Hello,
You should experiment with reed placement on the carriage. I find the best results for me are to angle the reed slightly, with the butt of the reed toward the center of the carriage and the outside ear lined up with the metal guide and the extreme outside edge.
After I've played a reed (Canyes Xilema) for a couple of days, any warpage or change in dimensions is corrected by the Reed Wizard and a piece of glass with fine sandpaper (1200 grit) for the back of the reed. 15 seconds and the reed is ready to play again.
