: B - Incorrect 4: Metal - Correct 5: Metal - Incorrect 6: Wood - Correct 7: Wood - Incorrect 8: Metal - Correct Final score: 5/8 Percent: 62.5% Grade: ~ C
This was my guess initially: Song #1: A - Metal, B - Wood ✅ Song #2: A - Metal, B - Wood ✅ Song #3: A - Wood, B - Metal ✅ Song #4: Wood ❌ Song #5: Wood ✅ Song #6: Metal ❌ Song #7: Metal ✅ Song #8: Metal ✅ Let's see how I did... 😬 not so bad I was trying to hear how you were pressing the note which causes more wood vibration and you are absolutely right Luke, the lower notes have more a woody vibration, when playing higher notes, it makes it harder to distinguish metal/wood flute.
1. B (✔️) 2. B (✔️) 3. A (✔️) 4. Metal (✔️) 5. Wood (✔️) 6. Wood (✔️) 7. Metal (✔️) 8. Wood (❌) And well, I always played metal flute, so metal flute is my life

I can tell that the wooden flute sounds warmer while the silver bodied flute is more shiny and tinny sound than a wood version. Its like your comparing white wine and red wine. Nc comparison 😍
The wooden flute is a nach Meyer type from Germany, 1850 is too early, it would be around 1880-1920. Ebony was very rarely used outside of the Baroque period because it´s prone to cracking, this wood is more likely Grenadilla, Cocus or some type of rosewood. There are many types of simple system wooden flutes that can sound very different from the one you played.
1: A* 1: B 3: A 4: Metal 5: Metal* 6: Wood 7: Wood* 8: Metal Alright, I got more than half right! I am not disappointing my middle school or high school band directors!

