Agreed.... it should be slightly loose.... just a tad 'under-adjusted'.

And I mean very slightly.... play testing ill prove that out.

And it will have a subtle effect on your reeds. Both are needed for it to work well.

So give it a few weeks to really settle in.

I have one oboe with and one w/o and I vastly prefer the one with the facilitator.

Other-wise, I slip my half-hole finger quickly, lifting it to vent the key) then replace it very quickly which Mr. Mack taught me.

That technique however did nit seem to influence the reed properties the way the Philly key did.
