I recently starting experimenting with a bunch of staples I bought a few years ago. The staples are made by "Singing dog double reed" and they don't work on my Howarth XL oboe. I have made a bunch of reeds on these staples and I am finding it difficult to play in the lower register. Usually the lower register of Howarths is effortless and free, but with these staples it is slow to respond and when the notes finally speak they are "dull" and lack depth.
Has anyone else had this problem with staples not working on certain oboes? I have tried to chamfer the end of the staple, this helps to a degree but the problem is too great for this to be the remedy.
To the Howarth players, what staples have you found work the best?