B B A Metal Wood Wood Wood Metal Got all of them right 🥳 Very nice warm sound on the wooden flute and sharper, clear sound on the metal flute That's just how it sounds to me.
Song 1: A (Zelda main theme) Song 2: B (Zelda's Lullaby) Song 3: A (Saria's Song) Song 4: Metal (Song of storms) Song 5: Wood (I think it's from WW, but idk the actual name) Song 6: Metal (Ballad of the Wind Fish) Song 7: Wood (Also don't know the name) Song 8: Metal Something from minish cap or skyward sword?
1 - B ❌ 2 - B ✔ 3 - A ✔ 4 - Metal ✔ 5 - Wood ✔ 6 - Wood ✔ 7 - Metal ✔ 8 - Metal ✔ 7 was mostly a guess for me. Its a very pure note. I got 1 wrong since I thought the one that sonded more in tune to me was metal. Not too bad a score since Im a clarinet player lol
Great homage to Zelda❤️! I like a good metal flute for a good solid sound and fast sharp tapering. Wooden flutes I adore. I enjoy the softer tone, a more varied sound when they contract expand and get wet. I love how they mimic the d major scale naturally and give a sense of mystic wonder. Both are just as good but I prefer wood though you'll need to oil it. Also better sustainability wise
I was feeling so confident after getting the first three right. Then, I got every song wrong except for #8. 4/8 total, so not nearly the expert you are. This was incredibly fun, and I would love to see how you could experiment with this further!
I got about a 50%, Geuss I should stick with clarinet huh? Anyways amazing vid, your the reason I wanna branch out to more than just the small amount I know (that being clarinet, great bass clarinet, alto sax, guitar (really badly), and soon I will be learning violin), thanks for the inspiration my guy!
Maybe experiment with different instruments more, and go for something that's versatile and sounds nice, then no life it and suffer though the agony until you are a god at whatever that may be
The bigger give away is due to the different mechanisms on the two instruments. If you had say, two flute from say Powell they would be much more similar but there would still be a difference.
My guesses 1. A wrong 2. B 3. B wrong 4. Metal 5. Wood 6. Metal wrong 7. Wood wrong 8. Metal I didn’t do as bad as I thought I would do. I am a drummer and didn’t think I would do the greatest and the fact that I got some of the right made me happy! Great videos! Keep it up!
1. B - Main Theme, The Legend of Zelda 2. B - Zelda's Lullaby, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 3. A - Saria's Song, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 4. Metal - Song of Storms, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 5. Wood - Dragon Roost Island, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker 6. Wood - Ballad of the Wind Fish, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening 7. Metal - yeah nah I got no clue 8. Wood - still don't know Edit: Okay so I got the first three right (except Lost Woods instead of Saria's Song, but they are basically the same). I got 4-6 perfect, which I'm happy about. I did get metal for 7, but I completely messed up 8 hahahaha.
I play the metal flute, but honestly the wooden flute sounds very nice, i'd love to play on of these one day. And I did really horeibly in the quiz, i only got these where you could hear the clicking of the flaps (i dont know if thats correct english) of the metal flute or the uneven tone of the wooden flute.
Okay so. 1: a 2: b 3: b 4: wood 5: wood 6: metal 7: wood 8: metal Edit: Well I got exactly half right. Idk whether to be proud or what. But my logic was sound I believe- I just had the features of the wood and metal ones backwards lol
My opinion on this is that the wood was a lot heavier in tone color. With guessing the wood flute I was trying to visualize the sound from your 69 instrument video where there was a whole wood flute solo. Anyways here are my guesses 1. B 2. B 3. A 4. Metal 5. Wood 6. Metal 7. Wood 7. Metal 8. Wood These videos are pretty fun to do.
I think you can always tell it in some orchestral pieces when they play high-pitched tones approaching the piccolo range. Metal flutes seem to handle this more gracefully...
I play the flute and recorder, but my flute teacher showed me her Irish flute on the third lesson so I understood the tone and difficulties a bit better which helped. I wish say that the last one was REALLY hard, to the point that I’m not sure what I said once I checked the memo lol. But I got the others all correct
You can definitely tell which is metal they both sound beautiful in there own way but the metal one is more idk how to put it. Resonant? Its more echoey
mostly just here to guess the video game songs, I couldn't even tell unless it was visual from the beginning. 1. Hyrule Legend of Zelda series...B is wooden? 2.Zelda's lullaby, also Zelda...A is wooden. 3.Lost Woods. Zelda, again. B wooden 4.Windmill/Song of Storms, Majora's Mask/Ocarina of Time 5. Dragon Roost Island, Wind Waker 6.It's beautiful. First one I don't recognize. Probably Zelda I guess lol 7.Link to the Past...yup 8.Maybe it's Spirit Tracks or something else I never played. (IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE I HAVEN'T PLAYED ENTIRELY LMAO) Also I do LIKE the wooden flute, but you were saying about open holes...aren't there open hole metal flutes? Wood did sound better to me tho. Thanka you for this
I wasn't writing them down because I was eating, but I got either all of them correct or all-but-one. The metal flute just has a clearer high-end, and the wooden one has a slightly slower attack. That's the "signature" I was using anyway. It was definitely more similar in a final mix, but the wooden one still has a slightly rounder warmer tone.
1. B TLOZ main theme 2. B ? (i know its from zelda but i dont know which) 3. A TLOZ OOT Korok forest 4. Wood TLOZ OOT Saria's song 5. Metal ? 6. Wood TLOZ Link's awakening 7. Wood ? 8. Metal ?
I'm a flutist and was able to guess each instrument correctly, so pretty happy about that. I'm not a gamer, so I didn't know any of the titles, oh well. I would say the wood flute has a slightly softer, earthy sound where the concert C is brighter and more linear. Either way, your developed tone gave performances that made them sound enjoyable.
Song 1 The Legend of Zelda Main Theme 1st metal 2nd wood Song 2 Zelda's Lullaby 1st metal 2nd wood Song 3 Sarabi's Song 1st wood 2nd netal Song 4 (Favorite) Song of Storms Metal Flute Song 5 Dragon Roost Island Wood Flute Song 6 Ballad of the Windfish Wood Flute tho Song 7 Seal of 7 Maidens Metal Flute Song 8 Nayru's Song metal flute My opinion is that the Wood Flute is more relaxed and peaceful whereas it's grandson or counterpart is more energetic
How I told the difference is because the wood sounds reedy and has a scuffle/softness/clothlike sound like anything rubbed across wood not just wind. The metal sounds more like a hard substance than something that is porous and the vibration seems more intense and consistent. I still got 6 and 7 wrong though.
Song 1: B - NES LoZ, Intro Song Song 2: B - LoZ Ocarina of Time, Zelda's Lullaby Song 3: A - LoZ, Lost Woods Song 4: Wood - LoZ Ocarina of Time, Song of Storms Song 5: Metal - No Clue Song 6: Metal - No Clue Song 7: Wood - No Clue Song 8: Metal - No Clue again rip

