Re: low notes - attack

One thing I do which works for me to get a pp attack (and to play at pp level in the lower register) is push upwards with the right thumb so the reed is putting more pressure on the top lip and also use a fairly firm embouchure for the low notes.

Try that out and see if it works for you.
