Focalink Forte Triple AC


WWW
« on: January 05, 2010, 11:58:22 PM »

Main site (English): http://focalink.com.tw/

Alternate site (Chinese): http://fypottery.com/

Focalink produces a variety of pendants and transverse Ocarinas which are Type 2 (Rising Breath).

Airflow Style: Type 2 (Rising Breath)
Subhole Style: Taiwanese (One on each side.)

Quote from: Focalink's Website
The ocarina is a beautiful instrument which in the past has been limited in range, thus restricting the number of songs that could be played. Development of multi-tubed ocarinas solved this limitation, but also created new problems in harmonizing volume and airflow.

With considerable time and dedication, the Focalink International Limited research and development team perfected precise manufacturing techniques. In addition to expanding the ocarina's range, rigorous testing during development and stringent quality controls during production opened a new world in ocarina performance. These improvements include better tone, more consistent volume and smoother phrasing. These innovations have made Focalink the ocarina of choice for many renowned ocarinists.

Focalink, being a leader in international ocarina manufacturing, presents high quality products with individualized customization. Our professional team is open to a customer's every request.

Focalink pioneers a new era in exploring the possibilities of multi-tubed ocarinas.

Thats great! Grin

Something different about his Doubles compared to any other, is the double hole for F#, instead of a single hole.

I'm sure you'll be pleased with this Ocarina.  Cheesy

Zack has one of the best customer services I have ever known!

After owning my Focalink Double AC ocarina for about a month now, I can say that I love it.

I did have a bit of trouble with the double hole at the beginning. I kept unintentionally uncovering one of them.
But after a bit of practice I got used to it.
Then again I don't seem to be the only one who had that problem.  Tongue

They've got thereself a returning costumer that's for sure.   Wink

I am way too excited to wait for Zack's reply.... but, I asked him if the double soprano G comes in the Forte design!  As far as I can tell the Forte is the newer line and is slowly working its way onto the market.  On Focalinks site they have the different sets, the two sets of 4 and the one 7 piece set.  The two standard sets (7 piece and one set of 4) say in the description that they are available for individual sale, however the Forte set does not.....
I am just anxious to see what he says....
Does anyone know by chance?

*Ding*(just received his reply)  Zack says: "Sorry that I have no plan to upgrade SG Double to Forte edition."

Dang!  maybe someday, however, I am still going to get one!

But, I am excited to see what more becomes of the Forte design!

Well... I've been looking for a DAC Oc, but I'm not sure about a Focalink or a Noble (Old Debate)... What can you say I should be looking on an Oc that only Focalink can give me?

I think that's a good question to differentiate these 2 Ocs... Cheesy

god there isnt enough space to tell you how amazing focalink is i mean not only are their products amazing but their customer service and shipping is also amazing.  majority of my ocarinas are focalinks from my 12 hole alto C, my 12 hole soprano C and G, my Teardrop pendant, and my Double soprano G
i wish i would have bought their Double C but for some dumb reason i bought mine off STL xD i mean STL is fine but i wasnt thinking because i would much rather have the Focalink Double C