Edit: Yay! it really was all in the key action and tone.
Good work Rob! I should probably invest in a quieter flute 😅🤣

I used to play flute when I was younger, I really loved it but gave it up a couple years in... I regret that now, I really liked that instrument!
The good thing is that you can pick it up again when you feel like it.
The simple system flute have a weaker sound than the Bohem system one. The second has larger tone holes and a cylindrical bore instead of conical. Because of this it's sound has more overtones or harmonics and the sound is a little bit brighter and louder.
The higher register tends to normalize between them because the notes start to depend more of the embochure and air velocity. In consequence the tone holes begin to be more irrelevant than in the low register where they do need to be large. This also happens with recorders where the high register tends to be equal in sound (not in intonation of course) between expensive and cheap models.
coming thru with the physics lesson! Very interesting 👏
(edit: changed some things that were incorrectly translated. English is not my main language and this vocabulary had a lot of technicalities)
I'm a floutist... better get these right!! I'll type them in as I'm watching.
✅ 1: wood- B; The Legendary Hero - Legend of Zelda main theme (or Link to the Past over world theme, whichever you prefer)
✅2: wood- B; Zelda's Lullaby - Legend of Zelda (basically all of them)

I got I think all of them. I love Zelda so I definitely got it! Guessing the instrument was hard though.

2. B (some Zelda song from OoT, not sure which)
3. A (OoT Forest theme)
4. Metal (OoT Song of Storms)
5. Metal (Spirit Tracks?)
6. Wood (?)
7. Wood (?)
8. Metal (?)
Edit:
I got 5 and 7 wrong. I agree that the wood seems to be softer, maybe because the texture dampens the sound waves just a little bit more than the more smooth metal? I like both, though the wood flute is my preference. There's probably some fun subtle choices that can be made based on their differences, like if one was doing a cover of "Sealed Away" from Final Fantasy V, they might pick the metal flute to emphasize the foreboding, but they might instead pick wood to showcase the quiet wonder of what mysteries there might be
great analysis! different tools for different situations 😊
over youtube its difficult enough to make out the difference between them. The wood has a nice sound. 👌 great video 2x👍
Most people prolly look at the answers
Ur almost at 100k! Congrats!!!
thanks! 🥳
The background music is the lick with 91 instruments.
Amazing game luke!
I’m flute player for a long time and I play wooden flute for 25 years now but I’ve been through a very difficult surgery and my career is over. I’m waiting for my retirement. Therefore I’m looking for someone who is interested in buying my wooden flute. It’s a Cocus wood Alfred Verhoef . Same one that is played by sebastian jacot,jacques zoon ,hermann kogelenberg .thanks for sharing this
As a non-professional flautist I really hope I can tell the difference so I'm going to try the challenge! Posting before the answers are revealed!
1 - A metal B wood
2 - This one was tough.. A metal B wood
your tone gets quite airy with one of the flutes and I'm pretty sure from when you played the small sample bit at the beginning it's the wood one, though this is tougher than I expected xD
3 - A metal B wood
4 - metal
5 - wood
6 - wood
7 - genuinely not sure on this one, I think wood?
8 - metal
nervous to see the results!
Edit - Looks like I got 3 and 7 wrong, your metal low notes are quite rich! ^^
As for my thoughts on top of your thoughts at the end, the shriller high notes on the metal flute are a little bit to do with using a silver plated flute though having a solid silver headjoint is a great starting point. Upgrade that to a gold open hole and you'll notice the same depth of sound you're probably feeling from a wooden flute, not sure the difference in price point though, I bought my flute in 2004! xD Each metal/material flute has its own color and texture when played which is why you can see orchestra/recording professionals with all 3 types silver/gold/wooden and will switch them out depending on what the song demands.

