does your band all tune from the tuner or by chord tuning.......do you just pull
the barrel in and out or other areas......

maybe its just the note your tuning on.......i have one note that is terrible so i
dont "tune" on that one.... i tune chordally then i dont have as far to go with
that one "bad"
note....

i have discovered that if im in group that relies on tuner = 0 then i always have
to adjust astronomically....becuz it seems like the further down the line from the
root the more you have to adjust.......

different reeds have helped some.....once i pulled the bell out a little and that
helped alot........i guess its just trial and error till you find the right push
pull combination..

i think thats why i prefer chord tuning....from bottom to top or tuba to flute....
