    I got my ocarina at a convention so I'm now 99% sure it was meant for display/cosplay. It's get two extra holes in the sides to feed thread through and I hoped those wouldn't affect the side, but it really does.

      Aaaah so that's what those holes are! I was thinking why the higher notes are such a struggle. The lower ones sound fine however, but I guess I'll have to try a proper one instead :D

    When I started out playing the ocarina, I couldn't figure out why I couldn't play the ocarina tabs I found online right. It turns out I bought a South American ocarina (because I didn't know the difference between different 4-hole types) and I had to buy my self another one. Luckily I scored and got a nice ocarina from E-bay for $15. I have quite a few nice ocarinas by now, but I definitely didn't start out well.

    I just got an ocarina for christmas, and it seems to be one of those on amazon. It doesn't really play well. It seems to be out of tune. I got it as a gift, and I don't know what to do. I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings by saying it isn't good, but i really want to get a better ocarina because this one was my first.

    do resin and ceramic ocarina sound different?

    • @Aacck
      @Aacck Рік тому

      It would depend on the maker. A lot of cheaper plastic ocarinas are no good, but if a plastic ocarina comes from a good, known brand like Noble or Focalink they can be good. I think one of the biggest differences with plastic and ceramic ocarinas is that many ceramic ones are better at handling high notes.

      Same! So I got one from Temu, it's from China if I'm not wrong. It's not too expensive but a bit risky cause some ocarinas from there are great but some.. Well some are actually ment for Display.
      Mine looks like "the popular Amazon ocarina" but it's not from Amazon and maybe that's why it's great.
