 reeds with weird middle register
Author: claire70

I've only recently started making my own reeds, so still feel like a newbie at it. Some of them come out okay, but a good portion of them (maybe a third) have some kind of 'weirdness' around the C-an-octave-above-middle-C area. The note is reluctant to come out, and is stuffy and flat when it does. It is particularly noticeable on C, but is also there a bit on B and C-sharp too.

I don't think it's my oboe, as it only happens on certain reeds! Any ideas what is causing this?
