The similarities outweigh the differences.

A bit of both, I presume. I was not at all used to them, because I didn't like them, so I didn't play them. That said, more expensive flutes do have better everything, including tuning, than inexpensive flutes.Eivind wrote:And thanks, Jessie, for the soundclips.
I hope it's OK for me to ask a question: One can't help but notice that the Seery clip is somewhat out of tune , and the M&E comes second to that. So now I wonder, is this somehow because they are Polymer flutes, slightly cheap ("inexpensive") flutes or just because they are the two you were least used to at the moment?
Not to argue Stuart, but having played the Sweetheart flute in question, I have to tell you that it's unusually good....Freakishly good in fact - not at all like any of the Sweetheart flutes I've tried in the past.sturob wrote:You can hear it, Jessie. Actually, not to turn this thread into something it's not. . . but I'm going to.
This kinda proves my point about comparisons. The Olwell was probably the best flute in the bunch of 4 Jessie played for comparison. However, and arguably, the best recording is that of the Sweetheart. That's why I asked the admittedly-leading question, if she were most accustomed to the Sweetheart.
Interesting, though!
