So yeah I just bought a highly-regarded bright yellow plastic alto ocarina :D

...just on principle, I'm not gonna play any Zelda music :p

...okay maybe some stuff from BOTW if it transcribes okay.

Frustrating is that the manufacturer sells two VERY similar models, and they're both well-regarded, but the sound sample videos from the retailer are recorded in two totally different environments so I can't actually compare the sound, or find much online directly comparing them

...I ended up getting the one I liked the color of more.

aaaand now I need to make sure I actually practice.
