Re: Great reeds but a little flat?

If you don't mind taking advice from someone still learning, have you tried scraping the corners of the heart? I have attached a picture to show the exact areas I'm talking about (the areas are in red). I feel the top two corners (toward the tip) focus a raucous reed and make it lighter. The bottom two corners (toward the staple) bring out the 2nd octave crow and round out the tone (and may even bring up the pitch, I'm still working on this).

Good luck

Drew S.
