Actually you have to inhale, not blow out; exhale. Then you see how long the horn seals for. A decent horn should seal for maybe 15 seconds at least. With cork pads in the upper register my horns will seal for well over a minute. Regular pads set correctly will seal for 45 seconds. I had the honor of studying with the great Hans Moennig in Philly. He's throw out 5 to 10 pads before be got that perfect seal, but pads are much better now. He did you cork pads in the upper registers and on 2 keys in the lower register. If you are in the US I will look at it.

If you are uncertain send the horn to me and I will check it free of charge. I do not have much time to do a fantastic repair as I'm already way behind with symphony work and making mouthpieces and I'm designing a new mold.
