Just a note: if you use cellophane tape rather than dimo membrane you won't get the traditional dizi sound; you'll get a standard 6-hole flute sound. The membrane is intended to vibrate a bit, and gives the dizi that unique sound. In addition one can use a glue stick, but it's not the same as dimo glue which dries hard. Most dizi come with dimo included but if not, one should be able to find it reasonably cheap. The average cost of a dizi and all supplies is far less than the cost of most other musical instruments. A beginners dizi can cost from $10 to $30 (professional instruments are of course more). That is dirt cheap for a musical instrument. If one has to pay $5 for a dimo stick, that's still dirt cheap. : ) Thanks for the video. It showed essentials of unpacking the membrane that one would not figure out without instruction.

Thanks snoot , I did notice a difference. I used electrical tape with sticky side facing out so I would not damage the wood. When I moved or stretched the tape (a little) I thought do was different but I have never played any instrument so I was not sure. Your comment has confirmed that I was correct not to stick the tape . I will try to buy membrane material for the correct sound. I am about to buy a $200 dizi or flute ? That is also a staff/sword and spear so the little price of the membrane is nothing if I really want to play nice music. Thank you again ( how can anyone make an instrument this cheap and be so nice 😁?) Just found membrane on eBay 5 pieces for €3.45 🤣😂👍 Glue €2.40 🤣👍

I read in a comment here or on another video, if you cover the hole with a strip of grocery store plastic bag, then tape it down tight on all 4 sides, it sounds very close to having a traditional dimo across it. It works very well, at least for practicing and learning

I've been looking at buying a dizi from Amazon -- one that seems well made, comes in a choice of keys, includes a hard carrying case and a bag for the assembled instrument, a packet of dimo, and a gelatin block. I couldn't tell from the illustrations which hole was to to covered with the dimo and which was for blowing, but you've made it clear. For the price, I'm now certain I'll get one -- black bamboo in key of C, the tonal range I've loved for more than half a century. I've wanted to play a flute since I was a small child, but could never afford the complicated metal/mechanical Western flutes (even a student instrument is hundreds of dollars); I have a ceramic one of the five-hole variety, but could never consistently get a tone from it (probably a combination of incorrect embrasure and a too-soft edge on the blow hole). I bought a book twenty years or so ago about making a flute from plastic pipe, but never got around to building one. Recently, I've been wavering between a shakuhachi and a dizi, but I prefer a transverse instrument with a full scale, so the dizi wins (and costs half as much for a beginner instrument as even the cheap plastic shakuhachi I've seen).

I received the glue Ejiao but no membrane material ? I did not want to damage the wood or permanently stick celotape so I used electrical tape, but I turned the sticky side of the tape outward and made a full band around the dizi . It stays in place like a elastic band. This way I can remove it when I get the correct material. I don't know if this is unnecessary but I want to protect the dizi. Thank you for explaining the glue ! I did not know what this item was for 🤔🤣. I practice a little each day, Please can you show which fingers should cover the holes ? 谢谢,新年快乐 Xièxiè, xīnnián kuàilè

The cellophane tape won't damage the dizi. In fact, when you apply the membrane later, you may need to dab some water around it. Also, when the membrane becomes loose, you may want to dab a little water to wet the ejiao and then pull the membrane tight.

When the membrane tears, you need to replace it. If it loosens you get an ugly sound - you will know when you hear it. The membrane also is visibly loose on inspection. Just dab some water to around the hole of the membrane to wet it then stretch it taut and let it dry.

If you don't cover the hole, you won't be able to make any sound. It is just like the western recorder that has a hole underneath but it has to be covered at all times. The membrane has to be used (and never ever use cellophane tape as it is too thick) as it is very thin and allows the air to vibrate it like how singers vibrate their vocal cords to create a vibrato effect.

So I know the flute is basically okay. But now I have put on the membrane, like the video says, and now it sounds more like a duck with a cold. Can any of you guess what I did wrong?

Don't worry. Try using a cellophane tape for a start. It is easier. Later, you can change to using the dimo.

@@realcolifetina1871 You could try either G or D. G is shorter in length but higher pitched. Whereas, the D is longer in length but lower pitched. For small hands, the G is easier. There are many low cost dizis around maybe you can buy both. One G and one D dizi for her.

@@lovelygab91 A common mistake is to try to close the holes with the fingertips. That makes it difficult to reach all the holes comfortably. The correct technique for dizi is that you can use any part of the finger to close the holes. That makes it easier to reach any hole.
