Multitask effortlessly on your PC or Mac as you try out Ocarina, a Entertainment app by Leugim Starwind on BlueStacks.
Ocarina feels like a tiny instrument table that lives on the screen. It is not only an ocarina. There are pipes that sound like trumpets, a simple drum pad, a guitar, and a harp that is still in beta with a few built in tunes. Notes last for about five seconds and fade out soft, which makes everything feel less harsh and more musical. The cool trick is pitch control. Hold a note and slide the pitch while it rings, or set how quickly sounds decay so hits are short or long. There is a toggle for song recognition too, so a person can let the app try to guess a tune or turn that off and just noodle around freely. The background can be swapped anytime, even a custom picture if someone wants the app to look more personal.
On a PC with BlueStacks, it works well because tapping with a mouse or mapping keys makes double inputs easier, so changing pitch while holding a note is not a fight. The bigger screen helps with hitting the right spots without crowding fingers together. It supports English, Spanish, French, Italian, and Japanese, which is handy for menus. Older Android versions may not handle the two button pitch stuff, and some devices with basic audio chips can pop or click if pushed too fast. Lowering volume helps. There is an immersive mode that hides the navigation bar on newer Androids, though on desktop that is not really a thing people need.
BlueStacks gives you the much-needed freedom to experience your favorite apps on a bigger screen. Get it now.