As for the songs:
✓ TLoZ Main Theme
✓ Zelda's Lullaby

✓ Not sure, something from Wind Waker, probably _(I've never personally played it),_ maybe Dragon Roost Island?
✗ _No_ clue.
✗ Damn, this one is so familiar, but I can't put a finger on it.
✗ I have never heard this before, but _wow,_ it's beautiful.
For the kind of flute, it did come down to the key action sometimes as someone else mentioned, but also certain note articulations or nuances of open holes! I tried to use the tone as well, but that just was getting too far into splitting hairs for me. At least, having a bit of experience with key and open holed winds helped me with the former.
I have to agree with you that I find wood flutes to be more pleasant to listen to/play! _(I'm personally really sensitive to loud and shrill noises.)_ Honestly the differences in tone and projection appeal to me because I __love__ playing expressively. Wood just feels more natural to me because of that, especially because of the unique articulations I mentioned earlier.

I’ve been playing the flute for 15 years. I know what the metal sounds like, and I love the wooden flute so much more. I wish I could afford a quality one.
I got so distracted by the awesome Zelda music that I completely forgot the challenge in its entirety…
completely acceptable 👏👏
I actually tried but it was difficult so I just started to enjoy the songs
Congrats on 100K btw!!!! You deserve it!!

i noticed that the wood flute was a bit deeper in tone compared to the metal flute
100k! I’m so happy for you!
That was a lot of fun! The music from Zelda is beautiful, the is a french horn solo in part of the Skyward sword that brings tears to my eyes when I hear it. The resonance of the metal flute made it pretty hard to miss but they are wonderful. Thanks
Happy 100k dude!!!

Let's see how I did... 😬 not so bad
I was trying to hear how you were pressing the note which causes more wood vibration and you are absolutely right Luke, the lower notes have more a woody vibration, when playing higher notes, it makes it harder to distinguish metal/wood flute.
great job!
Congrats on 100,000 subscribers, Luke!

Yoooooooooooo so close to 100k subs!!!
I can tell that the wooden flute sounds warmer while the silver bodied flute is more shiny and tinny sound than a wood version.
Its like your comparing white wine and red wine. Nc comparison 😍
The wooden flute is a nach Meyer type from Germany, 1850 is too early, it would be around 1880-1920. Ebony was very rarely used outside of the Baroque period because it´s prone to cracking, this wood is more likely Grenadilla, Cocus or some type of rosewood. There are many types of simple system wooden flutes that can sound very different from the one you played.

B B A metal wood metal wood wood? I’ve played for five years and you’re making me want a wooden flute ❤
okay so you have done this with a clarinet and a flute, whats next? saxophone, bassoon, oboe?
🎷👀
Great homage to Zelda❤️! I like a good metal flute for a good solid sound and fast sharp tapering. Wooden flutes I adore. I enjoy the softer tone, a more varied sound when they contract expand and get wet. I love how they mimic the d major scale naturally and give a sense of mystic wonder. Both are just as good but I prefer wood though you'll need to oil it. Also better sustainability wise
I was feeling so confident after getting the first three right. Then, I got every song wrong except for #8. 4/8 total, so not nearly the expert you are.
This was incredibly fun, and I would love to see how you could experiment with this further!
I got about a 50%, Geuss I should stick with clarinet huh? Anyways amazing vid, your the reason I wanna branch out to more than just the small amount I know (that being clarinet, great bass clarinet, alto sax, guitar (really badly), and soon I will be learning violin), thanks for the inspiration my guy!
Maybe experiment with different instruments more, and go for something that's versatile and sounds nice, then no life it and suffer though the agony until you are a god at whatever that may be
I tried to do the guessing activity but it wouldn't let me pause and type so here's a comment just for the algorithm's sake. Good luck dude 😎
bless 🙏🙏
The bigger give away is due to the different mechanisms on the two instruments. If you had say, two flute from say Powell they would be much more similar but there would still be a difference.
My guesses
1. A wrong
2. B
3. B wrong
4. Metal
5. Wood
6. Metal wrong
7. Wood wrong
8. Metal
I didn’t do as bad as I thought I would do. I am a drummer and didn’t think I would do the greatest and the fact that I got some of the right made me happy! Great videos! Keep it up!
1. B - Main Theme, The Legend of Zelda
2. B - Zelda's Lullaby, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
3. A - Saria's Song, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
4. Metal - Song of Storms, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
5. Wood - Dragon Roost Island, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
6. Wood - Ballad of the Wind Fish, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
7. Metal - yeah nah I got no clue
8. Wood - still don't know
Edit: Okay so I got the first three right (except Lost Woods instead of Saria's Song, but they are basically the same). I got 4-6 perfect, which I'm happy about. I did get metal for 7, but I completely messed up 8 hahahaha.
I play the metal flute, but honestly the wooden flute sounds very nice, i'd love to play on of these one day. And I did really horeibly in the quiz, i only got these where you could hear the clicking of the flaps (i dont know if thats correct english) of the metal flute or the uneven tone of the wooden flute.
a good way for this is the metal one you can hear way more mechanisms so you can tell which one is metal.
Oh, wood is the best.
It’d be cool to have a section of wood flutes in an orchestra with one or two metal ones for color.

