First: mouthpiece. Xiao's pronunciation is that the airflow hits the mouthpiece and then oscillates in the Xiao tube to form sound waves. Therefore, the quality of mouthpiece making plays a vital role in the sensitivity of flute pronunciation. Beginners' playing movements are not stereotyped, and they have not mastered the skills of adjusting their mouths, so it is not easy to play sounds. If the mouthpiece of the flute is unscientific, it will be more difficult to play the flute. So when we buy a flute, we must first check the pronunciation sensitivity of the flute. First of all, we should observe the mouthpiece of the flute by visual inspection. Those crooked and irregular mouthparts must not be used. Then we have to play it and experience its pronunciation sensitivity. You'd better find someone who can already play to test it.

Second: materials. The selection of bamboo wind instruments is very important, and the processing technology of materials is also very complicated. Bamboo should be dried, dried and straightened. Before they become the pipes we see. The innate conditions and processing technology of bamboo determine the quality of the flute. Here, let's discuss the choice of bamboo. Generally speaking, bamboo materials used in Dong Xiao include white and yellow bitter bamboo, white bamboo and fish skin purple bamboo. Dong Xiao made of Zizhu has strong crack resistance in the north. We can choose according to our hobbies and economic conditions. Generally speaking, good bamboo materials are characterized by: growing for many years, fine bamboo lines on the cross section; Heavy proportion, solid and heavy feel; The thickness is well-proportioned, and the diameter difference between the head and the tail is generally within 5 mm. In the cave flute made of purple bamboo, there should not be too few bamboo joints, and it is better to have more than seven sections and nine sections.

Third: technology. In fact, the quality of tuyere also belongs to the category of production technology, but because it is particularly important, it ranks first in front. What I'm talking about here is the manufacturing technology of sound holes. The sound hole of Xiao is the structure that controls the pitch of playing, and the accuracy of Xiao pronunciation depends largely on the quality of the sound hole making process. When you get a flute, you must check its intonation. You can play 1-5, 2-6 and other fifth scales to feel whether it is smooth and harmonious, and then play more tunes and patterns to feel the pitch carefully. If possible, you can check the pitch against the pitch calibrator and choose an instrument.

Fourth: others. Good musical instruments are rare, but there are still some if you look carefully. If you are not sure about the choice of musical instruments, you can ask someone who is good at it for help. Go to a shop with more musical instruments.

Generally, there are about 0/00 to 200 middle-grade flutes/kloc-and more than 200 professional flutes. If you want to customize a good professional flute, it needs at least 300 yuan.
