 Adjustment Problem Octave C
Author: mjfoboe 
Date:   2011-09-02 23:30

Hi,


My Octave C is "raspy" - "buzzy" and not playing clear and through and not holding a stable pitch ..........

The B is fine, the A is fine --- the C# is good - however, the Bb is raspy too although a little less -

Where is the problem lurking??????

No water in the octave vent .......... (although that sound would be "bubbly").

Suggestions .............

Mark

Maybe dirt in a tone hole vibrating?....?

Unfortunately ruined three new reeds - without realizing they were not the problem - YUCH