Edit: Well I got exactly half right. Idk whether to be proud or what. But my logic was sound I believe- I just had the features of the wood and metal ones backwards lol
The sound of the metal flute’s keys closing kind of gave it away. Other than that, fun video!
My opinion on this is that the wood was a lot heavier in tone color. With guessing the wood flute I was trying to visualize the sound from your 69 instrument video where there was a whole wood flute solo. Anyways here are my guesses

i really enjoyed this video because all the songs were from zelda games the best game franchise imo ❤️❤️❤️
I think you can always tell it in some orchestral pieces when they play high-pitched tones approaching the piccolo range. Metal flutes seem to handle this more gracefully...

Asked myself if it sounded like a recorder.

I play the flute and recorder, but my flute teacher showed me her Irish flute on the third lesson so I understood the tone and difficulties a bit better which helped.
I wish say that the last one was REALLY hard, to the point that I’m not sure what I said once I checked the memo lol. But I got the others all correct

like i thank you for inspiring to learn the flute because like you got so good at flute then (i'm still wanting to) play all the instruments like you
lol i wasn't even close... about 50/50 on metal v wood. Got most of the songs though! I prefer whichever is easier to maintain!

You can definitely tell which is metal they both sound beautiful in there own way but the metal one is more idk how to put it. Resonant? Its more echoey
mostly just here to guess the video game songs, I couldn't even tell unless it was visual from the beginning.
1. Hyrule Legend of Zelda series...B is wooden?
2.Zelda's lullaby, also Zelda...A is wooden.
3.Lost Woods. Zelda, again. B wooden
4.Windmill/Song of Storms, Majora's Mask/Ocarina of Time
5. Dragon Roost Island, Wind Waker
6.It's beautiful. First one I don't recognize. Probably Zelda I guess lol
7.Link to the Past...yup
8.Maybe it's Spirit Tracks or something else I never played. (IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE I HAVEN'T PLAYED ENTIRELY LMAO)
Also I do LIKE the wooden flute, but you were saying about open holes...aren't there open hole metal flutes? Wood did sound better to me tho. Thanka you for this
I wasn't writing them down because I was eating, but I got either all of them correct or all-but-one. The metal flute just has a clearer high-end, and the wooden one has a slightly slower attack. That's the "signature" I was using anyway. It was definitely more similar in a final mix, but the wooden one still has a slightly rounder warmer tone.
1. B TLOZ main theme
2. B ? (i know its from zelda but i dont know which)
3. A TLOZ OOT Korok forest
4. Wood TLOZ OOT Saria's song
5. Metal ?
6. Wood TLOZ Link's awakening
7. Wood ?
8. Metal ?

Edit: 6/8 not bad for only two years of playing the metal flute!
I'm a flutist and was able to guess each instrument correctly, so pretty happy about that. I'm not a gamer, so I didn't know any of the titles, oh well. I would say the wood flute has a slightly softer, earthy sound where the concert C is brighter and more linear. Either way, your developed tone gave performances that made them sound enjoyable.
So glad you chose the links awakening wind fish song

Song 4 (Favorite) Song of Storms Metal Flute
Song 5 Dragon Roost Island Wood Flute
Song 6 Ballad of the Windfish Wood Flute tho
Song 7 Seal of 7 Maidens Metal Flute
Song 8 Nayru's Song metal flute
My opinion is that the Wood Flute is more relaxed and peaceful whereas it's grandson or counterpart is more energetic
How I told the difference is because the wood sounds reedy and has a scuffle/softness/clothlike sound like anything rubbed across wood not just wind. The metal sounds more like a hard substance than something that is porous and the vibration seems more intense and consistent. I still got 6 and 7 wrong though.
