dear frustrated beginner

low D isn't easy in the beginning

do you have caps over all the finger holes on your oboe, some with holes in them and others no holes in them, or do you have rings that fit around open tone holes?

do you have two left pointy end pinky keys and a linkage to make a cap cover a big hole on the bell?

unclear what you mean by low A or Bb, low A (2 ledgers below Treble staff) isn't available on oboes

as a very rough guess, it may be that you're opening one of the octave keys in your attempt to get your fingers to cover the holes properly
