Re: Shaper Tip and Tuning

Thanks for the help,

Looks like this will just have to be a bit of trial and error. It seems like the situation is all so dependent on the individual situation.

Luckily I have some free time this month, and some cane to burn, so that's what I'll be working on. I also still need to address my technique on scraping the back. I have finally sorted out the tip/blend/heart situation, so just that last area to complete.

This is all coming from trying to get low register response, especially at pp, or at least p. It's definitely due to my reed scrape/shape, so I'll be making adjustments, and then test them with low register response and then tuning across the range of the instrument. Will probably go through a bit of cane on this one.

My waste basket looked a bit empty anyhow.

Drew S.
