Description
This Ocarina is based on a 'Icosahedron', a geometric solid made from 20 equilateral triangles. You can design your own based on other forms, such as the dodecahedron found in the non-cuboid section of D&T Online. Smaller sizes will give high notes and large ones low notes.
Features and Applications
The length of side on the Ocarinas can be varied to experiment with different ranges. For a Soprano try between 25mm and 30mm side, Alto between 35mm and 40mm and Tenor between 45mm and 50mm. The largest you can get on an A3 sheet of card is about 65mm length of side.
The size and position of the finger holes is a matter of personal choice. You will need 8 holes to produce a full octave.
Designer
- Click on the pencil-shaped Edit icon below to show or hide variables and click inside table to alter values (scroll to see all).
- Left or Right click on the screen display or use Scroll Wheel to alter view and Left click on Zoom icon to restore (note: Zoom will be focussed around the cursor position)
- Left click on Download icon and Open with your preferred browser then print screen image from there (useful for trying ideas for text and graphics etc. but unlikely to be actual size), or Save File to create a full-size Scalable Vector Graphics (svg) file which can be loaded into LibreOffice Draw and printed, or graphics software such as Inkscape for eventual output at actual size to a Plotter/Cutter for example. See Packaging Designer User Guide for more detail.
