I've been playing on reeds harder than normal for a long time. I practice in a very echo-y room. All hardwood floors and using hard reeds made it sound dark and rich. However, as I practiced in a practice room, I realized that it wasn't dark but dull and fuzzy. I've recently been training myself to use softer reeds and life has been so much better. I don't have bit marks on my inner lower lip from biting so hard, tonguing has never been easier, and it is just more enjoyable to play in general. I only have one problem. When I play, I sound very bright and harsh. It sounds like I have been playing on 4 reeds my whole life and have just been given a 2 reed. It's very bright, and has that soft reed sound where everything sounds all blatty and reedy. Does anyone have any solution to this?
